Discrimination used to be from my town / not from my town.

When travel was by foot or horse, most people never went more than 30 miles. And a new face in town was discriminated against. And well, you don't know them. They may be good, they may be bad.

This discrimination still happens in almost every small town.

Now, discrimination over hiring, by sex, is one of those button pushing things with me.

I worked construction, and it was the rare woman who could do the job minimally well. Women aren't as strong, and aren't as mechanically inclined. Being forced to hire women for quotas was absurd to me. Basically it came to hiring any woman who showed up on the site. And you gave them menial tasks like fetching ice, or a nothing job like counting nails.

And if you want to know true discrimination, try to be a male teacher. Especially in K - 6. It takes a man with a very thick skin to live in that environment. You are a child rapist by default (although statistics prove the opposite is true). And you are shunned by all the women who believe this is a woman's job.

Being discriminating is a right. Not being able to discriminate in hiring means I will just never have a large company.
