Originally posted by Kaz: Exactly. JR, I could also add that from the experiences I've had in my class (21 boys 7 girls ) all BOYS are little brats who fight among themselves, wreck the classroom furniture for fun, practice chalk-throwing out the window (targets being the bikes outside), tease the girls and put down ANYONE who makes a mistake during lessons... but I won't. Do you see my point here?

Hold on. My own coach is a woman and she is doing a hell of a job but what i am saying is that when you put women in a competitive environement, they tend to put the other down just so that they themselves look better. And i still have to meet the first one that will not do this. Whereas the men let their actions speak for them. At least that's my experience.

I've got a question for you guys.

It seems to me that in American culture, we teach our women at an early age that they can use 'sex' to get what they want. That is one of the reasons, for 250's rant in the first place.

Is this the same in other cultures, and other countries?

Garnet looks pensively at Tiamat.

Will he be forgiven? Could there be a little bowing at female feet in sincere apology?

[tehmpus]

Surely someone is willing to field that question. I'll check back in 15 minutes.

I honestly don't know - I am sure a lot of these things are cultural, or at least learned behaviour, and depend on the social backdrop.
Perhaps some women feel that because of the ingrained discrimination that still exists (in Britain, women still earn on average three fifths of male earnings, most top jobs are held by men etc), that using 'sex' to manipulate individuals is a way round this. It isn't, and doesn't do anyone any favours in the long run.

Anyway, I can't answer from a personal perspective. I'm no supermodel, so it's not really an option.
