Women relegated to support roles. We do too much helping men get ahead. Gotta stop being self sacrificing. This makes me say, ok, time to learn computers. I'm only 33, how bad can math hurt? I always try to encourage my younger cousins to get into computers. But, they're stupid. They like traditional roles based on 'christian' principals, and because they're idiots they think men like that. Stresses me out.
