Since I like Juanita, I did not pick with this, but I will add that I would rather my son be an artist than a soldier...

Hahaha!

Good reply, nuke! I was waiting for someone to make that rebuttal.
What? You didn't mention Albright?

I still think that the vast majority of victims in any war are the women. No ordinary, run of the mill mother is EVER going to ask for a war...not in my opinion anyway.

And did you know there was a Greek play written one time about a group of women who tried to get their men to stop fighting by withholding their favors? It was a pretty good story.

Some believe that war is to a male as childbirth is to a female.

In any case everything men do revolves around what women have. Most women just don't want to realize that because it means too much responsibility. The myth of male control allows women to pull the strings without ever being held accountable.

If we ever do have open matriarchy, at least women won't have anyone to blame their problems on any more. This is probably why so few women actually want that; they appear to enjoy being the "morally superior sex" in the current arrangement.

Maybe women simply are weak, and not happy unless pleasing a man. In general they certainly seem to hold the trump card of sexual superiority while trying to ignore that fact.

Maybe what they have isn't really sexual superiority, but only social superiority. This would explain their lack of desire/ability to change things. Innate female sexual superiority would cut to the core of nature while social superiority would only be an artificial construct.

FWIW
