I real;ize you are trying to stress woman's role in procreation but I
think that no matter how important that role is it still takes a woman
and a man to create another human life.  I know with all certainty whom
my children (actually child) are and though my world-view may be biased
it is not by this fact.  I offer that your world-view is perhaps biased
by your perception of sex roles in procreation.

Kim, aside from this minor point I thought your article was excelent.
