Cogitator's definitions
The term varies a lot between contexts, so, to avoid looking like a dumbass, I'll stick with the ones I know.
#1: Liberal, adjective, non-political.
Stating using a large dosage of something or having mostly nonrestrictive views about issues such as sex or religion.
Example: I used a liberal amount of sugar to make those cookies. I am fairly liberal when it comes to what Church I go to. I am liberal and venturesome in the bedroom.
#2: Liberal, adjective, political.
Example:
Due to the sheer amounts of hate and propoganda floating around here, I will try to be as objective as possible.
Liberals are generally on the left side of the political spectrum. This is the same side as communists, fascists, and socialists. However, most liberals are not communists, or fascists, or socialists to any significant degree. Communism is to the far end of Liberalism. It is about the destruction of all class and property distinctions between people, like China during the Great Leap Forward. Fascism is a strong, centrist dictatorship, but is not communist. An example would be Suddam Hussein's Iraq.
See below to continue.

Socialism is the blanket term that most accurately describes what many moderate liberals believe. It is like a watered-down form of communist in it's media-presented form. However, it is not that simple. It is about the government and the people aiding one another and distributing supplies and wealth according to a system. The degree of socialism ranges strongly, from almost non-existent levels such as in ancient Rome's alimentia, which was free bread and vegetable soup to the poor. The extreme end would be Hitler's Germany, which had programs for the betterment of certain Germans. It brought the country out of WW1, but it turned essentially fascism with social security.
I think I've said enough. If you haven't figured it out already, I am a Liberal. Thats the end of part 1. I'd post more, but someone implemented limits on how long entries can be.

Both of them have history stretching back to the sixties. Which of them is better?
The answer: I don't care; Porsche 911 smokes them both to hell anyways.

Get the muscle carmug. Men who are short, which means under the average height of around 5'10'', or approximately 178 centimeters, or 1.78m. Short men are just that: short. They are not any less of a man than Mike Tyson. Short men are found in every region and culture, and are as varried as the taller models. Penis size is not a component of height, nor is maniness. Short guys often have trouble getting girls due to the natural female desire to find a man who can protect her and provide for her and her children. However, short men are great to hug, being at perfect height to cuddle into the breasts of the average woman, and during sex, this can be used for simultaneous stimulation of the breasts and vulva.
A list of short men who kicked ass:
Mikhail Kalashnikov, J.R.R. Tolkien, the ancient Romans, Napoleon Bonaparte, James Madison, Alexander the Great, Cicero Richard Hammond, Jackie Chan, Admiral Yamamoto, Suzuhara Bokuden, Musashi, Claudius, and many others. I myself am a short guy, and i have to tell you that it sucks. I'm only 5'4''. Getting a girlfriend is nearly impossible, unfortunately. However, I have managed to score cute and novelty points. So remember my sub-pint comerades: you cram more manliness into your 5' than they do in their 6'5''. Short people rule!
