Who else does not agree with the term: “reverse discrimination”?
Question:
It implies that there are certain groups: religious, ethnic, gender, etc. that are not capable of discrimination, and that’s not true, we all discriminate in one way or another regardless of who or what we are a part of. Or am I wrong? If you think I’m wrong please explain why. (And this is not an angry question by the way it’s just something i’ve been thinking about.)
Answer:
I agree with you. Discrimination is discrimination. There is no such thing as reverse discrimination. The only thing that could be reverse about it would be if the least common person is doing the complaining as opposed to the most common. Example: A white person claiming racial discrimination from another ethnic group. Or a man claiming sexual discrimination against a woman. The role is reversed from the “usual”, but in legal terms it’s still discrimination, not reverse discrimination.
