You talked of yourself as "privileged" (though after 33 years in ABE maybe not rich). It seeems to me, and others may dispute this, that women form a caste (Ogbu term). Evidence? Women earn I think it is 77cents/dollar for what men earn--comparable jobs. It's not education--I think there are higher rates of female graduation from both high school and college. So I am tossing in "caste" as a possible descriptor of women's position. What do you think? Thanks. Andrea
