Hi Tejek, RE: "China has bigger problems. Have you heard of the one child rule in China" Yes, I think it's an excellent rule. It's better than billions of people dieing from starvation. Somehow "freedom of choice" rings hollow if it creates starvation thru overpopulation. RE: "Many a gov't has been overthrown by a generational cohort that is predominately male." Guys aren't that bad : ) RE: "the cohort that grows up short of women tends to be more irresponsible, aggressive and rebellious" It does get a bit old to see a world that's nearly 100% composed of only male leaders, nearly 99% of the world's money controlled by men (which means the world has too much one-dimensional influence - I mean, it was only THIS year that the government finally released guidelines for heart-attack symptoms for women, nevermind the fact it is one of the leading killers for women. Until this year they only had guidelines for men! Go figure, and this is in the land of the so-called equality), so the laws truly represent another era and lack equal representation, and the way the world operates can be so one-dimensional. Even our Congress is pack full of men - it was a HUGE thing when a Democractic female younger than 40 joined congress a few weeks ago. England is worse. Their legal system doesn't even have ONE female judge! Can you believe that!? All the judges are men, according to my friend that went to school there the other year. You know how we have, "take your son or daughter to work day." I'd like to see what the world is like, if for ONE week Congress were to be packed full of women, President is replaced by a female for ONE week, and all corporate heads are replaced by female CEOs for ONE week. I believe it would be a huge eye opener, where a lot of useful perspective would be gained. There are huge areas for improvement. Regards, Amy J
