I can't help but think of a similar line like:
"I know teen boys and I know teen girls, and more of the boys are slackers, drinkers and pot smokers".......

did it occur to you that if they had special programs aimed at teaching boys there would be less slackers, drinkers and pot smokers?

I'm not down on conservatives or free thinkers. But, c'mon, think of REAL problems and solution, not always some ridiculous points such as a girl kicking your ass academically.

That's a misrepresentation of what's been said.

Think of all the giant stadiums fronted by taxpayers that have vastly more male players, owners and fans occupying them....at MY expense (I don't attend sporting events). Why not complain about that?

What makes you think we/I haven't complained about that. That would be a separate thread. Ultimately, those types of issues are usually voted on by the citizens in that particular county or city. Majority rules.

Personally, I applaud success where ever I see it, and don't begrudge someone who takes advantage of programs and policies which attempt to level the playing fields...even though none is perfectly "fair" or "just".

At what point do these "leveling policies" start holding down the other group? At what point does that become a problem for you?

As to Stem Cell, hey....feel free not to use the miracle cures that will be forthcoming.......by my bet is that you will.

one of the advances in stem cell research is that it is no longer necessary to harvest stem cells from baby brains. They can get it from adult bone marrow now too. You probably already knew that because you're probably a donor.
