    gender is a scapegoat, corrected

    Both men and women need to stop blaming gender for our inability to communicate in relationships. PMS alone doesn't make women trash their husbands' cars, just as testosterone doesn't make men sink into codependent, "drama king" depression. People fight because they have problems with each other, and to pin all these problems on the deficiencies of a single gender is to ensure that they will never be solved.

    Sorry for the earlier error; must be hormones.
