Oh, honestly, Laura!  No one said anything about anyone being too delicate
or being hurt.  Someone pointed out the simple fact that brutality is no
joke for (most) women, it's an unpleasant reality.

You sound like a woman saying "Hey, look at me, I'm one of the guys."  At
least you must be a woman who has never been brutalized.  If that is so, I
am glad for you, but do try to be sensitive to others who HAVE suffered.

Thanks,
Nancy Parsons
