13. Her anger was what is called "Moral outrage" because she was treated unfairly compared to a man

doing the exact same thing. She actually has a right to be extremely upset about this. Being upset by a missed call by an umpire in baseball in a sport where men are treated equally is just being upset over a missed call. I would argue she has a much, much, much stronger case to be angry, even be irate. If you were treated differently than someone else would you not feel moral outrage?
