I'm not sure what part of this political debate you see as being on a "sniffing, scratching level," but it is in no way intended to exclude females. As a matter of fact, the main person I've been bouncing these ideas off of is a woman, and 9 out of my 10 closest friends are female. Not that this makes me a better person, but I'm just not clear as to how my loosely political rants have become embodiments of testosterone and evidence that I don't connect with women. Also, I recognize that David's political messages are more profoundly emotive than my rants here, but if I could rattle off arguments as elegant and beautiful as David's song lyrics, I'd drop everything and go become a columnist or better yet a poet.

I hope this post doesn't sound argumentative, I just felt a bit hurt at the implication that my political debates were insensitive and chauvinistic. I hope this clears up my intentions.
