Now Richard! I humbly disagree. With my extensive experience with women 
(some of it relatively successful in the sense that I really think I 
learned something from them -- particularly my wife and daughter) I am 
convinced that women experience, see, and think about the world 
differently from the ways men do, and that men can actually benefit by 
paying attention to it.

I don't like to say things like "that's the silliest of all the silly 
things you have said on buddha-l" so I won't.

Stay dry.
