Jawge, there are two interpretations of the words that you highlight; the way you have and the "certain societies" one.
If I am referring to let's say a group of fifty students from say Jamaica College among which are three extremely bright individuals... I could in reference to them say: " the extremely bright students of Jamaica College display etc etc" without meaning the entire group.
Okay let's give the benefit of the doubt:
certain societies, fine. Why isn't there any mention of Europe or Asia. Peter you know better; don't defend the stereotype. Come anway
I hear what you say... so Historian could have just left out a reference to a geographic area to make his point, which is what we should also focus on; how women are treated (and getting women back on the site). The female perspective enriches our exchanges.
