Well, I don't care about what others are saying about it.....to me, Socrates has to be a female, look at the name.
So-Crates....big crates.....she certainly had big boobs, so she needed CRATES to hold them....see ?
Socrates is a female, it's mathematic...don't BELIEVE shit about her, she was a girl and some men were so fucking jealous about how intelligent she was they decided to LIE and make us believes that she was male :P
Now you know the TRUTH, Socrates was FEMALE :D
You have been exposed to Scott and Tara long before me and I truly wish I had discovered them in 2012. You also have the advantage of being Quebecois since you don't take any of these "english" words for granted like I do.
Fun Fact: SOCRATES: Latin form of Greek Sokrates, means "whole power." Socrates was a man's name - in fact he would be equivalent to the "Steve" of the Western world.
According to historical documentation, Socrates was a man who worked as a stone mason, performed military service, got married, produced three sons, and was regarded as one of the great philosophers of early Rome. To the average person this information is largely anecdotal. That said, if there was a Socrates he was probably male in that an education for women (of any kind) was virtually non-existent. Further, no other learned man would suffer public discourse or debate with a mere woman -- much like the situation we find ourselves in today.
Alas I have only met 7 women in 50 years that were ACTUALLY equal. The rest only want you to PRETEND they're equal until shit goes wrong... then it's YOUR problem :P
