My husband and I were discussing this and we could not come up with a single woman to include on a "top 100" list. I think this is partly because of the discrimination women faced throughought American History, but I don't know if this is the whole answer.

We considered people like Gloria Steinheim and Susan B. Anthony, but they didn't make the cut. We also looked at women such as Abigail Adams and Martha Washington, but their contributions were in support roles.

The top 100 list would probably feature people in Politics (heavy emphasis on Presidents), business, science, and inventions. "Lifestyle" personalities such as actors and athletes probably wouldn't make the list unless they crossed real barriers.

This is something we've been tossing around for a few days and I thought I'd open it up to the Yahoo! Answers community.

I hereby pledge to ignore questions with more than 3 typos and all messages from forum trolls that want their penis size evaluated, and I urge everyone to do the same!

I am a proud capitalist. Considering that capitalism inherently distributes wealth disproportionately among the citizens of a particular society, does a capital gains tax that is much lower than the income tax further contribute to disproportionality of wealth accumulation? I believe in a flat taxation of income. Why shouldn't capital gains be taxed at the same rate as an individual's income? After all, income is income....right? Can anyone make the argument that a capital gains tax that is the same as the income tax would discourage investment? Investors will still try to maximize their investment's earnings despite the rate of taxation. Also, equalizing the capital gains tax with the income tax would increase revenues from the wealthiest and thereby decrease the tax burden of those not of the "investor class". Do you agree? If not, why?

As far as I can tell, aggression is society's greatest risk to itself. Do you think non-aggression can be learned, or even gentically engineered.

What is more masculine than providing for the woman carrying your seed? Seeing your child grow in the woman you love. Nourishing the woman as she nourishes the child. Giving your body to the needs of the woman as she has given her body to the needs of the child.

What is more honourable than raising your own seed? A product of the love between a man and his woman. A child that admires you and seeks your faternal love and direction.

What is a greater demonstration of will and strength than providing for your family, year in and year out? Working despite fatigue and discouragement. Nowing that the sweat of your hands and the pains in your muscle have put shelter over your family, and food in their stomachs.

What gives greater pride to a man than faithfulness to his wife? Knowing she is your garden and sacred hideaway. Knowing you are the only man worthy in her eyes to enter into her gates of paradise.

Why do so many men resent and not enjoy their masculine duties?
