To save the society on edge of slippery slope, those in power are always trying to solve, or at least, alleviate social problems like crimes, depravity, discrimination, lacking of responsibility, laziness and so on. Those existing social problems are the most significant hot irons, which, if not been paid enough notice and treated as soon as possible, will soon grow into lethal cancers of the society.

The society is always on changing, so are the social problems rooted in it. As the society grows into a complex, multiply stratified one with diversified ideas, values, beliefs and sub-cultures, social problems are inevitably growing from the initially simple, polarized ones into more acrimonious and confusing ones which cannot be labeled as right or wrong any more. In such a dilemma, the authority of the society has to allocate more money for those immediate, existing social problems, in that more intellects and labors are needed to develop specified and fair social disciplines, to supervise and guarantee the exacting of these rules, to help people establish healthy personalities and sound minds, to lay an iron-hand on the violation of laws, and to achieve a subtle balance between different groups of the society.

Yet we should never blunder neglecting importance of the long term research, which might not only help future generations, but also help ourselves. Some social problems, especially those of ethics and values, are deep rooted and not so easily be solved in near future. They may take years, decades or even generations to be excavated and eliminated, gradually. Maybe no fast or brilliant outcomes can be seen when investment is made to this kind of social problems, however, if we never make the very first step, these problems will never be solved. Though these problems seem to be inert and have no fatal impacts to the current society, the fail to conduct them or at least keep them under proper control will easily exacerbate them to some latent dangers.

If we look inside both those acute and chronic social problems, we will find, to some extent, the latter are where the former actually arise from. In other word, those immediate, existing social problems are bombs made from the gun-powder store of those chronic problems. The research of the long term problems will largely help people to understand the immediate, existing ones, thus to have a better solutions to them.

Society is a continuously developing one which cannot be broken up in any specific point. It is important to allocate enough money to the immediate social problems, while it is also necessary to pay enough attention to the long-term ones. Only when a good balance is kept well between the two can the society have a stable present and stable future.

I’ve seen a few questions claiming that men have more power than women. This is sometimes claimed to be a result of discrimination, sometimes a result of society, sometimes a result of history…

Whatever the cause, my question is simple: What can people (particularly the average individual) do to make it so that women and ethnic minorities have an equal opportunity to hold a position of power in society?
Actually sashali, I am half black, and a victim of the hierarchy.

By the way Jasumi, how can one person eliminate all stereotypes? Is it enough to avoid using them oneself, or should one also discourage others from doing so if one hears them?

What if the stereotypes are perpetuated by a minority and directed toward a white male?

What is the Red Hat Society and how long has it been in existence? How did this group get started and how can I join? These questions will be answered in Part One of this article.

The Red Hat Society is sometimes referred to as a “dis-organization” because there are so few requirements and rules. Many organizations have lots of guidelines and rules to follow. This is not what the Red Hat Society is all about.

This group is mostly about women over 50 having a great time and making new friendships. The chapters are open to all women and there is no discrimination allowed. It is a group that caters to older women although women under 50 are allowed to be part of the fun. Instead of wearing a red hat and purple clothing, those under 50 wear pink hats and lavender attire.

The Red Hat Society was begun by a woman named Sue Ellen Cooper. Sue Ellen and a few of her friends got the idea from a poem entitled, “Warning” which mentions wearing a red hat and purple clothing while growing old. The group has evolved into an organization that has over one million members worldwide. The Red Hat Society was established in 1998.

You can join an existing group or start a chapter in your area. All of the membership information is available online and it is easy to join or begin a new chapter. If you are looking for an existing chapter in your area you will be able to find out all about it on the website.

A regular membership is a possibility and this allows for activities, fun and partial access to the Red Hat Society online community. There is a purple perks membership that is available. When you sign up to receive this type of membership you will qualify for discounts and special benefits.

The Red Hat Society is a wonderful experience for older women. Who says getting older is no fun?
