Oh thank you so very much! I couldn't agree with you more! In fact, in my psychology courses I use this example for why it is important to know the subjects of the study & not assume. Women's heart attack symptoms are not the same. Then there is also culture and age etc to consider! Makes you wonder about the intelligence of the men who ran their studies and assumed it was the same for women. They complain they do not understand us & then when it comes to research we must be the same? UGH! And they wonder about us? Sigh...oh I love men but sometimes...and they say the same about us, but on important issue like this they better get their act together! It is almost 2010! I had one past student even email me her prof discussed how it is all great & fine to now rerun studies say on Love including women and other cultures but if you still use the definition of Love that men created in the past are we really changing anything? Women may define Love differently in the first place. AWESOME! We need to inspire the young women of today to become passionate about research with a new view rather than just continue with the old male view of the past. BRAVO for helping in one area of research!
