Tenchusatsu, so what about Ellison? On another note, even for well-intentioned families, what if their focus doesn't match what our American society needs? The immune disorders (Lupus, polymetriosis, etc.) which are are majority inflicted on women (something like 80% patients are women), don't get the fair treatment for funding, according to a report from the midwest analyzing funding on illnesses. Maybe society should have a say in funding allocations for such illnesses, in the face of this discrepancy. It wasn't until THIS year, that the medical association released heart attack guidelines for women - never mind the fact that this is the # 1 killer for women and their symptoms are different than men. The Association was telling doctors to basically ignore the major warning signs that women have - to tell them it's in their head. Talk about blatant discrimination, albeit unintentional If women controlled 50% of the world's capital (rather than only 2%), we'd see a very, very different world. This is where the opportunity is.
