you will find them on here. They are the ones that are NOT in those types of threads. They are busy elsewhere building and creating positive.

Ignoring the ones that are destroying, tearing down and being negative.

They do not voice their displeasure at their "younger" brethren. This is where a lot of the interaction on DU gets lopsided.

Men (generally speaking and remember how I define men)are more of a: Do as I do and there would be no need to talk about it. Learn from the example I (the man) sets forth.

Women (generally speaking) want/need both. Action and Discussion.
