The next highest cardholder becomes the Vice-President, and so on and so forth until the player holding the lowest card becomes affectionately known as the Asshole. In the event that two or more players draw the same value card, have those players draw again so that their position can be determined. However, if one of the players involved in a second dr ...

... 2] and the third would be [4 0 2] which we will call A. Using this information we can define the determinant as being the sum of all possible elementary signed products from A. This can only be achieved if A is an n x n matrix, where n represent the number of rows and columns. The signed elementary products of A can be defined as 1 when the permutation of the elementary products is even and -1 when the permutation of the elementary products is odd (Hughes-Hallet 20). These two numbers are then multiplied by their respective permutation and the whole lot is added together. When all calculations are said and done this results in a number for matrix A, in this case -5 ...

... Then asked their definition of normal and they say "themselves". I asked one such person those two questions then asked him if the guy sitting near him was normal and he responded ‘Yes.’ But, that struck a cord for me. I stated that he wasn’t him.

In the past I’ve been called a freak, sometimes they even said a freak of nature. But what do they know what a freak is. Their is no such thing as a freak. Some people would say ...

... All human beings are classified by their biological and psychological sex. A biological man is a person born with the male genitalia, as a biological woman is a person born with the female genitalia. A biological male person along with a biological female person are needed to reach the goal of biological sexuality: procreation. On the other hand, a psychologically male person is a person that believes he or she is a male and vice versa for a psychologically female person. Psychological sexuality is about the personality traits that distinguish many men and women. For example, women are often more intuitive than men. Men often are better at spatial relationsh ...
