Well it's pretty straightforward. If someone wants to write about their views let them. Sexism isn't contagious, there's no problem.

It's complicated. if Facebook bans pages that are deemed to be racist, then I really do think they should ban pages that are deemed to be sexist also, and pages that discriminate against gay people etc...

Facebook is serious business. It's easy to offend someone, and it's fun too.

I tend to find outsmarting people with cunning arguments more fun than actually offending them...
