   Close. Also very pro-class 19th century
   thinking/prejudices. Oh all those naughty
   women with undignified thoughts that drive
   them insane !!!  :-)

   This is why I'd like to see the actual, testable,
   SCIENCE stuff now under the umbrella of "psychology"
   to ESCAPE. Sometimes seems the 'science' bits are
   used to justify/'prove' the OTHER ridiculous bits.

   Oh well, massive doses of 12 "anti-depressants"
   solve all problems, right ? Have you SEEN US
   TV ads lately ? Wow.

   Gotta wonder ... are so many women "depressed" for
   biochem reasons - or because the "happily ever after"
   shit they were promised turned out to be a crushing LIE ?
   Maybe they should become cops or military - something
   more engaging ???
