Subject: RE: OliverStone: Somebody finally had balls to say it

My question is:

Aside from the whole Oliver Stone thing - why is that someone who is supposed to be speaking up and telling a Great Truth - is said to have "balls"?? What's it called when women speak up and tell Great Truths? They do y'know.

This whole "balls" terminology is sexist.
