This religious group hangs out on campus holding signs. Now, I'm used to anti-abortion signs and things like that but these signs say things like "bossy women are sin" and that "a woman should never speak unless spoken to". They preach submissiveness among women and scream at people. I don't understand how they're allowed to do this but somehow they are. Some people get into arguments with them which I don't get because obviously they are impervious to any compassionate or logical argument. I just hate watching them. Supposedly there is no way to get them out because a state funded campus is a public forum where you can express whatever views you want. It's just sickening. I have worked damn hard to get where I am and have put up with sexist bull and know more women who are more intelligent than these disgusting guys. Just makes me wonder, when we have a black president and came very close to having a woman president or a woman vise president.....several countries have either had or currently have a woman prime minister or president or queen. Women have won Nobel prizes in several areas of science, some (Marie Curie) won 2 in 2 separate scientific areas. Not to mention we GIVE BIRTH. And somehow this kind of mentality still exists.
Thanks for this!
