--- Quote ---the position of women in society are still true more than 40 years later.

I'm very surprised at this. I don't see how this can be true. Then I thought - 'maybe you need to ask which society? It's not like they're all the same!'

There is no way that the position of women in Canada is the same it was in 1972! No way in hell! It was different even in 1982!
Maybe some aspects are similar. But I'd really like some examples, and I'm sure you have references that would show the situation to be so dire?!? 

Thrudd:
On the name issue, if we are going to go with weird names then we must avoid anything stereotypically expected.
East Asian would be names like Brigitte, Gwenhwyvar or Margred.
Our heavy-set lady could be named Thomasina, Zerlina or maybe Yvonne or Ephemeris Jansky
Our red hot red head could be named Anastasiya, Флорентина, or maybe Pippilotta Delicatessa Windowshade Mackrelmint Ephraim's Dotter.
Heck, just mix it up between any of them to give everyone the equivalent of a straight shot Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster .... on ice.  :-D

My money, all two cents (1.25 u$), is on Tai watching all this on the closed circuit.  :wink:

Is it cold in here?:
Redhead's grounds for a complaint against Tai would be neglect of duty, failure to provide required training, and leaving them in the hands of someone who could trivially be portrayed as insulting ("this is a bookshelf").

Is it cold in here?:

Akima writes with precision. "So many of the things it said" we can take to mean the logical meaning: "a proper subset of statements made in that book about the position of women in society". The position of women in society can change radically and still leave many problems behind.

This could be a good thread in Discuss, in fact.

--- End quote ---

I wanted to say that but I wasn't sure if someone was going to be offended by that or not... It seems like it's cool so I will say it with you:

Ginger needs to chill the f- out.
