The real people who actually help Humanity are generally the ones who do what you said - take the clothes on their back and blaze a trail. Sometimes metaphorically. Change is vilified, progress is hated. That is the definition of O great Society. At least in today's World imo. Defintly in the past - Einstein, Newton, Darwin - were those people appreciated in their time? Nope. Are they even appreciated now? Not really. Their ideas are used as ammo for moot agendas.

Anything of substance is traded out for a pseudo-token. (C) Image over substance, Humanity 2011.

Most people are simply followers, they want other people to do their thinking for them and even guide their actions.

Maybe we're making up for the perceived lack of maturity in men?

possibly but it doesn't hurt to lighten up a bit sometimes and be immature. Life isn't that serious that everything has to be bogged down with "maturity" at every turn.

i balance it out nice by being the most immature woman ever.
