Malcolm,

There really is some excellent cross tabulations at play here...

It is no surprise to me that Liberal Feminism tends to benefit a certain social class... I interviewed quite a lot of women face to face about this.. i asked them about how important it was breaking through the glass ceiling...

there answer for the most part was that they could not give a feck but that it was more important to put a roof over women's heads...

roofs are more important than ceilings I come to understand

Malcolm,

I had a brainwave last night... your gender material would make for excellent distribution on International WOmen's Day... it is a day when the main parties like to pat themselves on the back to celebrate how gender equal they have become...
