So, several women here post long deeply insightful views on Mr. Silver being here and the only posts he bothers to acknowledge are the ones where he received positive feedback.

The more I think about it, the more I feel as though this is SO typical of our daily interactions with men. For some reason, in a huge room full of women, one man walks in and makes himself at home and the tone starts to change, we feel the need to make him comfortable and welcome...moreso than when a new woman shows up. Why does this happen in this society? Why is it happening here (and it definitely is, he is a focus of attention as commented on by many participants)? Some find it merely odd or unusual that he is so comfy here and others are somewhat concerned about what he could represent to TE.
