"Therefore, if I was a woman, I'd organize a demonstration
to call attention to what was going on there"
"The attitude that this engenders in men, I feel, is carried
over into the workplace, and since we men are in the position
to impose our attitudes, will necessarily degrade women."
Sexism is not "just" a women's issue. It degrades us all.
If you see something you think is evil, dangerous, or even just
offensive, it behooves you to try to think of something y*o*u can do
about it. Demonstrations may not be the answer. Avoiding the products
of offensive promoters is a start. Perhaps as a man in a position to
impose your attitudes, you can do better. Don't expect the downtrodden
to solve the problems of the world; they have their own.
