My thought is virtue signalling. I tend to agree with you on the fact that anyone can be who they want but trying to force the other shoe so to speak on the kids creates a problem for me. As much as equality is warranted this idea of men and women not being different is laughable to me.
I am coming from the perspective of a post secondary educator training in a hyper masculine career path. I think its very important that we include women in our industry but the fact of the matter is that not all women are cut out for it.
I ask you is it fair that i should be compensated the same as the women who can only do half of the field work I can? of course thats not all women and not to single out women because there is certainly men who are not cut out for this type of career as well.
Essentially what i see here is a Cultural Marxism at its finest saying that words and language specifically are responsible for ones oppression. Change the ways the words and language are used and boom we have equality.
I disagree.
Only when we learn to accept the fact that people are different and we learn to accept and appreciate the differences strengths and weakness of others and the fact that those differences in people can help us through our own short comings.
This idea of one cookie cutter for equality bothers me and i think only when we can admit we are different can we truly obtain those goals set out by misguided SJW's otherwise you are falling prey to conditioning set out by over reaching governments trying desperately to consolidate more power and pull more money out of your pocket and the media narratives these governments and corporate counter parts are using to push an agenda.
I love everyone and I love women because everyone else (women included) brings something to the table I dont.
I hear what you are saying and agree that not all woman (and men) are 'cut out' for certain career paths. What im trying to highlight to children is that they can give anything a go no matter their gender - their gender shouldnt define who they want to be.
I agree that women do bring something different to the table but as I said in New Zealand the rate of females is 98%. This means that alot of these children grow up with only female role models and dont get a males perspective
