> I don't believe any mental or emotional distress was suffered I don't believe a grown up adult human being with an ounce of empathy could hold the beliefs that you hold. And yet, you exist and hold those beliefs. I presume you're an adult human and that you do have empathy for others. Sometimes things happen that challenge our beliefs. Maybe a better approach would be to ask why your beliefs don't seem to line up to reality, instead of ignoring the evidence in front of you. If you keep denying this social change, you're going to sound exactly like the old family member at Thanksgiving that says racist things. Society will have moved on and left you behind.
