Raymond, the guy that said the world was round got killed for saying it. Humans can be very intolerant to new ideas. Even good ideas.

Unfortunately change can be very slow - people are stuck with the slower pace others can handle, not the fast pace many of us may want. This is especially frustrating for people like me that are female with a high level of awareness of various aspects where there exists an inequality in our society (e.g. medical gender research - this year was the first year they announced the symptoms for heart attacks for women even though it is the #1 killer of women, only 2% of money is controlled by women, our country never had a female President, etc.)

If we suddenly had a female President (Republican or Democrat), it's possible she could be assassinated by someone and maybe all of us here on the thread would be amazed such a person exists like that in our country. But such people do exist in our country. They hold the country behind.

Regards,
Amy J
