Speaking of political correctness, who do people tolerate women's rights? It's just another excuse for sexism. I support the rights of all people (which encapsulates men and women). If you want a level playing field, you have to think beyond gender, skin colour, sexual orientation, etc. when we stop terms like women's rights, I know we've progressed beyond political correctness. I can't wait for that day.

At the moment women tend to be more discriminated against. Focus on the problems you know; however, in line with what you said you can't fix inequality by trading one group's rights with another (aka affirmative action) else you're just going to tip the scales the other way - eventually spiraling into an all-out revenge fest (which is happening in some countries that are dealing with racial inequality). This is where we are headed if we don't tread carefully.
