Of course it's women who are more engaged with this stuff. People have to want to be educated to engage in something. People have to be aware it's a problem. Also, you know, privilege? Kind of a factor, when all is said is done. It's usually those who are targeted, who can't get away from a problem or a reality who are the most engaged about it. Anyone else has a choice as to whether they want to get involved or not.

I've read that article before, as well. I think I may just do a post with the links (along with one I'll tag on here for you as well) and no other comment.

I think things like this change in waves, too. I think some young(ish) people *are* starting to take responsibility for the things their colleagues say (I'm one.) If we and others keep the pressure on, maybe we're on the brink of a real shift in discrimination in general.

I hope.

That's the only way it'll change, and you are quite right - some are starting to do just that. =)

It's just a really small number still, so here's to hoping for more and bigger waves, eh?
