A contradiction in the liberal view of gender

RE: A contradiction in the liberal view of gender
@Khemikal, I see what you are saying now.

I think it's one of those situations in which given that society does not share one's ideals, it is impossible to act upon them fully without becoming a pariah. So we choose to compromise, and it becomes an inconsistency that is rightly a part of our nature. I don't think it's morally wrong at all; it's the constraints of society making someone compromise on what is idealistically the most logical answer.
