[QUOTE="Emelee, post: 48162, member: 73"] As someone who was born in the 80s, I can't say I have much REAL knowledge of the struggles that homosexuals, women and blacks have gone through. An ignorant person in my age could easily think that life has never been difficult for these groups. Especially if you are at least white and straight. It's like "what's all the b*tching about? It's not difficult to be gay, female or black". Well, not that much today - in the western part of the world. But it wasn't all that long ago when being gay was shameful and pretty much unacceptable. It wasn't that long ago when women were mostly housewives because working women were weird. In many western countries, all women didn't get to vote until around year 1920. And black people didn't really get to have good education, good jobs etc until very late. Remember Martin Luther King's speech? It was only 53 years ago. My mom was 8 years old. And if people think everything is great now, then maybe they need to open their eyes? How easy is it to come out as a teenager? We have no country in the world where women earn the same as a man in the exact same position, all jobs. We still need to demonstrate that "black lives matter". [/QUOTE]
