I guess the dopes don’t know that Man, spelled with a capital M, represents ALL mankind: men, women, boys, girls, even Bruce Jenner types.
You’re right. Believe it or not, I’m more of a Grammar Nazi type. I’ve got a heavy work load today causing me to be uncharacteristically sloppy with my posts. Still, being called a “dope” was unfair and undeserved. But thank you anyway for pointing out the difference between “man” and “Man”.
