We've noticed that the princess is encouraged to use traditional components of "feminine" rhetoric to persuade her husband: gentleness, respect, and submission.

The concept is very classy, but the lack of ability to actually act would be tough to live with.<BR/><BR/>Also, I've used the "low-tech blogging" method in classes before, but it definitely doesn't work as well with high school. Perhaps it's too much of a mix of those who don't care to be involved and those who care a little too much.Bewlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08420887705159797660noreply@blogger.com
