But the difference in media and consequences matter. When the consequences involve a stampede of people, you best believe it's a different situation than if the consequences amounted to revving up insecure guys.
> Wearing clothes is a social act, not a personal one.
It's both. Until society tells you how you have to dress all the time, then there's a social component and a personal one.
- toyg 11y agoSure, differences matter, but the point is that there will be consequences. It is perfectly reasonable to assume that they should never be violent or threatening, but it is unreasonable to expect that there will not be any. That's just selfish entitlement: "the world should work this way because it pleases me so, regardless of facts".
