I'm pretty certain you aren't as smart as you may think you are. Just as stupid as your initial statement. That and pretty narrow sighted. Your statement is ignorant pure and simple.

You can try to equate it to BLM groups but the point of the movement is to state "Our lives also matter just as much as the next person's life of a different race". Sadly, people like you don't see that. Yeah, there's a few bad apples that make that hard to see but there's bad apples within every race/ethnic class or group.

Black people, just as any ethnic group im sure, want to be treated equally across the board. Yet separate respectively by culture, or background, or whatever else makes a ethnicity unique in its own. Its not racist for a white person to be proud of being white. Just as it isn't of an asian person who proud to be asian or a hispanic person who's proud to be hispanic. Maybe YOU and a few others think others think its racist to be proud of being white.

Either way there is no hypocrisy in my post, just you being ignorant and seemingly racist in your interpretation and mindset. Just own up to it
Hope and Change man.... Hope and change.


Keep on wishing and hop the government will change it for you.

I wish it was the level playing field when it came to this.....What are the percentages of violent offenders in prison vs population again?

Men probably have a higher rate of accidents.
No shite!

There are more men drivers out there. However, I would rather look at the percentage of men in wrecks vs that of women.

Also car insurance is a fricking scam to begin with. I'm with the lowest company I can find, but my rates went up almost 20% and when I call to find out why, they woman said it was because they were losing money from all the claims. Well GEICO frick you. I have no claims with you, yet yall gonna rape the little guys who are doing good. But seriously, can someone take a corporation to court for raping them? We need to set this precedent.

Women-only gyms aren't an option in every state. If you wanted to open a male-only gym in a state that allowed it, you are free to do so. That would likely be a poor choice as many men go to the gym to interact with women. That reason is why women-only gyms are allowed - an expectation of privacy that cannot be had in a co-ed environment.

Empirical data shows men drive more, get more tickets and die at a statistically significant higher rate in auto accidents than women. This is not gender bias, it’s cost risk analysis.

Actually they can refuse you service for no reason at all. It’s funny how the consumer wants to be able to discrimate against corporations and businesses but then don’t think the same should apply in reverse.

Maybe if we stopped relying on the gov to “fix” everything and let the free market handle discrimination and racism then we’d actually make some progess

No shite. It don't take a fricking PhD in math-havin actuary to stop an think "why are males driving more often from 16-25 yrs old?"

Boys/Men drive chicks EVERYWHERE until marriage. Then we make them bitches drive while we scratch our nuts, drink beer, and criticize their driving.
