. Hey you feminists! Is it okay to be male? (If so, then what is the "male equivalent" to the word, "feminism"? YOU know, "feminism" expresses the idea that women are equal, and should have all the same privileges, and DO have all the same abilities as males. What about the belief that males are equal, and should have all the same privileges, and DO have all the same abilities as females? And I'M NOT talking about our ol' pal CHAUVINISM here, friends!

. Hey you non-Anglos! Is it okay to be Anglo? Am I allowed to be proud of elements of my Anglo heritage? There are elements, such as literature, philosophy, music, and so on, which arose from my heritage, and of which I speak here. May I be allowed to be proud of these?

. Hey you believers! Is it okay to have little or no religious conviction? I'm not convinced...

PLEASE UNDERSTAND, dear listeners and answerers, I'm not ranting! I'm asking! I'm glad to allow space for others...is there room for me anymore?

You are allowed to be as proud of yourself as much as you want as long as you don't use that pride to beat down others and try to make yourself feel superior at their expense.

first of all, the male equivalent of feminism would be, get this now, FEMINISM! If women are equal to males in all aspects, males would ALSO be equal to females. In our society, the ones whose rights are consistently trampled are the ones who the policies are named after. In this case, the women.

Secondly, sure it is OK to be Anglo. But since the Anglo's in society are the privileged class, you have to realize that rights are seldom, if ever, withheld from the majority like they are for the minorities. That is why in the US we HAVE political correctness; to make sure that the majority doesn't abuse the power and deny minority rights.
