ATTACKING WHITE MALE "PRIVILEGE". I CAN SEE WHY SHE DOES

The ABC gets the Sydney University's Student Union President to defend a report complaining that white males talk too much in tutorials and make others "question whether we know anything”. The president, a woman of Chinese background, makes the same complaint but so badly that the ABC host must help to explain her points. And men are to blame?

Watch here.

To repeat my point, asking men at tutorials to act more like women (how patronising and sexist) and speak less is to lower standards and surrender to mediocrity.

The challenge instead is to have those women and alleged victims speak up.
