Assuming there is a difference (and I think that there seems to be, at least at the level of feeling free to express that sympathy), the next question becomes why. Is it a sociological phenomenon, or is it physiological? I disagree. I think the next question is what difference does it make? I certainly would hope no one would propose that it is a just basis for discrimination regardless of its cause. No, of course not. Well, what difference does it make then? --Charlie Kaufman charlie@cca ...decvax!cca!charlie

To the contrary, I think the question is an important one. If the difference has a biological basis then I agree, it doesn't matter whether there is a diffence, and it certainly should not be used as a basis for discrimination. However, if it has a sociological origin then we can study and perhaps change it. -kee
