How you can "disagree" with Bill's interpretation of my statements after
claiming NO personal understanding thereof seems inconsistent...
...until I see the Brice byline, at which point it falls consistently into

class in debate or something?
I, Tracy, was simply pointing out, once again, that the perfectly good book
of mythology is clearly designed to support a thoroughly patriarch(ic?)al
lifestyle. The passage cited is a perfectly good example: it ain't for the
wimmen folk, they're simply ignored; the editing committee was obviously
bereft of female input.
