If I die on the front line of a war, is it less tragic than if the dental hygenist next door gets blown up? My life has less value?

If women want the same opportunities as men - to be high earning pro athletes like Marion Jones, to be world leaders like Maggie Thatcher or possibily Hillary Clinton, to run Fortune 500 companies like Martha Stewart - they can enjoy those opportunities, but if they fall afoul of the law, they must pay the penalty just as the other 50% of humanity would.

as he said. child or no child. u do the crime. u do the time
