Can you provide an example? If you can, that is.

Sure, happy to oblige. Atheists like the first PP. White men in the Tea Party.

(Cue whining about how persecuted atheists and white men are.)

How is your quoting the pp related to your rant?

Why are only minorities with "an axe to grind" irritating to you?

What is "mainstream" society? Does "mainstream" society ever change or is it always the same?

What do you mean by "groups that are *actually* being persecuted?" Can you provide a counter example?

WTF? What's with the DCUM telepathy, even if yours is broken? How do I get myself some DCUM telepathy that actually works?

I did, you numbnut. Lesbians and gays are currently persecuted in the workforce, in some religions, by their families.

Do you understand the meaning of "counter example?" Can you reply without namecalling?

Those examples make no sense. I think you mean something else but are too chicken shit to say.

I mean exactly what I say. I have no idea what you think I "really" mean, but you're wrong, just as you've already demonstrated you're wrong about me being obsessed with you guys.

I'm off to talk to somebody sane.

So that means you won't be talking to yourself? Or is this one of those sarcasm things, and you will actually go off to talk to yourself?

Be careful - there's an atheist around the corner. Maybe the neighbor. Maybe your child's teacher. Maybe the mailman. OOGA BOOGA!

How are either of those two groups you mentioned minorities? Based on your post, it's pretty clear that you're talking about racial minorities.

I saw a program, maybe from NatGeo, of a matriarchal society where the men use makeup hoping to attract women. And some of the ladies were chauvinistic, saying things like, why shouldn't the men try to please them. Very interesting.

Wow. I just wear makeup to hide my horrible facial scarring, because it hurts when I overhear little kids asking their parents "what's wrong with that lady?" and "was that girl in a fire?" The worst is "What's wrong with her face?" Sorry, but I'll keep on with my makeup.

I'm sorry for your pain. But this is not what the pp is referring to, I'm sure. I think she is referring to society's expectation that women must wear make up to be appropriately presentable. Especially in young adult social gatherings and then later law and business/professional settings.

Get out of DC. I live in Berkeley and while I do shave and don't ever wear Birkenstocks, I also don't wear any makeup beyond sunscreen and lipgloss on a regular basis to work. And I look completely appropriate and presentable in business and professional settings, and I am a young adult.

Wait until you're 45. You'll NEED makeup by then. Trust me.

Well, I'm 48, now, so...

How can you be both 48 and a young adult?
