	"Don't take the world so seriously, little girl", the big
	man said.  "If you do, we'll only make fun of you and laugh
	at you.  We'll make pretend death threats on you, and say,
	'it was only a joke,' when you or your friends get upset."

	Hey, Gregg only proves himself to be a class-1 Jerk.  You
	think that bothers me?  I never claimed there was a 
	conspiracy -- only cultural biases shared by men & women
	which serve to keep women down, and which must be openly
	argued against if women are to make the transition from
	down to up.  If Gregg wants to make a fool of himself
	by posting taunts and threats, he can be my guest.
