- Naaahh...just different forms..I know a good number of both and each seems
- to be about as equally angst filled. And please folks, before the rebuttals
- start, think ANGST. *NOT* "MY life sucks more than your because I'm $GENDER."
- Angst can be PART of that problem, but it shouldn't be used to describe the
- whole problem.

- Heheheh...you obviously haven't been keeping up w/ the latest political trends.
- The PC clique is in power now, and if you're a YoungStraightWhiteEvilPatriarch
- OppressorPig(read SWM), boy are you in for it. And even if you aren't, if you're
- wearing those XY chromosomes you've gotta be in league with them somehow.
- But then again, thats how it appears close to the source. It takes time for it
- to filter out to the rest of the country.

- >>should i become a man? now, there's angst. at least the job discrimination
- >>would decrease significantly...

- Jeeze...and I was just thinking the opposite.
