Men, so it seems, are more like trawlers dragging the water for whatever gets into the net. . [...]

Is there really "More to Love"?

It takes all kinds to make a world, so get in where you fit in!

OK, let me first say that I’m a woman of a certain weight.  It’s higher than I’d like it to be for the moment, but it never really slows me down in any way.  I plan on rock climbing on [...]
