Does Our Society Rest Too Heavily on Binaries?
With the presidential election coming up on November 6th, I've become overly aware of social binaries - Republican/Democrat, gay/straight, black/white, woman/man - the list continues.
Binaries leave so many people out, and that is hardly ever a good thing. Why do we try to limit ourselves to this black/white world and neglect the grey areas? I tend to dwell in the grey. Mostly because I'm fickle, but also because I don't prefer to limit myself - if I don't have to, why should I?
