Are seniors allowed to take freshman to prom if theyre going out?
thanks. (link)
For most schools, yes. You should be allowed to invite anyone you want, as far as I know.

my boobs itch REALLY badly. they have lately. what's going on? is this normal? (link)
If they itcjh because of the quality of your skin (rash, dry skin, etc.) then use moistreizer, or change the fabiric softener/laundry detergent you use to wash your bra (you could be allergic). If the skin is fine and they just itch for no reason, then they are just growing. I've had that happen to me. Its very normal.


first off is there anyway to get an STD if you dont do anything sexual? cuz my friend has never done anything like that and apparently she has an STD...how does that work? T H A N K S !
(link)
Yes, there are some STDs you can get from your mother, so you are born with them. You can also get some STDs by using a dirty needle. Basically, stuff like HIV/AIDS is passed through the bloodstream and other bodily fluids (not saliva), so if you get blood in you from a person who has the deisease you will then get it. Hope I helped.

i have an essay/ report to doo on dieting and im doing crash dieting in a few paragraphs.
what are some foos that people usually mostly focus on when crash dieting?

thanks (link)
Low calorie, low sodium foods such as cottage cheese, grapefruit and celery. Celery actually has negative calories. The average celery stick has 7 calories and you burn about 9 calories eating it. So, you burn about 2 calories. My friend was on a crash diet for a while and one of the things that tipped us all off was that she basically ate celery for breakfast, lunch and dinner. So, yeah lettuce too I guess. Hope I helped.

i was going to the bathroom and i looked at my underwear and there was bright yellow & light yellow stuff on it .. i know what discharge is and i usally have that but this is different .. what is it?

13/f (link)
It could be a yeast infection, it could be some other vaginal infection or it could just be an irregularity in the discharge. Discharge colour and consistency varies with every girl and the time of month that it is. Discharge changes with how fertile the girl is. Still, bright yellow is probably not a healthy colour. You should go see a doctor, I know it'll probably be embarrassing, but a tiny bit of embarrasment is nothing compared to a vaginal infection. If this yellowish stuff is reoccuring, then definetly see a doctor, watch for it. I hope everything works out.

i really dont know who i am...

sometimes i feel happy and i want to wear designers and bright colors.

sometimes i feel stupid and i feel like wearing baggy pants and black.

sometimes i feel like a laid back skater punk and i want to wear DC and converse....

tough one, right. can i keep switching like this??? WHAT DO I DO! (link)
Listen to me, wear whatever the hell you want to. If you feel like dressing up and wearing vibrant colours one day and baggy clothes and all black the other, then do it. Its your body and you get to choose what to put on it. You don't have to dress or act one way. People have different sides to themselves and you should be able to express every part of you how and when you like. Don't worry about it. if its really an identity crisis that you're going through then think about this: you're young (I'm assuming) and part of being young is finding out who you and experimenting with that. You will understand yourself better and better as you get older and establish who you are, what you are good at and everything. Don't worry about this. Expressing how you feel one day through, fashion, etc. is your right and completely normal. I hope you feel better

if i realli like this guy is it wrong to ask him out?? (link)
Of course not. Its 2006, he will probably think its cool that you had enough courage and confidence to make the first move. Good Luck!!

I just got MSN messanger, (the new version) and i was talking to someone about something i shouldn't have. is there ANY way that any one, even i, could find conversations i had. There was this thing that came up saying "do you want your conversations saved" and i said no but just in case i messed up. Where would i find the conversations anyway?
PLEASE help!!!! (link)
No, conversations will not save if you press "no". If you are really worried, like maria said, look in your documents or conversation history. It won't have saved by itself.


Does coffee make you lose weight or gain weight? Does it have any effect at all? (link)
There is no fat in most coffee (I don't know about calories, though). Its really what you put into your coffee. Cream and sugar can add a LOT of excess fat and calorie content, you may want to google it. Remember that coffee is like anything else, it will give you the energy to function, but if you don't use up the energy (exercise) then the excess will be stored as fat. I'm no coffee expert, so you may want to google it.


Hey .. does anyone know some good websites where i can just listen to music ? Not from xanga or anything .. most of them dont work anyway. But please if you can give me some sites thatd be awesome ! Thanks .. (link)
I usually go to launch.com, its pretty good


Hey, ok well ok im 14, and i recently lost my virginity a few days ago. I didnt use a condom, and im scared. Do you think i could be pregnant? But we probably only had sex for a minute. Please help im wooooried!! (link)
If the guy came then, yes, you could be pregnant. You should get a home pregnancy test, watch for your period (if it is late then that is a sign) and always ALWAYS use a condom when you're hving sex. I know it isn't the most spontaneous thing in the world, but please use protection, okay? I hope it all works out.

