      From: oldernow@dev.null              I've a friend from high school days who regularly complains       about perpetually feeling compelled to openly pretend that       men and women are "equal" per modern liberal dogma. He       basically goes on and on about how much less - in his       own experience/reality - women are than men, and yet       wants to remain a member of the       let's-pretend-things-about-reality-and-then-go-on-       to-congratulate-ourselves-to-each-other-for-having-       elevated-pretence-to-the-level-of-reality party,       I imagine for some kind of personal benefit that       exceeds the cognitive dissonance misery he       claims to be regularly experiencing.              Unfortunately, he doesn't seem capable of understanding he's       railing - not to mention transgressing |
