To some degree we have to make distinctions. For example, drug companies should study the impact of drugs on women and men as our bodies react differently. However, as you pointed out it is important to see past the broad categories and labels to get to know the beauty of each person. Thanks for your comments! I hope you'll drop by again.<br/><br/>Karen @Sikantis, I think where we get into trouble is when we make initial judgments but never move past those to the unique qualities.

I wish that esteem is the basic of our society. I don’t like it when people are judged by gender or whatever without giving respect to the uniqueness of all of us.

They seem to be writing an entirely new set of rules. I wonder how their experiences will influence communication styles in the future. How has social media impacted the way your children communicate offline? Do you think their sophistication with virtual tools will change the way they will approach workplace communications when the time comes?<br/><br/>I'm so grateful for the comments and discussion from everyone. Life is busy and so I appreciate all of you taking time to pop in and contribute.
