All they can say is to either to go to a shrink or cry a river, build a bridge and get over it. Yes of course I can see your point. If it fits you the best, then it is the right movement for you. Everyone's going to need to make compromises, but if the movement isn't supporting what you believe in, then it just isn't for you. So, who's political views gays and feminists were supporting then? |
"Cry me a river" is exactly what I'm talking about. Dismissing it as something unimportant.
They were supporting their own causes. Gays supported gays, feminists only women. Then some members of each group started going to meetings of the other and saw the problems they were facing and wanted to help. The greater in numbers the movement became, the more people started to notice and the less politicians could ignore them.
