Just a little liteweight chat w/lord running clam. He gave a opinion. I gave him a polite observation and chance to expand. I thought.
Don't assume I have problems with women asserting their equality. I never asserted they were not equal. I don't care for Ayn Rand's Objectivism philosophy, though, which seemed to be a major pillar of 'classic' feminism, and the element I'm attacking, if I do.
"Understand that when one group has been oppressing another group for a long amount of time, it is hard to bring things to a balance. It is not an immediate thing that is remedied with the passage of one law. It requires in years of changing paradigms as well as laws. Often there is a backlash where people overcompensate to try and help the oppressed parties. It is not some form of persecution as you ridiculously assert. "
Sorry, I apologize, I was failing to understand. Conditions are different everywhere. I was only considering the instances in my local major city where affirmative action was being used to deny employing white guys in government and schools. Most people are not racists, anymore, and all races are somewhat for their own race or ethnic anyway. It can be seen in the local stores where I live. Whatever the manager is, the bulk, usually all of the employees are the same. Unless the managers white, then it's a diversified crew. After all these years I'd rather go forward, like Obama..
There is & has been a lot of comments on the internet about misandry like matieral in television & movies, and my wife mentioned it to me more than once. It's not noticible to you though, you say? I was just playing Detective, and inviting people to play with me asking questions. Like, if it is being done on purpose, why? One idea, just for starters- Hillary Clinton. Political operators are doing it to build/keep built up a simmering anger among men against percieved feminists, and even democrat men vote against her. What other reasons might motivate this, cui bono?
Sorry again for trampling on SATC. Have good night/day whatever.
I thought the video I linked was wryly humorous, given the subject.
