[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 95743, member: 35"] I just didn't see it satirizing political correctness, but I'm open to hearing why you believe it does. What I got from it was that women feel unsafe around men to the point of having to always carry weapons, and that we've "ruined" many things for them. The funny thing is being vigilant is not exclusively a woman's issue because bad things can happen to anybody at any time. They also said that men ask why they don't speak up, and they claim they're not taking seriously when they do. I know women have been oppressed at times, but it just felt like the tone was that men have never been on their side or listened to them when they've spoken up. Personally, I feel that does a disservice to the men that have been on their side. Maybe I've taken it wrong, but that's the vibe I got. Yeah, perhaps. Is that the satire of political correctness, because white women feel like they [I]have [/I]to tell black women they're more oppressed? I just don't see why some people treat oppression like a competition. Either you've been oppressed or you haven't. In a nutshell. [/QUOTE]
