Article 5: Part 1 of 7 ... What can men learn from women?

This is a course about preparing for the GED.  Yes, I might select some boring articles, but the idea is to give you something that might be useful after you finish the GED.

If you have a topic that you want to read about, please suggest the topic and I'll go hunt for an article... or you can send me an interesting article (interesting to you) and I will make some reading questions about the article.
