ugh, way to miss the point. I do not want to fight about this in my own LJ, in my own space: this is not up for discussion, at all, in any way, I am not even going to.
in your last sentence, though: sorry, but this is why you should have kept taking english class, because you fail at reading comprehension. this post is not addressed to men or society, it is addressed to women, to the very many women of my personal acquaintance, who are content to sit and let injustice pass them by, who choose not to act, who kid themselves into thinking that everything is just fine. this post is not about men, it is not about the patriarchy, it is about women and what I see as a real problem with young women today. I am not saying sexism is women's problem, I am saying that women who don't think sexism still exists are part of the problem and they grieve me terribly.
