Hey! Nah, a lot of it is just cheerful bravado. Y'know, if I posted all whiney they'd say "look, she's emotionally sensitive." If I posted with extreme confidence, as I'm doing, they'd say "she has a chip on her shoulder." In fact, if I posted at all in a thread against the words of a Clintonista (oh the irony of all this!), there would certainly be some kind of reference to how I'm either being too sensitive or too male or too [insert the emotional reaction that a particular poster is most afraid of].

So thanks for your serious post which grapples with the data and adds to the debate. ;) If I disagree with y'all, there must be a lot psychologically wrong with me, y'think? Oh, but that's right, it's the left, not the right, that's using labels.

P.S. "Baby" won't work -- I don't mind being called that at all! Why, with each passing year, it sounds nicer!!
