hi dealer,

thanks! no it's not a "man thang" wish i had a dime for everytime i've heard some jerk say women don't know anything about the market and just got their money from inheiritance or divorce and are just on the boards to find a rich hubby. LOL. i remember when all the women on yahoo used the neuter on their profiles just so their opinions weren't discarded. hell who says a woman can't have a jackass opinion too. and when i get called a bitch on the boards, i usually say "thank you" and follow with this:

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call
me a bitch.

When I stand up for those I love, they call me a
bitch.
When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts, or do
things my own way, they call me a bitch.

Being a bitch entails raising my children to be strong
people who have a solid sense of personal and social
responsibility, who are not afraid to stand up for
what they believe in and who love and respect
themselves for the beautiful beings they are.

Being a bitch means that I am free to be the wonderful
creature that I am, with all my own intricacies,
contradictions, quirks and beauty.

Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my
heart.
It means I live my life MY way. It means I won't
allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up
against it, I am defined as a bitch.

The same thing happens when I take time for myself
instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a
little selfish.

I am proud to be a bitch! It means I have the courage
and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and
won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I
"should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated, and determined. By God,
I want what I want, and there is nothing wrong with
that!

So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame,
try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me.
You won't succeed.
And if that makes me a bitch, so be it. I embrace the
title and am proud to bear it.
