Hey guys,
I intended this thread to be about work conditions for trainers, not program structure and quality. Perhaps a different thread for that?

| Just as an example: I was accused once of sexism for saying that, in my experience, women are better teachers than men. Call it maternalism that makes it so, I don't know, but this is what my experience has been. The teachers that I have learned the most from, with the most effective approach, that I have observed to be more effective - have been women. Sexist? Maybe, but hardly worth complaining about a casual comment of such! |
Tedkarma, yeah this is the problem with western culture today. People have been taught so much about sexism and racism that any comment that one would make about a gender or a race is construed to be sexist or racist even if empirical evidence can prove it to be true. It makes one wonder if freedom of speech really exists today. |

It's very often impossible to separate the two, i.e., people feel free to comment on both. |
