- rayiner 3y agoI understand, and it still isn’t. I’m just focusing on a narrow point: my mom perceived herself as equal because she received the same education British kids. Separate but equal doesn’t work. Kids must learn to view themselves as similarly situated, or else they will not be. In my view, this is a big problem with the Muslim world. We have this tremendous victimhood complex. Contrast the East Asian countries, who have just sucked it up and focused on getting rich.
