Category: Political correctness Good A "recent decision by New Zealand's opposition National Party to name one of its lawmakers, Wayne Mapp, as a spokesman on eradicating 'political correctness'." Bad One of Mapp's discoveries was that "both Qantas and Air New Zealand have now confirmed that they would not seat a child traveling alone next to an adult male passenger". I guess I'm just not "with the program" but that seems very wrong to me. As stated by a bloke who was moved at the start of a flight: "Men are being demonized in the media for a long time now. I think probably this is just society's reaction -- they think, 'We'd better start tightening up on everything.' It's getting to the stage when all men are viewed with distrust," he said. |
