You get to my age, having personally faced and dealt with these life-altering issues, raised kids (older than you are), lived abroad, learned and forgotten half a dozen languages, dealt with men's default sense of superiority IN DOZENS OF CULTURES, patience with wet-behind-the-ears young males begins to fray. Surely you have met older women down there in Ole Miss who simply speak their minds. ;-)

You write well and are obviously intelligent and educated.
If you are interested in your OWN GROWTH rather than parroting your default programming, you would do well to read Maimonides. "Teach your tongue to say, I DO NOT KNOW, and you will progress."

WOMEN CONTROL REPRODUCTION. When men attempt to control women's reproduction DEATH AND CARNAGE ARE THE RESULT.

I read some time back of a South American Indian tribe that believed it took 3 men to impregnate a woman. SHE got to choose. Every pregnancy was celebrated by "high-fives" amongst the men. The children were born into a culture where the "sensitive types" attended to infants, the "playful types" ran around with the toddlers, the "prof types" taught the ways of the tribe, the "spiritual types" passed on their knowledge and the "warrior types" taught the protection of their culture. DAMN that modern technology!
