I get very few opportunities to find the mother's voice inside of 
me.  You may not understand what I am about to suggest, but so be 
it.  Do you think women, who has developed and carried in their womb 
for nine months, nursed, nurtured and taught a child, or many 
children, might assign quality different from a man? Because I tell 
you that when I see a mother, even on the television, with a dead and 
blood smeared child in her arms, or holding an emaciated starving 
baby, I experience great pain.  I suggest to you that women DO assign 
quality in a different way than men.

[Krimel]
I was tempted to just dismiss this as whiney crap. But on reflection is
seemed more like stupid whiney craps so I decided to address it. Do women
see things differently than men? 
Duh? 
Yes!

Do children see things differently than adults? 
Do Americans see things differently than the French? 
Does they guy over there see things differently that that other guy over
there? 

These are stupid questions. 
Of course people see things differently.
Everybody assigns Quality differently than everybody else.

Marsha
The type of failure I sighted above is much bigger, and makes puny 
the success of the computer or going to the moon.  And that 
understanding makes women a superior judge of quality.    

[Krimel]
I would think that as a mother you would be grateful for the technology that
helped make sure you and your infant didn't died in childbirth. I do tend to
see that as an improvement more significant than the computer. But I am a
glass half full kind of guy.


imho
