Well, Growlithing...I think we have moved well past "hunting and gathering" in the western world, so it's a bit disingenuous to refer back to those old divisive phantoms from human evolution. No one is really living that life anymore, even the last tribal humans are touched by technology. We are different creatures entirely from our distant ancestors that roamed the jungles in search of trees to rest in for the night and seeking wildfires because we did not know how to make our own. You can see yourself how you will, but since I identify as a feminist, I do not see myself in any way 'less' than any man. I deserve as full and good of a life as any man, and no one (male or female) deserves special benefits based on what they have in their underwear. Some men are weaker than other men (and women), yet, they are MEN. Should they be treated with the indignity that women are treated with in many places in the world based on their physical state? It sounds like so many still subscribe to the might makes right view of life, where just because this one has more muscles or more this, they get to lord over the other group. How lame, and how tiresome. I hope as a species we will continue to progress beyond this for all of our sakes.
