<p>I am aware of many potential drawbacks in »cross-cultural« studies: their dubious reliability; in many cases, the relatively incomparable nature of much of the data used for cross-cultural comparisons, particularly those comparisons based on material from the Human Relations Area Files or other large-scale comparisons in which the original gathering of data was not under the control of the person using this data; the difficulty of rating cultures according to nonculturally defined variables; and the tenuous nature of causal explanations based on statistical correlation or comparison.

I am proposing that 'human nature' is such that it is &gt;unnatural&lt; for females to engage in defense, police, and by implication, high politics. For human females to do so requires explicit self-conscious provision of special facilities by a concerned, sensitive and willing community.«</p>
