Post above. What you describe is actually inclusivity rather then equality. Equality is no one gets a step because everyone is treated the same. We need a combination of both with a bit of human decency and we would start to become a much better society all around. However this does not require all things to be tailored to everyone (or one particular demographic) which often becomes the aim in the name of "equality". |
See that's the problem for most people. Your looking at the "steps" but no one wants the "steps" they want the view. You all getting to view the game is a equal statement. Inclusivity does not make equality disappear. If Equality is a rectangle then inclusivity is a square. I could make a even simplier analogy this time with math. You have a six and a seven, both need to equal ten. So you add four to the six and three to the seven. Now they are both an equal number, ten. Please explain to me really how six getting a three and seven getting a three are equal. Yes it's equal distribution but it is not equal results. Remember I am viewing this as individuals not statistical averages of different groupings of people.

My apologies, when did my SEN module we did a lot of Equality and Diversity, however the emphasis was on Equality being "equal" while Diversity was the part which emphasised on giving the tools for people to be able to accomplish the same (whether this was printing work sheets on coloured paper for people with dyslexia etc.) however having read textbook definitions of Equality as legislation I see that refers to giving people the level playing field.
However "equality" is always spouted by proclaimed feminists as the purpose of their campaigns, which even more so viewing it like this, really isn't the agenda at all.