Whenever I have to speak infront my class, by myself, I get really nervous. I feel like I am going to throw up or faint. I know, it's really embarassing. So, do you have any tips on what I should do to not get nervous? Or anything I should say to myself so I won't be nervous? Thank you in advance. (link)
People have different ways of dealing with this sort of stuff. I know how you feel because I used to have awful stage fright, I go to an arts school for vocal an drama so I had to learn how to overcome this stuff too. If there is a person in your class that you feel comfortable with then make eye contact with them and pretend that you're talking only to them. If you don't think that will work you can just stare at the wall at the back of the room, just a bit over everyone's heads, that way it sort of looks like you're making eye contact, but you don't have to look at the people. The main thing is to find a way to ignore the people there that works for you. I have other tricks, but those are the two that I use the most. I know its difficult, but sometimes you just have to take a deep breath and take the plunge. If you want to know more tricks just ask. Hope I helped.

this will sound stupid but do u have to take your tampon out when u pee? and is it possible to apply a tampon incorectly? (link)
you don't have to take a tampon out when you pee, nothing happens to the tampon itself because pee comes out of a different hole than where the tampon is. the string on the outside will get pee on it though, so it might be a little soggy, but youe don't have to take the tampon out. It is possible to apply a tampon incorrectly. You'll know if you do because it will hurt or be uncomfortable. if you put it in properly you shouldn't even be able to feel it. hope I helped if you have any more questions drop them in my box.

i got mi period last month and this is my second month and it started up again last night and there is a lot i mean ALOT of blood from my period it seems to be uncontrolable is that normal!? ( and when i woke up in my pad the blood was all over the place)! sorry this is kinda gross

ill rate 5's!!!! (link)
thats really normal. it just means you have a heavy flow. its different for everyone. i usually wear a tampon with a pad to bed, but some girls don't like tampons or are scared of getting tss (toxic shock syndrome) you might want to try using overnight pads if you aren't already, they're longer and thicker than normal pads. i hope you get it undercontorl, if you have anymore questions just drop them in my box.

What are some good songs that have to do with friends or friendship? I'm making a CD for my best friend and would like to know some. Thanks! (link)
I've always liked the song "lean on me" by bill withers. Its my favorite friendship song by far. there are a lot of other versions. i also like true colours, by phil collins or cindi lauper. it could be a friendship song. this are the ones i would use. hope i helped.


Ok..well the other day my best friend came over. We were in my room listening to music. I dontreally remember what happened much but we basically ended up kissing and doing other sexual things. Were both girls. I really like guys..but what I did felt good. I've never liked girls..but after what I did with my best friend, I just dont know. Were both 14. HELP!! am i lesbian? I like guys..but hooking up with girls doesnt sound bad either.. (link)
If you like both guys and girls then you are probably bisexual. If you only really did that with that one girl you might just being experimenting with your sexuality. If you are attracted to both then you might be bisexual. Its not a bad thing, it might just be the way you are. Don't stress too much about it. If you get really worried there are a lot of support groups for gay, lebian and bisexual teens. Hope I helped and I hope you figure it all out!

Well Its always been my dream to make a cd and have it in stores and like all that stuff! well I have gotten this offer and I can get this thing its like a record deal.. you make a cd and everything and it goes in stores ALL over the world.. but its just to see how many people will like you.. and id make about $7,000.. which is like nothing.. but if alot of people got my cd.. Id get an actualy record deal and more money.. so my question is.. Should I go for that or should I just make a demo and send it to a bunch of record lables and then try to get signed by a big record lable?

please and thanks
maddie (link)
i think you should go for it and even if it doesn't sell that well you will have a good demo to send out to record companies to try to get signed. if nothing else this chance will let you gain insight into the music industry and how music is made, edited and all that jazz. Be very carful that you aren't getting scammed and make sure you look over any documents VERY carfully before signing. Good Luck in your career.

my skin, like on most of my body is covered in (little) bumps. ive had them my whole like but i dont kno what they are and personally, all i want to do is get rid of them! i hate it. its not a rash or anything like that but it wont go away with lotions, exfoliation, or creams, or anything else i have tried. plz help me!!! i rate 5's!!!!! (link)
my friend had that condition on her arms, legs, back and chest. I forget what its called, though. You should go see a dermatoligit. If you don't know a dermatoligist than you can go to your doctor and they should be able to reccomend someone.

can people see who asks the question on advicenators? i mean like i'm asking this question, can anyone find out that it's me?

thanks (link)
only level 2 and 3 moderators have acess to that information. most people cant see who you are, though. if you're that worried about it you can go to a specific advice column and ask them without logging in, but you'll have to check back with their column and the answer you get wont show up on the side bar. i wouldnt be that worried though. no one really cares that much and the moderators arent going to torment you, you'll be fine.
