Subj: Are there any women out there?
Answer: Yes
And now I'm going to get rabid.
To all you men telling us that we shouldn't mind being called girls:
Shut up.
If we don't like it, we don't like it. For some enlightenment, try getting
a copy of the report on attitudes towards women in the EE&CS department at
MIT. If you write to me, I might be able to hunt down some extras. Some
of the attitudes are certainly more bizarre than most of you will exhibit,
but it is food for thought.
Re: Women are those who are mature enough not to mind being called girls.
I can think up an analogy for two terms for blacks, but on second thought
it might excite even a worse reaction in others.
Frothing,
