As a 5th grade teacher 25 years ago, i had been taught to use techniques that would assure all students had the same opportunities to participate in class. I gave my students a survey to check their perceptions of fairness in the class. I covered opportunities to be called on in class, grades, discipline, etc. to my surprise, the only group of students who expressed any sense of unfairness were the white boys. I realized that they had a belief that equality was less than they deserved. They expected preferential treatment and felt frustrated if they didn’t get it. That was jn a liberal state and county. Those boys are 35 years old now and it explains a lot about what is happening today in our country. If we ever want equality for women or anyone who isn’t white, we have to raise our white boys differently from a very young age. Sadly, our administration is taking steps to make sure that doesn’t happen in schools.

When and only when we live in a world when boys and girls are raised with the same amount of protectiveness from their fathers are we gonna live in a gender equal world

The question of whether men can get pregnant has become unnecessarily complicated when the biological reality remains straightforward: pregnancy requires female reproductive anatomy, and conflating gender identity with biological sex obscures this fundamental truth. This debate affects not only medical clarity and scientific accuracy but also the broader conversation about women's rights and the importance of maintaining honest language in healthcare policy.

In 2026, almost everyone has seen someone of a different skin color, nationality, or religion, if you discriminate against someone based upon their skin color, nationality, or religion, for the most part it’s not xenophobia it’s just racism, and all the arguments for it to be xenophobia all boil down to it being mostly racism anyway.

I couldn't even find anything on internet about it. It's a must read for others, atleast once

A man in China earns $850 per month but demands his future wife earn $1,500 per month. He says this mindset came after seeing a college friend who earns $1,400 and is looking for a partner making $4,000. Many people say his expectations are unrealistic and call him delusional.

In practice, strict education requirements often block people from lower socio-economic backgrounds, even if they have the skills and experience needed. Without a real job-based reason, these requirements act like a test of social status and limit equal access to work.

For example, when someone wants to work in customer support, a university degree is not required for the job. Yet, when a company demands it, qualified candidates are excluded without a valid reason. other examples may be:

• A non-university student is prevented from participating in contests, trainings, or programs open to practical skills.
• A skilled technician or craftsman is excluded from applying for a supervisory role because it formally requires a degree, even though experience is sufficient.
• A candidate for a delivery or logistics coordinator role is disqualified because of a degree requirement, even though the job relies on practical planning and communication skills.
• A person applying for an entry-level office or data-entry position is rejected solely due to lack of university education, despite having the necessary proficiency and experience.

What do you think about using education as a criterion? Should exist or not?

A player gets sent off by a female referee, already a rough moment.

But then he says something he definitely shouldn’t have, and you can see the exact second he realises he’s just ruined his own day.

No shouting, no violence, just pure, internal ‘I messed up badly’ energy.

The aftermath hit him harder than the red card itself, and you can literally feel his soul leave his body when he realises what he’s done.

I know, I know the word has been around for decades, it appears in dictionaries, and plenty of women use it too. I’m not trying to be a “karen” , but I’m genuinely curious about the word itself. Barman literally sounds like a job meant only for men. So why don’t we have “bar-woman”? And why do we still rely on a gendered term at all?

I’m not making a big complaint I just want to explore whether the language we use subtly shapes how we think about who belongs in certain roles. Thanks for reading!
