- Latest Review: You Say Goodbye by Keith Steinbaum
You make an excellent point. Not because we see something as "normal" it means it's right. Misogyny, for example, was the norm for most of humanity's existence, and that doesn't make it right. There are, for sure, some "normal" things we do now that are wrong. I wish I had the perspective that hindsight brings to see them and improve them.Krista Kirby-Dempsey wrote: ↑09 Jun 2022, 16:05 I think context is always key. I also think that time has nothing to do with it. Like yes, terms were used, but that never made them okay to use in the first place. Not all people used the derogatory terms that have been used throughout history.
