When there's time to burn but no money
Article Abstract:
It was very common in the 1980s for people to work very long hours and earn large sums of money. In the 1990s, people are tending to work fewer hours but also have less money to spend. For some, the transition has been difficult, while others have been able to give up luxuries such as theatre trips and expensive food with few regrets. Adapting to having more time to spare can be hard, as some people only thrive when they are under pressure.

Goodbye Samantha, hello Sam
Article Abstract:
Male-to-female transsexuals are increasing as cross-dressing becomes more accepted. Primary transsexuals are usually beautiful and fine-featured. They usually change sex before adulthood. Secondary transsexuals, often heterosexual married men with children, are more common. They are often extrovert, have masculine careers, and experience a midlife crisis. Female-to-males are tomboyish girls who refuse to wear skirts or dresses.
