Jenny, if you will take your FemiNazi blinders off, you will find that males
require desire, enthusiasm and talent to be selected as race car driver's
too. Can you not acknowledge and accept that there _ARE_ differences in the
sexes? There is no societal conspiracy against women, at least not here in
the US. There are just differences as God intended. The president of
Harvard attempted to acknowledge this and was skewered by the FemiNazi's.
