@hersuit - at least I know that you are a man - I thought you a woman.
60% of women? I have no idea what Americans are thinking: looking at the output of Hollywood one would think America is a den of iniquity and decadence.
Women the world over, still have to learn to think for themselves - throughout the centuries of civilisation women had no birth right, no agency, no ability to decide for themselves, it even worked right down to the poor folk, where husbands often exercised control by alcoho-fuelled violence.
In the U.S.A. you have intense religious feelings ignited and presided over by 'wise men' over their flock - women simply are used to follow a leader like sheep.
I am one of a generation of women from Europe, who have always had to work, have always contributed, who were still put upon by their husband/masters until quite recently. Not my mother, but her mother, not me, either, I have worked all my life, contributed and was lucky to have had a wonderful, humorous and gentle husband.
I am glad you believe me - it is hard to be open on a forum such as this, which is all about controversy and at times is very aggressive.
I will hold my peace now.
