To Ghudai, Osama and Marwan Al-Rahbani i say SHAME ON YOU.... am super amazed by what these 3 brothers are doing with the great heritage that their dad and uncle have left. (Asi & Mansour al-rahbani) aka Al-Rahbani brothers wouldn't approve of this and they wouldn't have signed all their masterpieces as the Rahbani BROTHERS if they felt like each had his own share of it. Taking Fairouz to court and banning her from singing by warning the theaters and concert managers that they don't have the approval of the Rahbani sons is an outrage. May I remind you that you might have inherited the copyrights but make sure that everyone has inherited Fairouz , Fairouz will live forever through her music and forever she will live in our hearts and this is not the way you treat a lady of this status. Whats even more outrageous and shameful for you Rahbani sons is that many others like the sons of Mohammed Abdulwahab who also inherited copyrights didn't stirr the problems you did and knew that this kind of graceful art belongs to the people before any one else. Another shameful act of the Rahbani sons to actually ignore others who are doing concerts and songs that are also produced by the Rahbani brothers (such as wadie alsafi and melhm barakat) and pursue Fairouz only with their ridiculous law suits. Fairouz is bigger than this and just to annoy the Rahbani sons am gonna go and buy all of her CDs today and rush back all my childhood memories to when my dad used to drop me at my school in the morning on the angelic sound of Fairouz. Fairouz we love you and we can't wait to see you victorious.

Equally Different
A friend of mine was telling me how much she hated the book Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus (don't ask how we got there) and how she felt patronized by the fact that the writer stereotypes all women and how it talks about men and women different ways to tackle life issues and how she felt like it wasn't true. Now i haven't read that book nor will I anytime soon, and I'd like to start by saying that i believe men and women are EQUAL BUT DIFFERENT (hold on don't call me a sexist yet) and when i say equal I mean they both deserve the same opportunities and chances in life and they shouldnt be dealt with as inferior beings but as equals (however if a certain society has double standards favouring men over women doesnt mean i can't enjoy the perks) for those who just went "aah I knw it he IS a sexist!!" I simply mean i wont stop driving just coz you can't so don't read too much into it mkaay.
Physically speaking the differences are very obvious (Shape, size, weight) and only an idiot will argue with that. Usually (yes usually but not always) men have stronger body built, thicker skin, and they bruise less easily then women (don't ask me how studies have concluded that but hopefully no women were injured). Men also have thicker and stronger skulls (yes ladies, men are "thick headed" but am sure you already know). Women prepare to LOVE ME, because i don't know if you are aware of this but studies have showed that women have 4 times as many brain cells -neurons- connecting the right and left hemispheres of the brain. This provieds physical evidence that supports the observation that men rely easily and more heavily on their left brain to solve one problem one step at a time. Women have more efficient access to both sides of their brain and therefore greater use of their right brain. I.E women multitask better and can handle and process and discuss more than one thing at the same time (which explains why mom is always mad at me for not doing all the things she "asked " me to do but hey technically it's not my fault).
Psychologically speaking am sure there are huge differences regarding thinking, dealing with day to day issues, sensitivity, and all sorts of stuff and there are studies to prove that plus the fact that i saw it myself (and my word is good enough). When a group of men work together there's a certain hierarchy, there's always somebody who steps up to lead and sometimes things get competitive. Women how ever don't believe in that they work in a co-equal environment and depend on collective effort (in college the women were devided into groups ,each group had a leader and a bunch of CO-LEADERS to help keep things runing smoothly, the men groups had a leader and a SUB-LEADER). Now here's what really fascinated me a recent Canadian study (yes canadians actually do stuff) showed that when asked to do certain tasks men and women use their brains differently to accomplish the same task in the same manner.
One LAST point coz i dont want to rant on and on about the studies but i have to mention this because lately I've been hearing the phrase "men think with their penises instead of their brains" A LOT. Guess what men are sexually aroused by what they can see while women are aroused by what their brain can relate to. That means when a mans sexo-meter spots a hot woman (tall, large breasts, thin legs blond, tanned whatever floats his boat...) they are sexually attracted but women are less vision-ly turned on and a man must do something to impress her first. This will probably explain why men love going to strip clubs while more women will prefer reading romance novels. This is just because men are constantly searching for visual stimulation while women are searching for mental arousal. Technically speaking it's not mens fault that they are -like cats- attracted to shiny objects.
Even After All

Even After All
- Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, Gay men however moved to Uranus (for obvious reasons)
- They say in order to impress a woman you have to be her lover, her brother (metaphorically speaking you can't be her lover and brother at the same time for even more obvious reasons), her confidant, her shopping buddy, her gossip buddy, the one who listens to her when she needs a listenr, her rock, a shoulder to cry on, her soul mate.
- In order to impress a man .... wear a see through blouse.
