I guess that separates me from the bulk of women these days who are trying to turn guys into bunch of quiche-eating, tree hugging, sandal wearing, friend hugging, hair-product wearing queer eye for the straight guy girl wannabes.
My wife isn't interested in that sort of guy either (or so she tells me. Hmmm....), but she still thinks Summers' comments do more harm than good by providing an excuse not to care about the situation.

Please understand, when she was a senior in high school her *guidance counselor* discouraged her from taking science and math classes (despite excellent grades) and tried to steer her toward Home Ec. She feels she has experienced much of the "girls aren't as smart" or "girls don't need science and math" discrimination.
