I honestly don’t think we should at all respect values that put women and gays as sub-human. That just doesn’t go against “western values”, it goes against what it means to be a human.

You wouldn’t have to be careful if you weren’t up to no good, men becoming Ned Flanders-like in their fluster, bewailing the Dawn of the Woman Unencumbered by Fear of Making a Scene, typing through self-righteous tears on their twit-twatter about “witch hunts” [sic] and “lynch mobs” [sic]. They see no contradiction in…
