More likely it is a problem for old people all around the country. Look at the Television that molded our minds way back in the day. Look at Ricky and Lucy. Ricky earned the $ by being talented, debonair, and famous. What was Lucy - just arm candy - and an airhead at that. All doctors were male. Nurses were subordinates, like in "Mash" in the early 1950s. Cowboys carried guns. Cowgirls carried babies and cooked. Look at Hollywood movies - Marilyn Monroe was NOT famous for her acting like James Dean. "Thelma and Louise" was so unique in 1991 because the "heroes" were 2 women and still was a popular, money-making movie.
