I accept that statistic, and I want to see that inequality addressed as well, because I'm an egalitarian.
But that statistic doesn't nullify my one about prison sentences of men vs women; it just demonstrates that inequality isn't as black and white as some feminists would like it to be. I'd wager than most people experience some form of inequality in their lives; none of it is good.
No it doesn't nullify it ... and men should get shorter prison sentences. In fact, we should imprison people much less, but we're a fucking inbred retributive society, with vile red necks running around everywhere, so what do you expect?
