> Psychologists show how precarious masculinity is, and how men will resort to violence to defend it.
Very interesting indeed.
Most interesting of all I think is this statement:
> Interestingly, people tend to feel manhood is defined by achievements, not biology. Womanhood, on the other hand, is seen primarily as a biological state
Hence we see men judged on their emotions and behaviour; women on their bodies.
Yeah, it's interesting that women can't change how womanly they're seen as - it's fixed by their body, whereas perceptions of men can be much more variable.
Except they can and do -- there are whole industries based on getting women to change their bodies, starting at clothing and grooming and ending with plastic surgery.
Given Dropbox and the clunkiness of having to manage your files through Google Docs, I must confess I think the GDrive is a bit 'too little, too late'. I've got 13.5GB of free storage on Dropbox and it integrates with all OSes and iOS/Android/Symbian, and all my friends use it so I can share folders and information really easily. But, I hope Google surprise me with something I just can't resist, because that'd be awesome.
Yeah, Dropbox is just awesome, and I really can't see this replacing that. I can't actually think what Dropbox is missing, to be honest.
I think GDrive might be useful for people writing apps that need some centralised storage somewhere (that don't want to handle it themselves), but other than that it does seem a little redundant.
If you want to know what other people think needs to be added to Dropbox you can always check out their feature request subsite. :) You get six votes a month and I used five of mine on this feature.

hahaha. HAHAHA. Enjoy your shows being pirated by people of whom a proportion would have actually watched it in an approved way, then.
