Quite simply I don't like the idea.
As for other threads, sometimes I don't see them as I often don't click on threads outside of the the major forums or in my sorority's forum, so sometimes if they're in the D9 forum, I don't come across them. And a lot of times, I feel like the right thing's are being said already. But sometimes I just watch and learn. There are a lot more educated people in the subject of racism and inequality than me. And sometimes it devolves into a fight between a few members and I stop watching for a while. (Almost happened with this thread and macallan's entrance and comments)

I felt like I had a point to bring up here, and I did. And I appreciate the discussion I've gotten from the majority of those who've replied.

Cool.

Some of your posts read like you're championing some grand cause. So I'm just wondering what you think the grand cause really is.

I don't really mean to

But if I had to pick one it would be that all people get judged, evaluated, etc. for everything they do, as individuals whether it's a mortgage, an apartment, sorority membership, or shopping in a store. Seeing it regarded as ok on a microlevel implies that it's ok on the macrolevel or that it's some sort of tit for tat thing.

That said, I never really tried to bring this discussion up the macrolevel, but went with it when other posters did to some extent.
