If that's a fact I wonder if a guy could have a female point of view. If
so, which kind of male arguments could a female produce to convince a
male to give up his 'natural' point of view, if not I fail to see how
you could blame him. I remember a line from Chuang Tse saying that if
there are two points of view any choice means take sides.
Maybe you should redefine your objections. Personally I have always
enjoyed your info an d I hope you'll keep up the good work.
