For what it's worth, I'm with Jormungandr on this one. I don't think a case of superficially unequal treatment cannot automatically be called sexist in any meaningful sense before one considers the circumstances. Once you take into consideration the very different symbolic roles and sexual connotations of male and female breasts, which seem to be largely hard-wired by biology as far as I can tell, a superficially unequal treatment can in principle be less sexist than a completely equal one, because if you start with an uneven playing field, equal treatment does not necessarily mean fair.
Also, said OP struck me as not completely in good faith, but that is a subjective judgement and I don't have mind reading powers. As for the rest of the thread, I stopped following it because it seemed annoying, so I can't say anything about the other accusations that were flung.
But then again, I don't really passionately care about the issue, like, at all

What the fuck, am I chopped liver? I can remove my A69 contributions...
Oh gawd no. Don't do anything rash. I was just being lazy and whiny. Old habits are hard to lose. I guess I can click my way all the way over to area 69. No, no. I don't need any help.

Um, how "hard wired" is the bio response when breastesses don't do much for my tribe and me ?
(and yes, I'm aware a guy a close friend of mine is dating is really really really looking for a 'chick with a dick' and he ain't the only one, IOW, when it comes to [snicker] sexual attraction in response to various stimuli, there isn't anything that is 'universally' attractive or 'universally' repellent, although Brett Favre is pretty close in the 'attractive' category)
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

You're just wired a bit differently my friend

From my POV, it's everyone else that is way off the bell shaped curve . . .
(which is another oblique breastesses reference)

Maybe some day we'll have a fix for that.

Brett has something for everybody.
Women want to carry his baby, he's universally attractive and getting better as he matures, I bet 'straight' guys world wide would luv to boink him and I'd gape for his wonderful muscully arms.
What's not to like ?

Quoted for truth!
Steven Pinker Wrote:[...]first of all, the concept of fairness is not the same as the concept of sameness. And so when Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal," he did not mean "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are clones."
