@JustOneDad There isn’t a right men have that women don’t have in the United States and most Western countries. Women, however, have the right to vote without signing up for draft, they have the right to gender quotas in certain occupations, right to female-only scholarships despite women making up the majority of college students, right to not have their children taken away after divorce, etc. Also, the “dominant” gender make up most of workplace deaths, truck drivers, garbage collectors, soldiers, security guards, sewage workers, oil rig workers, miners, construction workers, homeless people, suicide deaths, but nobody cares about that. No, we need to prioritize worrying about women being underrepresented in STEM and the very, very few men who make up the majority of CEOs and politicians. Because the “dominant,” “privileged” gender can go collect garbage and enjoy being the vast majority of homeless people.
But that is just my opinion.
How did I do? Did I do a good job mimicking Konner? Ehh, probably not.
@bernie12 Well, men do live about 5 years less on average than women in the U.S.
I am not sure if he wrote it like that on purpose for shock value or if he was being honest about his views. I do wonder what would happen if a man wrote it with the gender reversed. Something tells me it won’t end well for him.
