> Sure, if you aren't in these groups you have the luxury of completely freaking ignoring it. Of course! This is such a strange point to make in my opinion, I assure you even though you are a bisexual you are ignoring all kinds of things that don't affect you directly as you are only human. :) It is a big complicated world filled with problems, everything can't possibly be equally urgent in equal proportions to every single person. If anything it is a good way to drive yourself into a depression and in-action, what good is impotent emoting really?

You're right that it's a big and complicated world, which happens to be crawling with humans. So, as long as we treat each other with respect and dignity, equally, none of the above would be a problem. To get there is not easy and instead of driving oneself into depression, one could also proactively attempt to improve their community for everyone. e.g. The author of the article, could have included a more inclusive perspective. It would have made for a better article - imagine the plot-twist: sometimes, as a foreigner, it may be easier to move into a country with a little bit more bureaucracy in exchange for a more stable and happier life.

  > one could also proactively attempt to improve their community for everyone. Sure. I'm just saying attempt effectively. And don't forget everyone is not everyone you like/agree with. > The author of the article, could have included a more inclusive preselective Eh? You want the article to better reflect that bisexsual dudes might want to think twice about moving to Saudi Arabia? One would assume that is common knowledge or at least the responsibility of the reader to further research. By the same token, some of the readers are conservative muslims. How does one simultaneously editorialize the article to be more inclusive/cater to them? I hope my point is clear. I don't believe a more inclusive preselective is logically possible in every situation, the broader the subject the less chance you have of pleasing every possible reader. Consider not spending your inclusivity tokens on every single thing you encounter simply because you'll run out. Spend wisely. :) P.S. - Please don't shoot the messenger.
