16. OK but you DO realize my BIGGEST complaint is this?
Edited on Fri Jul-30-04 09:32 PM by nothingshocksmeanymo
Many white males raise your argument while none EVER have lost a thing, whereas, nearly any woman or minority in the workplace CAN cite ample evidence of discrimination, be it wages, passed up for advancement, left out of events, or simply not being hired...so on the ONE side we have FEAR of a consequence and on the other side we have actual discrimination...I believe a compelling public interest still exists in protecting women and minorities from this treatment.

I do believe one day it won't matter or be necessary but I think that is still decades away.

(BTW..wasn't flaming you)
