A challenge

Have you ever tried to see-saw with a much bigger person on the other end? The larger person has to work hard to balance the differential. Guys, many of us are like that bigger person, and almost all...

To The Thread and Beyond

Re: New Jane Anderson Website

Before I can press forward with new writing, I need to address a post on the thread from a few days ago. After reading it, I realized that I should reply in some detail because it is so deceptive....

Setting the Stage for Male Gender Bias

Before presenting one lemon that was likely caused by male gender bias, I will try to focus us because of all of the distractions. This may help posters and readers to be on the same page, at least...
