FO> I guess I am not very pleased with your attitude that girls want both 
FO> favourtism and equality. 
    Just like I'm sick of minorities playing the same game.
FO> male.  However stop and think about the privileges you gain because 
FO> you are
FO> a male. 
    Just think about the privileges girls have in school because they are 
female.  
    When they misbehave, they benefit from a documentable reluctance of 
administrators to suspend or corporally punish them as readily as their male 
classmates.  
    And before you start talking about male privilege, ask yourself why half 
the students in every advanced math class _you_ see are girls.
FO> a male.  As a female a lot of people do not take me seriously.  For 
FO> example
FO> I was called 'love' while fixing my car recently.
    That happens whenever a dishonest or inept mechanic/garage sees itself 
dealing with someone who's all thumbs mechanically...including my late 
ther!
FO> I am no love of his.  Also males are continually getting priveleged 
FO> in the 
FO> workforce.  
    "Privileged"?
    Female applicants for any job with an affirmative-action program are the 
"privileged" ones!
