Do Women Really get Treated Like This???

Post by s f b »

The part that caught my eye was the last sentence of the last paragraph of the article.

The nagging question which remains unanswered is I wonder if decency and morality are strategically being bred out of them???

The article is about the new Miss America and her stance on abstinance with regard to teen sex. The final quote is:

"In her math class at school, she said a teacher watched and did nothing as a student sang "a horribly degrading song with words that I am not going to repeat today," she said. "The students retaliated in a very frightening way" and discussed plans "to pool their lunch money together to buy a rifle to kill me. And when I went to tell the principal this, his only remark to me was, 'If you'd only be more submissive like the other girls, this wouldn't happen to you.'"

This is a school adminsitrator who should be removed from his or her post.

Unfortunately, even in today's "enlightened" society, certain mores are still allowed, even though they are morally reprehensible (as in this case) and illegal.

The less we do to resist such damaging anachronistic ideas, the more they will propagate.

Respectfully,

Lee Darrow, C.Ht.
