Yeah... see that tells you how long I've been out of school. ;-)

It's PC to say "one person's suffering is no worse than another" or that 'discrimination is discrimination". But I've never, ever bought that.  Yes, the fact that I'm a woman does make it a bit easier to understand how gay people must feel, but it's not the same, even with the institutionalized sexism.  Cis people probably have it harder than gays.  Blacks in the 60's had it far harder than gays do.  Slaves had it harder than blacks in the 60's etc.

And while I would love it if fat, bespectacled, short atheists were not treated badly, on average their lives will not face the trials that a gay person, or black person or cis person has it.
