Re: Some agreement, some disagreement

I have to disagree on the "male" thing because I have known women who are very much like this and I know many men who are not.

As one of those women, I'm bound by the membership agreement in the Fellowship of Quarrelsome, Quibbling and Flamacious Assholes to point out to you that just because there's some women like me and some men like you, doesn't mean that the behavior isn't significantly correlated with being male. This has been substantiated by everything from widespread casual observation to formal research. It is not necessary for something to be a property of all men for it to be a "male" thing.
