I don't understand the correlation. Of course they are but that is another discussion and like you said I too don't want to piss on any MORE shoes. I can only handle one controversy at a time....on line. Cheers Mel

Oh, I remember what I was thinking. If it's taken as a given that if you are a white male, you are gonna be on top, but you aren't, you are kinda marginal, what is the reaction? Some white men, and I am thinking of a few I have known in my time, get this kinda Archie Bunker reaction, lashing out at the people who are supposed to be on the bottom, women and minorities. Even if they can't dominate other white men, maybe they can jack themselves higher on the totem pole that way. That's the train of thought.
