Despite the humor, this video served as inspiration to post my       concerns.              Now, it seems, sexism is perfectly kosher. According to the left, there is       simply nothing wrong with generalizing people on their sexual identity. How on       Earth did we get here? Was it in the schools? I'm in my forties yet my       education       taught that sexism is bad regardless of the victim. Or do we blame the legacy       press for lending this disgusting trend credance by refusing the smallest       morsel        of condemnation? It may come from different directions. We've been sort of       conditioned to accept sexism toward males throughout media. For years, I've       witnessed a commercial where the characters of the advertisement will denegrate       the 'husband' as a fool while the 'wife' is portrayed as the all-knowing. It's       usually spun in a humorous way to reduce the bite of insult. If I didn't know       any better, my mind would look at this as a years long campaign to make sexism       acceptable. And imagine that... We had a few solid decades where these issues       were largely solved. Now, thanks to the collective primitive mind of the left,       sexism has returned in full force.               For women joining combat roles, it seemed high time for it to become reality. I       celebrated it internally when I read the news of policy changes. It was       short-lived, however. Stories came out where fitness requirements were lowered       to accomodate these changes in policy. Sexism isn't over after all. It's just       covered in a different veneer. A true acceptance of women in combat roles       would even the requirments across the board. All members would pass muster       knowing that they operated on even ground. I can't imagine things going well in       the long run. The military is really only a small example of today's cultural       swing, but it is relevant.              As far as I'm concerned, this is all perpetrated by the feminist movement with       supported by men who'll say nearly anything to win the approving nod from       wife/girlfriend/professor. It has decayed to a point that feminism IS sexism.              I hope, at some point, our culture will catch up to this critical issue in       society and fix it.              Daniel Traechin                     ...
