Alice,

Interesting proposal - I suppose an individual woman may favor both, at
different times, depending on circumstance. But consider this: what is
the stress associated with having an idea that is contrary to your
mentor's, but not pursuing it, because you are restricted from being
tough and aggressive.

So from there the topic turned to an interesting question.  if you had
the
choice to make, between staying in a system in which you had to be tough
and agressive to succeed and success meant having to do it in the face
of
alot of opposition, and no positive feed-back, would you choose that
over
being in a system where you could have a comfortable life, but in which
you were not only not required to be tough and aggressive, but
restricted
from being that.  Nevertheless, you would enjoy one on one encounters
and
your life would be far less stressful
