DeeEmm, just wanted to touch on this, not in a negative way, but just to shed some light on what you have to say here.

The sooner that people start actually believing that we are all equal, instead of just paying lip service to it, the sooner the world will start to become a better place.

First of all, equal in what status of reality. No that is a falsehood, we are not all equal in presence or in being, mental capacity, physical capacity, (deserving of equal treatment absolutely), but definitely see more not equal in the presentation you are trying to portray here.

Just a scenario, say your 98 year old grandmother goes to the store, and is trying to purchase a case of her favorite adult beverage, should the clerk assist with the burden, of course out of equality absolutely not, let the old hag carry her own drinks.

now same situation, fella on crutches comes in a clear amputee, should the clerk assist in helping with the burden?

same scenario, 23 yo smoking hot blonde makes the same purchase, should the clerk be bothered with assistance?

construction worker getting off for the evening, soiled uniform, makes the same purchase should the clerk be bothered with assistance, as its very clear this guy has had a hard days work?

each case is distinct and different as we are as people. each persons life and life surroundings are different. so your perception of equal is a basic waste or words. but to dwell on that just a tick further,

a man has two children, one daughter, one son, both apply for a job at the local department store. position requirements state that you must be capable of lifting 60 pounds. of course out of desire for the position, both check off that they can lift the required weight. the daughter is hired, and one day called up on to perform her assigned duties of lifting a received shipment of 59.7 lbs, not even the max limit that was agreed that she would be able to lift as part of the positions requirement, and fails unmercifully to lift the package, and is ultimately released from her responsibilities. now you say, well the understanding was that she would lift or be able to lift 60 pounds, yes, but given the girls physical complexities, one with common sense could derive at a conclusion if this were a farce to believe that say a 85lb'r could lift 60 lbs. equal i would revisit that one ol fly, becuase i think that is just a twist on words that have been demeaned over a period of time.

also, you used two words that i can assure you, you have no idea what you even wrote:

sexism and racism.

something simple for you to do with this one, no long drawn out process of reading my blurbs. define ISM as the suffix, then come back and let us know what these two words mean to you.
