    The patriarchy was so terrible men even thought they were more worthy of freezing to death than women.

      73% of all women from every class survived the sinking of the Titanic.

      Only 19% of men survived.

      Speaking of paleolithic emotions and medieval institutions. It's no wonder why young men might be looking around and wondering about these sorts of attitudes.

            Marin County I get. But the Tetons and parts of western Colorado? An artifact due to low population density I suppose.
