Lines: 15 I just read the article from the man who was "symathetic to the feminists cause" in which he was responding to the woman who stated that men were responsible for necessitating affirmative action programs and I thought he was doing fine until he started talking civilly to her. I am sick and tired of anyone (male,female,black,white,purple, or any other class) making generalizations and blaming another group for societies' problems. There is no group of people who is any better than another group. Any group of people, placed in another group's position from birth, would react the same way as the other group. Society dictates how we act and if you don't think something is right, don't blame one particular group, blame society. We're all in this together and until we realize that, our outlook is going to continue to be warped and Shelley Heretick is going to continue to blindly place blame where it doesn't belong. sssssssssssssssss! There, I feel better now that I let that steam out.
