> I'm not saying there are no differences (although there are virtually no professions that need be gender specific - men and women can be equally proficient at almost everything), but that we should foster an environment where we minimize those differences because the outcomes of not doing that quite literally destroys lives.
I have absolutely 0 interest in minimizing difference. Some people are straight, some are gay. Straights should act a little gay, or gays should try to be straight to minimize differences?
Minimizing differences is not the objective, embracing differences is.
- emmapersky 14y agoSadly I think you have completely missed the point here. The notion that there is a way to act gay or straight is exactly what is being debated.
- irahul 14y ago> Sadly I think you have completely missed the point here What point did I miss? From the very beginning of this thread, you are advocating minimizing differences? And I am saying minimizing differences is bad. There are differences - gender differences, sexual preference difference, personality difference...Minimizing differences is not only misguided, it's wrong.
