    Right, its nearly impossible to talk about changes in society as a wholly quantitative thing. Nominative identities are ‘fuzzy’, they shift, are created by peoples, and create peoples.

    Nevermind the unsubstantiated claim that there are fewer people with sexist beliefs today than in the past–what we can say, and indeed what really gets to heart of the matter of the interplay of forces in society, is that an identity, or “global person” has emerged–first as descriptive and then as something consciously taken on–set apart from the rest of society in an antagonistic relationship that as its entire foundation is predicated on sexiat beleif.

    IDK there is a bunch more that needs to be said. Lot to unpack in that original comment…
