It feels like really close to home. Probably because it is really close to home. I nearly went to Glasgow Uni and I’m exactly the sort of person who would have been active in the debating scene.
Furious that I’m at risk of being associated with this sort of behaviour.

In an unnecessarily sexist and clearly misogynistic atmosphere, it was left to women to complain. None of the men present stood up and called other men out for referring to a young lady as a "frigid bitch". That's unchivalrous and cowardly. It's the equivalent of weedy little boys backing up the school bully.
If that's what young Glaswegian men are like nowadays, it explains a lot about the decline of Scottish football, among other things.

I thnk the author has followed much the same reasoning as I do when I think about the issue and I don’t think I can disagree with their analysis or even their outcomes.
And yet their outcomes looks very odd to me. I don’t believe them at all.
I’m having some kind of cognitive dissonance or a mind melt.
Perhaps too much coffee this morning.
