Ostriches
Soon we must step out about gender. Why are we so fearfully opposed to or fearfully unable to have a discussion about the matter? We know the appropriate way to think about these matters, but we will not even have a dialogue. What is the problem with our culture that we will not address the gender problems that exist? In every debate, there are two sides, and dialogue can have several sides or perspectives. In Public Paradox, Deborah Stone writes about how in the US there is the pursuit of self-interests and not collective interest. Stone indicates that Europe has a more salient model that addresses culture and politics under the "rubric of 'integration policy'" this policy focuses on the values and behaviors of otherised groups. Why does Stone consider the European model better than the US policies? Why is the world so riveted on addressing US issues? We must speak about these matters instead of sticking our heads in the sand.
