Hi Sam, and everyone else,
The myth of the inverse relationship between skin pigment and sensitivity is a 
hard one to eradicate.  Maybe it's because many are quick to dismiss a 
woman's early warnings of soreness unless they can see redness of her skin?  
In a pale-skinned person, inflammation is visible long before it is in people of 
richer hue.  But *every* woman whose baby has a bad latch that causes pain, 
will get sore, and just as quickly and disastrously, as the ones in which we can 
see it from the start.
This could be an opening for a discussion about how we listen to women.  
Unless we can see 'proof' that what they are telling us is 'true', we don't take 
it in. When the proof is harder to catch sight of initially, we may think that the 
problem isn't there as early as it is.  
Take home message: LISTEN TO WOMEN.
Cheers, and have a good week, I know I plan to!
