This kind of reminds me of a little snippet from Marx...I forget WHERE it's from...but he said something about how, if you don't have that much time, one way to figure out the relative degree of civilization anywhere in the world, is to look at the relations obtaining between men and women.
The other thing that's notable is that the all the men that earned the asshole medals were from "settler" states... Is that worth pursuing?
I had a German boyfriend. He was one of the nicest (and most relaxed) boyfriends I ever had. (He was also a communist.)
