pound me too has resulted in the following:

* men won’t meet with women 1:1 in the workplace
* men won’t mentor women
* men won’t touch women in the workplace other than a handshake
* men are ceasing to date women at all (MGTOW)
* men won’t give women CPR (https://www.theverge.com/2017/11/13/16643258/cardiac-arrest-women-cpr-emergency)

That last one means that women are physically dying from pound me too.

And all because they've turned themselves into victims.

I find that all of these points are also coming to bear with different races as well.

It’s not just if you’re a man interacting with a woman - it’s if you’re a white man interacting with anyone else who isn’t white or male.

A sales guy that was talking to me just ducked out of the deal .. suddenly ... because he thinks I’m a racist.

I made him really uncomfortable, but still didn’t change his mind, when I reflected that he didn’t feel comfortable around me because I am physically deformed. He balked at the notion. But for him he knew without a doubt that I wasn’t comfortable around him because he was black.

Are we both right ? Who really knows at this point. I know that I simply can’t be myself around anyone else because I will offend them. This was during the Kanye at the white house week when I’m sure I made some comments that simply didn’t fall on all ears the same way.

But the whole “Hashtag” thing was designed to dumb people down, to make them speak in a broken language so that ideas of rebellion could never take off.

I grew up the son of a programmer. For me “$” isn’t “Dollar sign” it’s “String”. And yeah, I catch myself quite often saying it. Talk about people not knowing what I’m talking about !

Heck, I even avert my eyes as I pass them in the hallway. It only takes one accusation to ruin a career.

The story of the hashtag begins sometime around the fourteenth century, with the introduction of the Latin abbreviation “lb,” for the Roman term libra pondo, or “pound weight.” Like many standard abbreviations of that period, “lb” was written with the addition of a horizontal bar, known as a tittle, or tilde ..

The Regressives are winning the day by owning the language. Do not let them.

>>And all because they’ve turned themselves into victims.<<

I have heard it said — by women — that 3rd wave feminism has turned women into couch fainters. They have thrown women’s “equality” back 100 years.

"...complained I looked like I was always growling."

I try to cultivate that look - people that know me, know I'm OK - everybody else tends to steer clear....

I didn't know that - it's interesting. Any good site for further reading?
