    Sure, but expressed in different ways. In the case of women, allowing them to proceed first is a traditional show of respect.

      That's FAR too complicated a notion for the left to comprehend.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        That’s so a 90’s thing. The modern thing seems to be an almost Puritan view.

            Well when you face the consequences of the whole sexual revolution thing, I suppose swinging all the to the other extreme might feel like a good idea.

              Unwittingly, they're throwing a lot of their own under the bus in this new purge.

                ...or, not so unwittingly, given the thread topic.

                    I never said otherwise. I'm simply saying that, in their zealous attempt to destroy the opposition, they're taking a lot of self-inflicted casualties.

                      Several liberal pundits have pointed out that the #MeToo movement claimed significantly more liberal scalps than conservative ones.

                      Just sayin.

                      I'm always still in trouble again

                        Keeping women "barefoot and pregnant over the kitchen sink" is a traditional attitude too. So is keeping women subservient to men. Maintaining such traditions is not necessarily desirable...maybe for men, but not for women.

                          Do you work at being that obtuse, or does it just come naturally?

                            And you consider that a traditional show of respect, do ya?

                              No, that was me letting the ladies out first. But, Tassman... in your honor, I stepped off of an elevator BEFORE a woman the other day. I shoved my way in front of her and got off first. I told her sorry, but I didn't want to appear to be toxic.

                                I wonder if these leftist really treat women that way?
