WOW!! I am impressed! An intelligent discussion without flamers (so far). I was going to make a couple comments, but they have already been made, by Joe Offer and kat. I was going to say k.d. lang, but Guest nonPC49 beat me to that, too.

It seems somehow, to be "safer" for women to have women partners than for men. Perhaps this has something to do with (pardon me for saying it) the phobia about anal sex......gay men do, gay women probably don't. Don't know for sure.

Also, it seems to me that in GENERAL, women are emotionally tougher than men all over the map. You all know the saying,

"If men could have the second and fourth baby, there might be a second, but never a fourth...." It surely has something to do with the "female" mind set.

Most "serial killers" are men; granted, some are female, but not a large percentage. Most "parental killing of children" in the Homo sapeins species is by females (mothers), not males.......don't know just where I am going here, rambling.......somebody help me out here.....
