It is easy to see here, why men have such a hard time trying to understand women ! I defend her, even call her an invaluable gift to the world and she starts bitching about some, uh, minor detail !

HEEHEE...minor details are a woman's specialty, Ramon, my dear! And here , thanks for the defense and lovely compliment....I'm still a Yank, though...so I dunno if you want to be associated with me. Seems this is a Yank bashing thread

So obviously that correlation is not as normal as it might appear to us.

Very true. I feel that my primary affinity is to Scotland. I am a Scot. Unfortunately, being a Scot is a cultural / national trait, which at present is not really reflected in the political makeup of the U.K.

However,this feeling of national identity does not in any way give me an innate superiority to any other race, creed or colour. Neither does it entitle me to whinge on endlessly about how I am an oppressed culture.

It does however make me very happy
