Scruples
Question of the day:
In today's post-femenist era, if a number of people were upon a liner, and said liner began to sink, would it still be the women who were huried to accompany the children off the ship?
If so, why? Should the definition be broadened to parents? What is actual company policy in such situations? And whilst many would say that it should be both sexes equally allowed first dibs on safety, many would not - yet not consider themselves sexist. Are they right? Is there a 'right'?
Thoughts?
