Bigotry.....
Apr. 29th, 2007 09:22 amI Love Progressive Bigotry. Yes, I said Progressive Bigotry. This Belief is generally stated as, “We’re all alike. Our Differences are Superficial”. What is Usually meant is, “Everyone is really just like us, just with different costumes”….
This is not True. Peoples ARE Different. Even within the same geography there can(and usually is) be great differences in Ethnicity, Culture and Gender Roles. Accepting someone’s Differences is different than acting as if the Other is simply You in an Exotic Costume…one that once they take off shows them no different than yourself. Accept or Don’t Accept the Differences between Peoples, just don’t pretend that they don’t EXIST.
After all, a Doberman and a Dachshund are both dogs but their differences are more than “skin deep”. They can also Breed;>…..
