<Beating Sobolewski to the punch> WOW! RAOTFLMAO!

Women are free and equal and doing all sorts of *** that they used not
to be doing and they own guns to shoot men with and all that ***...

????? I'd like to suggest that the more we evolve (provided that men
won't blow up the friggen planet) that the more women will have
opportunity to do all the things that men do....incluing shooting guns,
but that doesn't mean that women will CHOOSE to be as violent, and I
don't think they will (but that's just my opinion).


...and they're held back by FEAR OF TESTING?????????????????

Sure. Women are more cooperative than competitive; it stands to
reason that they might fear testing more than men.

RAOTFLMAO con BRIO!

???? Well, if you really want a good laugh, it appears that men fear
telling the truth more than women. :-)

If women fear tests, then the tests have to be eliminated in the name
of "equality" because the tests make women unequally situated. Right?
Right?

I don't think testing should be "eliminated" but already colleges are
placing more importance on actual academic contributions than on
testing. It seems to me that some rudimentary testing should be
applied before one could ....say...become the president of the United
States. I mean, it would be darned nice if our president could parse a
correct sentence together, don't you think?

The tests aren't really testing true cognation tho. What if the person
being tested was raised by gorillas....do you really think that person
would test as highly as one raised near Stanford? :-)

It would probably test more highly than one raised near Aromas. How's
the poor abused David Scott Hemingway doing?

I don't know. Why don't you look him up and ask him?
