Quoting SERA_2005: I don't think that is necessarily corruption it could just be that they are not very good at their job and need sorting out at groud level. |
I can only speak for the UK, but it would be very rare indeed to find corruption in registered charities. Sadly the corruption exists in the aid country's government who invariably steal the aid or prevent it from reaching the needy for political reasons.

Quoting girleegirl: Quoting Elisabeth:
I personally don't feel this is a womans rights issue so much as a human rights issue. |
Aren't women humans? If human rights is the basis of this belief are you saying the unborn child is more human than the woman who is carrying it?
|
Girlee, I was just pointing out that it is more than just something women should be concerned with. All humans should be informed about abortion....Maybe human/womans RIGHTS wasn't the right verbiage....sorry for the confusion.

Quoting vineyards: Yes, there is corruption but I am sure there are decent organizations as well. Corruption being used as an excuse to stay away from charity is a very annoying thing. |
Of course, the fact that corruption exists is not an excuse to not be involved in charitable ventures, but I do think one has an obligation to research just where and how things are being used, rather than just sending money or resources into a blank hole.
For instance, I would look for where the fish or ducks are before throwing bread on the water.

Quoting AEnigma III:
In MY humble opinion, people who say "in my humble opinion" are not humble at ALL in their opinions! It reminds me of that well-worn phrase "No disrespect to you but...." where the person then goes on to completely disrespect someone!!
Such pre-qualifying statements are a good warning that entirely the opposite is about to take place!!!!

Quoting AEnigma III: Quoting AEnigma III: The ACTUAL facts are that one THIRD of women seeking abortion are married. This figure is for the west - the percentage is higher in the east. |
...and, I guess this figure would be even higher if it were not for the fact that married women gradually have sex less often than single ones!  |
Really? Interesting!

They tend to have less sex in a time in their lives when getting pregnant is no longer possible. The final indignity of a womans life! |
Really? Is that so? Who wants to become pregnant at 50 and who said you have less when sex?

I agree with you Libralady, just because a woman can no longer become pregnant doesnt mean that she stops having sex,heaven forbid she might actually enjoy it!

Actually my comment had nothing to do with age. The fact is that the longer you are in a relationship, the less you have sex - whether you are 19 or 99

It is certainly not what I WANT to think at all
However, talk to anyone who has been in a relationship for 10 years or more (sometimes a LOT less) and ask them if they are as passionate as they were during the first few years
