How utterly reactionary.
Moreover, do you realize just how despicably transphobic or queerphobic this statement is? The irony in your comment is appalling. Your comment is a perfect example of precisely why we do need to support people who don't conform to heteronormative stereotypes.
- DefaultUserHN 10y agoThis blatant encouragement that being a normal white male is not diversive enough is both anti-male and white-phobic. It conforms to that old age stereotype that white males are somehow superior to genders of other race. Supporting such blatant discrimination against white males does nothing to encourage diversity. These kind of diversity out-reach programs operates under the assumption that diversity can only by achieve through discrimination against white males, which that is not true. Diversity can be achieved without discriminating against white males.
