Exactly, Comodin.
Going back even further to the roots, I highly recommend "Sex, Time, and Power: How Female Sexuality Changed the Course of Evolution" by Leonard Shlain.

Pretty radical stuff, Valley Oak. Along with the social and political evolution would have to be the evolution of males. Off the top of my head, I can't imagine any man I know who would be willing to...

Well, there are wackos and then there are waccos. Take yer pick. :-)

I have greatly appreciated your integrity and clarity, Finell. Thanks for being a participant on this forum.

"A lot of work" is right, Zeno. It's part of the reason Waccobb is closing down.

PamelaL, do you have any further info on this US vaccine, like the name and/or the release date? Thanks.

Thanks for providing this information, Caromia.

Agreed, Star Man. It also occurs to me that another influence could be the stereotype of the bumbling father figure who often screws up or says the wrong thing, but is still loved by the family. This...

This is well done, but I couldn't sit through all of it. It's too close to being a reality here. Maybe after the election, depending on the outcome.
