- sharikous 4y agoEven if you accept his caution about merit it is still morally wrong to make sweeping decisions on basis of sex if you hold to democracy, humanism, individualism... Actually an honest take of taking privilege into account will find that the most important factors are wealth and education, certainly not sex.
- epgui 4y agoI'm not denying that wealth and education are major hallmarks of privilege, but you can't be honest and say that sex is not an important factor in privilege. That's a whataboutism.
