No, you got it all wrong - men have thick skulls, that protect our shriveled, twitching, penis-shaped egos.

That's not true. Cleveland steamers are only for very special occasions...

I'm sure they will take your proposition into consideration. Right after they're done "giving up" sexual harassment, domestic violence, pay-gap, "glass ceiling" and whatever else ails those crazy broads, amirite? Yeah, this guy gets it...

I think that it is wrong that black men are more likely to be shot by police. I think that it is wrong that black people tend to receive longer prison sentences than whites for the same crimes. I think that it is wrong that black people are less likely to to be hired by employers. But I am not self loathing.
Loathing is like a pyramid scheme. Once you have enough people loathing your white self for you, you can retire, I suppose.

We didn't invent slavery. Every race has practiced slavery. Whites and blacks both practiced slavery. So I don't feel especially responsible for slavery because of the color of my skin.
The only thing that's dumber than feeling guilty of things you haven't done is feeling proud of achievements you had nothing to do with...
Yeah, I don't feel responsible for slavery either. But if I am responsible for slavery - I'll be honest - I think I got away with it...
