It can be hard when those with irrational and harmful beliefs are in positions of power, using that power to steer society toward inequity and injustice.

Given that many religious folk have already swallowed the whole 'free-market' neoliberalism dogma as part and parcel to the 'individual freedoms' that no religion has ever championed, I'd say that materialism has already become paramount.

Because the institution and dogma have done far worse to greaten gender inequality over centuries than any other structural condition.

Yeah, wow. That's the first time I've ever seen that mistake actually made, rather than made fun of.

How are none of these responses, simply: headphones.

It was a really festive memorial with singing and dancing etc. Hers was one of the only solemn/stern faces.

Weirdly wideset eyes and a jaw that swallows it's own chin?

I'm one of those men, and I've had three relationships of 3+ years with women who wear absolutely no make up. None. At all. And no shaving of the armpits or legs either.

Been done before. The cool kids have already been listening to the garage rock band Personal & The Pizzas. And actually, these guys are really great.

Bill and Melinda Gates: cool billionaires that are single-handedly destroying the US public education system through the introduction of charter schools, or the coolest billionaires that are single-handedly destroying the US public education system through standardized testing initiatives?

2008 called. It wants its 'hipster' jokes back.

Bill Gates and the Gates Foundation are almost single-handedly destroying the US education system. It's horrifying.

Ok. So that makes sense, but I still wonder why 3/4 guys shouldn't get a response (assuming they sent a reasonable and respectful message) just because 1/4 dudes are a-holes about it? Of course, this is all your prerogative, but I assume that weirdos and a-holes are part of the online dating territory, and that it's…

Don't pull out the 'shaming' trope. This is a matter of devaluing women via the shallow and demeaning pursuit of one-dimensional 'beauty' and 'fashion'. This is about the horror of associating 'empowerment' with self-objectification.

You really need to know some different people. I've never, ever seen that behavior from any of my friends on FB or IRL. And I'd immediately unfriend anyone that acted like that. So basically, don't complain about it if these are the people you choose to connect with.
