Male Privilege

[polly7]

312. I don't see it as a one way street either. Where did you come up with that one?

I do see it from every angle, and that doesn't include the concerns of women only. No, I feel sympathetic towards every person on the planet suffering from some sort of bigotry. You're preaching (and I say that literally) to the choir here .... speaking about any type of bigotry of course is not discounting the prejudice towards and the troubles of any other group. They're all connected. I've stated that inequality stems from those at the top with power, who harm men, women and children of all races. Maybe if you saw men as equals you'd realize there are many, many concerns they face that are identical to those we women do and that they, as a group, have much less in the terms of resources to cope with them. Of course this conversation would be much different were we talking about women from out of the U.S. and Canada, but as far as I know, you didn't specify we weren't. I do see republicans and conservatives up here trying to derail womens rights long fought for, but thankfully, in our case, they won't get far with it. Hopefully they won't there either. As far as porn - if consenting adult women enjoy it and wish to participate and profit from it - good for them. If they don't wish to, there are laws to protect them. Just as with men. Probably the only thing we agree on is the sexualization of young girls. That really frosts me, and it's the stupid mothers (mostly) who push for it. Instead of bemoaning the men so much, why no concentrate on movements that educate rather than demonize. It seems it might do more for these young girls than anything else.
