That said, I hope your brilliant T talks to you about attribution: http://blogs.psychcentral.com/managi...e-experiences/
As Rene Descartes said, "If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things."

huh?
ummmm I don't see what's wrong with generalizing.... like
generally a toddler girl will pick a doll to play with over a truck... what is wrong with saying that?
(it's been proven time and time again,, and studies have shown that a higher percentage of females are MORE verbal than males-- it's not better or wrong to be either way-- it just is the way it is) I think it helps some people that may be confused about genders and understanding their own humaness... and such things.
I also don't understand where anyone on this thread has been "speaking for others"??
(maybe I misunderstood some things?)
It's good you aren't defined by others Byz
I like to think that of myself as well.
For some, trying to understand how cultures work and the roles in which things play as to what's functional and/or dysfunctional-- it can help some find the way they wish to go. not everyone will want to go the same direction for sure-- but some find much inner peace within the direction of the masses.
best to all
