White Priveldge Confrence

[Watermagnet]

Would you trade places with any woman or any other race? I know I sure wouldn't.

You clearly haven't tested with a civil service city to obtain a job, ever heard of the "rule of 3's"...They want to hire 50% of the minority applicants even though they = 5% of the testing populous. Hopefully they're responding to your house and not mine. White/Black/Yellow/Brown/Green I want the most qualified person, not the most under-represented to save me and mine. To each their own...

You didn't answer the yes or no question. I worked hard to get where I am, too. Still wouldn't trade places with any of those so called priviledged underclass, because I know that being a white male in the US puts me in the best position. Racism and reverse racism exist, as does sexism and reverse sexism. Telling us how you are or are not affected isn't data; it's an anecdote. As a class, white males have it better, on the whole, than any other race or gender group. Why are the women and minorities given preference? Because, in general, they can't compete on an equal footing. And why are you trying so hard to work for the .gov?

Acceptance of this term = horse shit...Discrimination = Discrimination = Discrimination. The definition of discrimination is " the process by which two stimuli differing in some aspect are responded to differently". For someone that wants mathematical/scientific evidence of everything you're sure willing to accept a societal definition of an imaginary term.

I'm just going to say politics is involved in all this city shit. I don't like it nor condone it. No one gets a "fair" shake when it comes to politics and quite honestly I know nothing about civil service jobs so I won't comment. My other post had literally nothing that pertains to your comment...

Okay, we finally agree on something...Politics shouldn't have ANYTHING to do with hiring anybody for any position. Most qualified = Hired. Black/White/Female/Male/Gay/Straight/ It shouldn't matter, but unfortunately that is not the society we live in. ..
