(36,922 posts)Because that's when the last one was posted. If you want more examples your generation would have an easier time understanding, just set your DU google to "limp dick". There is no "makes things even" when it comes to sexism. Most people of my generation learned by grammar school two wrongs don't make a right. I hope it's the same for yours.
Perhaps your omnipotent crystal ball is just clearer than mine, but I just don't see every single post on DU out of thousands that are posted daily. I have spoken up about sexism on DU regardless of whether your crystal ball revealed it to you or not and if the post happened exactly as you describe, I most certainly would have in that instance also.
I never claimed the post in question made anything even. I'm sure you must think strawman gibberish is a brilliant rhetorical device, but I can assure you it only works on those too ignorant not to see right through it. Otherwise it tends to have the reverse effect once it's called out for exactly what it is. You might want to think about bringing your A game as this is entirely too easy.
