One is right for boys, the other for girls.

Oh. But I thought the OP was a classical liberal, not a traditionalist.
Oh well.

âŚaccording to your traditional world view.
Why do you think some things are right for boys, and others for girls? Do you not value individualism? Do you not allow that not all boys are the same, nor are all girls?

I reject your labels and adjectives. You are no friend.

Because boys and girls are different.

There are a number of problems with the medical industry and why it costs so dammed much. One of the problems is that doctors are viewed (to some degree or another) as these uniquely special almost god-like beings whose services and costs are largely shielded from free-market forces. Thereâs also the time and costs of educating people to be a doctor.

In a way that makes âbeing a knightâ inaccessible for some?
What characteristics of being a knight precludes a girl from being one?

No doubt. Am I discussing âtoughâ?

I donât care if they charge $1M per consultation. That doctor isnât a friend.
My friend is the one who will negotiate his fee.

It takes more internal toughness to be a lady than a knight. Or at least an equal amount.

âŚand I wouldnât argue that for a second. My mother proved that to meâŚand it hurt.

I wonder what should happen if the father dies.
I completely agree with you. For example I donât need insurance to see a doctor if I have a cold. I should be able to contact three or four doctors officeâs and ask âhow much for such and such servicesâ and then decide who I want to go to. As it is now the medical industry is shielded from those types of free market forces.
