Why bite your tongue? You can make your point delicately and kindly but very firmly.

So.... telling someone who has is permanently confined to a wheelchair..”see, told you I’m right....” is the right way to go?

Yeah, that’s how to win friends and influence people.

I read other of my female classmates’ fb pages and most of them seem liberal, hillary supporter types. about half seem divorced. After one painful experience with my old college GF earlier this year, i try to avoid bringing up politics with these women since apparently they have little tolerance for any other than a radical liberal point of view. I consider myself an old school feminist supporter, which when i was young made me a bit radical and subversive, but now it is nowhere near enough, and now i am feeling a need to recalibrate radically, along the lines of Heinlein’s Starship Troopers (a representative meritocracy).
