I don't make a lot of personal posts so please bear with me. #Rufus hasn't been doing well for the past week or so. I mean, he's 13 (at least), and has slowed down due to age, but the past week or two he's been acting like every movement is a Herculean effort. A few times in the past couple of weeks his rear legs have given out on him completely to where I've had to pick him up and carry him which is, in itself, telling. Rufus has always hated being carried and struggled continuously when I did so. Yesterday while petting him I noticed two golf-ball sized things up under his chin. Now, they may be benign lipomas as Rufus is covered with them (one one each thigh, one on each shoulder, one on his chest and a few smaller bumps here and there) or they may be indicative of something else. I'm no vet and aside from emergency medic battlefield training I have no medical experience whatsoever, but these new things seem to be where your or mine lymph nodes are located....

Sexism
prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination, typically against women, on the basis of sex.
Not, I'm petty sure I now the difference.
It's also why I can instantly dismiss anyone who uses the term 'reverse sexism' … that's not a thing.
Gender parity is not gender equality?
*par·i·ty1
ˈperədē/
noun
1.
the state or condition of being equal, especially regarding status or pay.*
Seems like gender parity would, indeed, be gender equality.
Children understand this moral clarity reflexively.
Adults, apparently, pretend not to know it.
