i saw a nice analogy about this sort of thing once

basically 3 people trying to look over a fence, and 3 boxes
lets label the 3 people with numbers
one person (person 1) can just see over the fence, the next person (person 2) is one box smaller than person 1 so cannot see over the fence at all, and the final person (person 3) is another box smaller than person 2 so definitely can't see over the fence either
actual equality is giving nothing to person 1, one box to person 2 and two boxes to person 3 so that everyone can see over the fence at the same height
your idea of equality, however, is giving one box to each person. person 1 will be a box higher and will get a better view, person 2 will just be able to see over the fence but will not get as much of a view as person 1 and person 3 will still not be able to see over the fence at all

do u understand the analogy here

You didn't see an analogy, you saw a picture that displayed this analogy.

Now you've got something to die for.

Equality is good, people have no need to be treated specially because of a disability or handicap.

I don't care about the point, no people deserve to be treated differently than I am.

Like how guys can't hit girls, that's not equality, it's a s3xist double standard,

guys can hit girls just fine there are absolutely no laws against it
it's your OWN double standards that make you think that guys can't hit girls

In all honesty, I have been in Special Education my whole life and I don't even call myself "Special"

It's BS.

so why do you treat disabled people differently to how you treat yourself

Why would I play with a disabled person's funstick? And it's not my double standard, I think it's BS, it's a double standard that most of society believes.

I think equality
should be about same advantages and same consequences
good example
Geek and Popular Girl
Popular Girl: Wow thanks for picking my stuff up. Here, if you need any help. You can call me.
Geek: HEY CAN YOU COME OVER AND TELL ME THE ANSWERS TO THE HOMEWORK -shortly after- SHUT UP NO ONE CARES ABOUT STAR WARS
Popular Girl: Aw I feel sad for you. Your parents yelled at you for not cleaning your room. I know what pain you're in.
Geek: -ignores and geek is forever alone-

Sorry, I didn't know being born with something you can't pick means death.

'And it's not my double standard, I think it's BS, it's a double standard that most of society believes. '

do you wanna know a few other gender-based double standards that most of society believes
being a 'player' as a guy is ok but as a girl it isnt. how weird
why does the 'friendzone' only have guys in it? that's also pretty weird as well
if someone is feminine they're also seen as being weak. that's odd
i wonder why girls are taught to not wear 'revealing' clothing but guys aren't taught to control themselves? hmmmm
why is it that when a guy says 'i believe in equality' he's praised but when a girl says 'i believe in equality' she has profanities slung at her? this is a strange development
