There are 53-57 y.o women literature, anthropology and French professors at
major Ušs in the US (spread around the land) who have switched as a
supplement to their normalš paper-book read (plane/travel/coffee shop/rest
in the hamac...) ...that is my only genuine, authentic info...but I bet that
other Avians have other tales too...
...and these women have students...
Why women wouldnšt get into it...in 09šs western society anywhere...from
Finland to Singapore...from Montevideo to Kazan...
I would contend that they would get into it faster than men in fact...with
less inhibitions...
