Well - one more little interjection here - mostly probably because I was raised a little different than most back in the 50s and 60s - I grew up with a mother that worked as a newspaper reporter and had very controversial views at the time (think crosses being burned on your front yard and you get the idea) - however, in addition to the segregation issues that she dealt with, she also was on the "front lines" of the "equal rights and liberation" forces for women. I guess in that upbringing I was basically pointed in the direction of thinking that all people were equal - no matter the gender, although there were, and still are, quite a large percentage of both men AND WOMEN, that have very specific thoughts on their roles in society.
I now live in a very small town where women and "other races" are still at the bottom of the totem pole and what makes it really hard to accept is that everyone plays their part the way it would have been in the 1860s - and they dont really explore that outside world where things have changed - so they are content with their :roles" - kinda makes it interesting to have discussions and see their responses compared to what I was raised with.
What this all boils down to is I believe that women (as well as men) will go for what their environment (in their minds) allows - some may be of the romance and "swept off their feet" mentality, while some are of the "get nasty with me right now - Im a woman that needs it and will tell you to your face - when its not between my legs" approach. It just shows the diversity (theres a PC term I love) of our world
God I ramble when I drink - hopefully this made a little sense
