Yeah. That doesn't offer a quiz.

@Clod: what an awesome idea.

I see Schopenhauer, in a posh German drawing room, mimicking the blind man describing the elephant. He knows jack-shit about women... except they may scare him.

Tell me again about these intellectually short-sighted, crafty perjurers, with no sense of justice. Do you mean the ones who tamed North America, Australia, and South Africa? Yeah, delicate flowers that bunch.


Oh, you say, they were just a handful of women who chose to pioneer, and not representative.

OK, I'll bet these ladies from the more civilized towns and cities of each continent's coasts, could cook supper, change the baby, and kick your ass at the same time.



I watched my grandmother, and her peers, do an incredible amount of work, day in and day out. No electricity, no conveniences, heating/cooking with wood, and for the first 50 years, no running water. Doctor? Say what? The butter & egg money doesn't allow for a doctor, unless we can't staunch the bleeding.

Wait, was his point that women were strong, but men stronger?
Nah, not buying that... down you go Schopey.
