Some of you will say you know this. But this goes further than just knowing. it's not just about saying "Oh, I know this!". It's about DOING. It's about lifestyle. It's about every day words and actions. It's about changing the world we live in, one word at a time, one action at a time. Over and over and over again, until it sticks.

Yes. For heaven's sake, live what you talk.

I'm sorry you see me as a sell out who is easily manipulated. I was linked here from a post whose purpose was to encourage men and women to share stories of men and women who have stepped up and done something- so we could recognize them for there actions and so that they could demonstrate for the unaware how to do it right and was still in that mindset. I've also noticed that cutting out every dissenting voice shuts down conversations and turns everyone into "yes-persons".

I agree that the original post didn't seem to me to be anti-male; just telling humanity to step up and quit disappointing us.

The major wrongs described against women does not negate his discomfort. But, his discomfort is not the point of this post. I thought the point of this post was to encourage people to "live what they talk"?

I wouldn't call you a "sell-out". I think that I've made myself abundantly clear as to what I think of [livejournal.com profile] delchi, though, and quite frankly, I think that he's done a good job of diverting everybody's attention from his original statement. But you're an adult, and I'm not going to presume to dictate opinions to you.
