Yeah, don't worry, I know it's not like that everywhere. Tim Send a noteboard - 12/03/2010 09:15:43 AM
Part of what I was thinking when I wrote that was "How can some of the US be so wrong, and other parts so right?" But I realise I didn't really put that across. Sorry.

That analogy is not apt. Dragonsoul - 12/03/2010 06:10:27 AM 767 Views

That's right, I forgot to add that. Dragonsoul - 12/03/2010 03:23:25 PM 705 Views
It's a rather key piece of any attempted analogy, wouldn't you say? Sareitha Sedai - 12/03/2010 03:45:15 PM 599 Views
Again, you're right. Dragonsoul - 12/03/2010 03:59:13 PM 582 Views
Yup. Sareitha Sedai - 12/03/2010 04:02:26 PM 686 Views

Kind of a different can of worms then Isaac - 12/03/2010 03:20:35 AM 661 Views
What?! Now that is a can of worms I could see getting in a fight over. Tashmere - 14/03/2010 01:24:47 AM 660 Views
Hmm. Apparently it is legal to discriminate upon the basis of gender. Imagine that. Tashmere - 14/03/2010 02:45:51 AM 638 Views
It kind of makes sense, given the highly arbitrary and stereotypical nature of gender. Ghavrel - 14/03/2010 03:35:44 AM 569 Views

No no, I know how you feel. I'm just disinclined to have sympathy for the school. beetnemesis - 12/03/2010 11:28:35 PM 561 Views
Alternatively, I have little sympathy for the school, I just don't have much for her either Isaac - 12/03/2010 11:56:08 PM 673 Views
