    And if we’re gonna sit here and moralize what is “potentially” harmful, we can probably land on 90 things that affect a significantly wider portion of the population that we want to preemptively halt from making bad decisions. But instead this is what we are focusing a disproportionate amount of time, focus and energy on (which is really just misplaced anger). Because it’s easier to try to force conformity at best, wipe out at worst (advocates would be happy with either) less than 1% of Americans than it is to fix a problem that affects a more statistically significant population. 
    (Psssst. It’s wipe out)

    Maybe you can explain it to the girls. They seem to think they have a problem...

    Remember, this isn’t about protecting women. 


    Also, I’m sure there are like 100 other things women would love to have dealt with in society before this “issue” is addressed.

    It's a pretty simple issue to solve that has a scientific way to show why it's an issue.  If we weren't so dumb and have to fight about every goddamn thing, we could fix this "issue" and move on pretty damn fast.
