          Actually... saw an article on the new about her. She started a telecommunications business with her husband and later sold it for a few hundred million. So, successful business woman. Kudos!

                                  If [God] knows what we are going to do then we have no free will and are just characters in a play written by him. Without free will, morality for humans makes no sense. Without free will and morality, any sort of punishment or reward system loses any justification. Heaven and hell would be places where [God] could watch the souls he created, predestined just for eternal happiness or agony. - Mark Thomas

                                    Yep, that was odd - your reply and my reply to your reply, both got 1d though they were opposite view points :-)

                                      Yeah, no more holding open doors, pushing chairs out, giving them the right of way etc. Just treat them like a guy.

                                      Bah. I open doors, push chairs out, give right of way etc. to my girlfriend all the time. It is the nice thing to do. The change though is that we now respect our women, think they are capable on their own and get soundly thrashed in many professional areas.

                                        Yep, that's a definite. We do respect women now. Though I still don't like opening doors for them :-)

                                          Opening doors for the fairer sex is a sign of respect.
