Sup /lit/, I'm not a regular on this board, but, I have an assignment for my AP English class in which I need to explain how my:

-race
-social class
-gender
-sexual orientation

have hurt or helped me in my life.

Do I cuck out and acknowledge my White Privilege? Or do I write something a little more controversial? I will appreciate any suggestions.

>In the preface to the NRSV Bruce Metzger wrote for the committee that “many in the churches have become sensitive to the danger of linguistic sexism arising from the inherent bias of the English language towards the masculine gender, a bias that in the case of the Bible has often restricted or obscured the meaning of the original text”.[2] The RSV observed the older convention of using masculine nouns in a gender-neutral sense (e.g. "man" instead of "person"), and in some cases used a masculine word where the source language used a neuter word. This move has been widely criticised by some, including within the Catholic Church, and continues to be a point of contention today. The NRSV by contrast adopted a policy of inclusiveness in gender language.[2] According to Metzger, “The mandates from the Division specified that, in references to men and women, masculine-oriented language should be eliminated as far as this can be done without altering passages that reflect the historical situation of ancient patriarchal culture.”[2]

Huh? Is there just a regular Bible I can get? Like one that hasn't been meddled with.

What are the best arguments against Marxism? They don't necessarily have to be pro-capitalist.

>In the early 1990s Wallace became obsessed with the writer Mary Karr. He considered killing her husband,[21] threw a coffee table at her and tried to push her out of a moving car.[22][21] Karr has complained that Wallace's biographer D. T. Max underreported Wallace's abuse of her. Of Max's account of their relationship, she tweeted, "that's about 2% of what happened. tried to buy a gun. kicked me. climbed up the side of my house at night. followed my son age 5 home from school. had to change my number twice, and he still got it. months and months it went on."[23]

The professor of an Australian university, who wrote an introduction to Kant, responded to me several times when I asked him to clarify Kant's conception of Time/Space.

Felt good.
