While I appreciate the value of kindness and empathy, I don’t think it’s a suitable answer to the big issues in the world that concern my own interest in pointing out discrimination when I see it. I think kindness and empathy is mostly helpful with friends, family and random strangers, but it does nothing to change or create laws with the intention of treating people with kindness and empathy.
In this society that criminalises men for being men, we need to fight for their rights as much as others are fighting for the rights of women. We're all human beings after all.

Evolving to become an egalitarian
One of the things I really enjoy is growing and evolving because of new understandings, insights and experiences. I love writing about ideas, perceptions and opinions that I might have, while recognising that it's simply how I'm thinking in that period of my life.
I've realised today that I've been changing with one of my own beliefs, and I can see how that change has occurred over time.
