The post about ‘why people don’t help others more’. I sort of knew that before, but i was somehow sure that it only happens in certain areas of life, like signing a petition against spring hunting if they have already expressed their opinions about other ‘hot’ environmental topics. It had been just an isolated, unfortunate but reliable tendency that others had. After i read the post, I wondered, for the first time, if I myself am generous.
I like reading SSC in that though I have to identify myself as weakly feministic (as in, assertive on my own behalf and on behalf of other girls who challenge the archetype of predominantly male environmentalists—I just don’t get why people prefer to be fined by men and not women), I don’t have to share all feminist ideas without consideration. It feels so liberating (until you go out to real people.)
