From first impressions to ‘finding your tribe’, identities are formed, projected, assumed and reinforced in an increasingly image-conscious world. How would our experience of identity (ethnic, gender, sexual, ableness, age etc.) differ in a hypothetical non-physical world where we were not constantly assuming identities – voluntarily or otherwise – based on aspects of our physical appearance?

I’m a traveller, and as an Indian, I find travelling beyond India quite challenging due to Visa restrictions. This is a symptom of a larger problem. Till the time there are boundaries, there are going to be conflicts. The direction of history has been towards unification, we have far less independent political sovereignities today in the world than ever in history, but world unification still seems elusive. Is it going to happen anytime soon?

i made this question because i would like to see Yanis+SYRIZA again as they was.

Because life is short and I was considering how to make the most of my time here. Since learning holds a large part of the value of living- at least in my eyes- I am wondering what knowledge I shall gain and share that will be most beneficial to me and my fellow earthlings.

I am asking this because so many people use freedom without using equality, and we have lost effective ways of raising the tensions between them. But this tension is the essence of politics.

I think men would be better human beings if we could discuss our health and mental issues amongst ourselves (like women do).

Similar to avoiding the important by tackling the urgent. Both citizens and pollies do it, more than is good for us, don’t we?

I am very interested in working withholder people who are interested in planning for their end of life decision making and this is the BIG issue that keeps being discussed.

I am fascinated by individuals’ inability/unwillingness to take full responsibility for their choices, especially when it comes to looking after themselves.

I’m annoyed by the illogical and racist emails that I receive from friends whose parents or grandparents came here as so called economic migrants or refugees. Ever since people like Pauline Hanson have come on the scene I’ve seen a change in our culture. I’m sure most Australians don’t want to live in a racist country.
