Subject: Re: Masculinity



waa waa, i've been on the list awhile now, and why now is all this whining
begining?  Stupid Cultural Studies types/morons?  Finnish?  Excuse me, but
it's one thing to have an opinion as we all do and express it in this type of
forum, and quite another to put down a group of people, i'm sure none (or
few) of whom you know outside of this forum...  Regardless of the
intellectual level of any list member, they have one thing that cannot be
compared,... and that's manners.  Rarely do I post to this list, more often
do I forward posts to peers and professors,... I guess this is one thread
that won't be forwarded...They are, as I am, above your blanket stereotypes
and general whinings.
