102. Yeah...

How'd you learn of such things?

I went to a TERRIBLE (in every way) high school but had one teacher who encouraged my interests in feminism and cultural mores (total misfit at the school, the only teacher with advanced education, must have screwed something up along the way to end up there, we figured!), and he sent me to the library to study Margaret Mead's work.

Wow!

It opened my mind to all SORTS of differences by culture. What a revelation that is! (Why don't schools require students to challenge cultural mores that way?!)

Great points -- thank you!
