Because, many will argue, the white male is now a minority thats being oppressed...

At 49.8% or some similarly dumb number, the facts are there. And I've seen advertisements for jobs etc that say my genetic mix isn't welcome, like being French is a choice or being left-handed. The components of reverse sexism are there.

I hope that if I learn to cope with minor disadvantage, that we can keep the equality movement as an equality movement and not some revenge play where I get penalized too often for something I wasn't a part of.

There. I know my own opinion smells like virtue signalling while it also doesn't placate people who've been hurt and want payba-uh, justice. Ironically I'll be downvoted to hell for promoting equality, I expect.
