"The millennials are the people who’ve inherited the hangover from the baby boomers’ party: a warming planet, a dysfunctional global financial system that rewards the rich and screws the poor, a polarized political class that’s moved so far to the right that a centrist like Barack Obama can be described with a straight face as “a socialist.” Millennials may be “narcissistic, materialistic and addicted to technology,” as Stein alleges early in his article; they’re also drowning in college debt, slaves to an internship “system” that demands ever-increasing work for no pay, and entrants into a job market that’s replaced employment rights with the “flexibility” of never being able to afford health insurance."

men at large feel like they are being robbed of something when an attractive woman with a 90% chance of developing breast cancer gets a double mastectomy

what better illustration of the male sense of sexual entitlement do you need

I don’t really understand what people want. The end game of all of this feminism stuff is just going to result in an indifference to anything that was once sexually enticing. 

No the endgame of all this feminism stuff is that women are going to be treated like people and equal members of society and not as sex objects.  If your boner is more important than a woman taking steps to reduce her risk of cancer, you really need to re-examine your entire outlook on life.

Taha Abu Latife, a 95-year-old Palestinian refugee who says he was forced to flee his village in 1948 and now lives in Qalandiya Refugee Camp near the West Bank city of Ramallah, walks home ahead of Nakba Day on May 13, 2013. Palestinians will mark “Nakba” (Catastrophe) on May 15 to commemorate the expulsion or fleeing of some 700, 000 Palestinians from their homes in the war that led to the founding of Israel in 1948.
