Haha, the middle school in Portland, ME is offering FREE contraception to students, and people are outraged by it. It's sex. Albeit kids are having it, but it's sex. Kids are gonna have sex if they want to, whether they have condemns/pills or not. Giving it to them for free is SMART. Despite the fact some would consider it PROMOTING sex, it's still smart. It's less underage kids having babies. And let's face it, it's a private matter. Your kid was gonna do whether you like it or not...
Then we have issues like this. Schools that segregate based on race. You might ask me why I'm more outraged at this than the topic I posted in the above paragraph, or why I'm not outraged at schools that are for girls only. Well, let me tell you, I AM outraged at girl-only schools. It's sexist. Just as much as sending black students to all black schools is racist. Honestly, I can't even express how dumb some people really seem to me because they claim they aren't sexist, but bring up sexism more often than anyone else, and often agree with things that are truly sexist.
It's much the same with "double standards." It's such an outrage. A black man can say a certain word; but heaven, hell, and all of the forces of nature forbid a man of different ethnicity say it. Then it's racist.
word up dawg
