Are you really this daft? Do you think unionised male physiotherapists have a different wage scale than female physiotherapists? Do you think female physicians have a different fee schedule than male physicians?

As I read these opposing views its becoming increasingly apparent that I live in a different world than some of you. In my world my grandmother is the wealthiest person I know. In my world my mother was the breadwinner who supported her family. In my world I work with educated independent confident female professionals on a daily basis.

In your world women are victims who are oppressed by men everyday. In your world we should feel sorry for women because they don't have the same opportunities as men and are second class citizens.

If I have a daughter I sincerely hope she has the attitude that she can accomplish anything with education and hard work, not the attitude that she is an opressed victim
