As long as men and women are not biologically identical, there won't be equality.

smellibear wrote:nah what I assume is that as minorities they have certain experiences that privileged majorities don't really share and that social justice is an attempt to address those. also I know social justice is a western concept that historically has not allowed much if any room for non-academics, non-whites, non-westerners etc and their experiences. doesn't mean it doesn't exist right?

Also what is your criteria for douchebaggery, cuz sometimes you've been pretty douchey and it definitely hasn't meant that you were wrong

smellibear wrote:what do you call activists then like let's say the people who are protesting in Ferguson
