Affirmative Action

Very carefully?!?

I don’t. makes for much cleaner bookkeeping.

AA promotes inequality and will only create tension between the sexes when none is necessary! It is an insult to women (and minorities) - to imply that they are somehow inferior and need extra help! I thought the whole purpose of the feminist movement was to free women and make them independent! AA only reinforces the image women have long been trying to ditch: that they are more dependent on men then men are on men or they are on other women - that is, that they are equal to men! Not that they got persecuted and now NEED men to compensate for the poor little helpless babies, and give them extra candy!

AA is stupid, sexist, and racist!!

Aye! It is not only sexist to women and racist to minorities (by patronizing them) but it is also sexist against men and racist against whites. In short, it is degrading to everybody!
