I don't disagree with any of this.

And I would hope that the OP understands the esteem that I hold him in, which was one of the things that made the post so disappointing.

The entire post was something like "This is the reason that I wish ND had admitted women when I was there. " And a picture. And "This is Exhibit A."

That was it. And that was why I objected on the grounds that it was pure objectification.

What followed were posts along two lines:

1) This is wrong.

2) I don't actually think this is wrong, but the women might object, so take it down.

It was Point 2 that I objected to here. There is no deep thought, no empathy, no attempt to understand, just "the women might object for some reason, so maybe just take it down so we don't have to talk about it."

But we are getting there. At least QOTBR is gone.
