Nope. 144 characters is all it takes to qualify as a tirade these days.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

See, **** like that prevents us from having a real discussion about this. The fact that women have some privileges does not negate the privileges that men have, nor does it mean there are not areas where men have fewer rights than women.

It's when information is delivered with that kind of attitude that our ability to progress deteriorates. How can we have a discussion about equal rights when both sides are only interested in themselves?

Each side of every argument in history is only interested in themselves. That's why they cared enough to raise a fuss in the first place.

Emotionally charged political issues are impossible to compromise on because all discussion does is polarize views further.

The issue is a lack of evidence behind statements. It all comes down to my facts/feelings comment. Like when people bring up the wage gap without researching it beforehand. Men do it too though, don't get me wrong. That's just the most popular example.

It's a bit ****ed. But at any rate, I try to be open while seeing the BS in some stuff until I see something that might change my perspective, and then adapt to that. I'm certainly not saying that women don't have it hard, but in some situations men do as well and I didn't really come to understand that until today.

Life expectancy, tho. Not sure who to blame for that discrepancy.
