| MTZehvor said: Fair, in as far as the dictionary is concerned (at least, when it's not talking about appearance) refers to a state of some sort of competition or contest where both sides start out on equal grounds. People get upset at accusations of cheating in poker, for example, because it means one player has an unfair chance. It's the same sort of thing here; if people don't start off at the same level, it isn't "fair," so to speak. The saying of "the world's not fair," comes into play here. |
That is almost never the case in the real world so your point is moot ...
Fair NEVER implies an equal starting state ...
Having better or worse starting circumstances is a part of life and all of us have to deal with it in some way ...
