Let's not start the men versus women differences debate again. It is
insulting to women in this forum to claim that men are better handling
money and women prefer to shop. It is insulting to the intellectuals in
this forum to trot out little pet theories without any evidence or
data. it is insulting to all readers of this forum to stir up a
divisive topic that had just barely died down.

If you really must debate this, I suggest you take it off line. Debates
over which gender handles money better does not seem particularly
Extropian or of general interest to most of our readers.
