I don't know; it's not like the maggots are going to tell me. But affirmative action exists; it's alive and well, and that's an irrefutable fact.
You yourself said that in your line of work a great deal of emphasis is placed on creating a "diverse" workplace, at the expense of efficiency. Come on now, what does that mean?
I can tell you that in Hawaii, being a white male is a serious hurdle to overcome if you want a government job, as well as many private sector jobs. It is best to be Polynesian or Japanese. I believe that discrimination is just as bad as any other.
should employers be allowed to discriminate?

In what job did you apply for that you were rejected because of being a straight white male? Or seen a straight white male rejected for?

Absolutely. I was asking seriously, I didn't mean to phrase it cynically.

I just reread my post, I see the feeling of asking cynically. I was asking seriously. I get it at my job, and I'm a white male.
