Thanks Nadia. That was basically my point in the contributions I
made to the "Political Correctness According To Hugo de Garis" thread. I
believe that some people tend to *want* a rift between genders...be them
male or female. That, I think, is unfortunate. 'Genius' can (obviously,
IMO) be either male or female. If one person says that this fact is
otherwise, I don't understand how the majority of the listeners don't just
brush it off as foolhardy. That is mainly the reason why I wished the
"Political Correctness" thread to be quelled...it is insulting to our
intelligence (again, IMO).
Ingredi Externus!
