I think it’s pretty clear that the harm isn’t caused by equity, but that the equity exposes the harm caused by other things.



Yeah fair, I obviously don't think equity is a bad thing, I just think a lot of men were taught to rely on inequity and now that it's being reduced, those men aren't adapting.
