A comment on Employers Used Facebook to Keep Women and Older Workers from Seeing Job Ads. Parent comment
Some people believe that discrimination on the basis of race/sex/etc is bad. By that standard, discrimination in favor of women is also bad.
Other people believe that imbalance is bad, and thus discrimination should be used to counteract this.
IMO people with the second opinion probably shouldn't call what they dislike "discrimination".
