DU is a very small part of my life and my activism. You are talking about GD I think.

I'm a very active member of HOF. I know what I post. I'm aware of what I personally care about and actively work for. I rarely come out because its essentially useless. If I choose to spend the time, for instance, I could talk you down and we could come to some sort of reasonable accommodation regarding opinions and how they are expressed. I'm sure we agree on any number of things.

(BTW, in your response statement to me here there are a number of misconceptions and untruths)

I do this once in a while, it's not difficult. What I find most problematic is when actual privilege is some how being challenged, one of the roots of all misogynist legislation--there's a very common 'it's isn't me' reaction.

Then out come the plethora of threads--most of which I don't participate in--wiith the snark offs, derailing of the topic, same group of people over and over and no actual discussion.

This thread for instance is apparently seen as having a hidden agenda. Although looking at the responses, most people are staying on topic.

I glad 'you men' care about the same things, although I will say the men in my life already do. What is it, then exactly, do I need to get over?
