The CBC was rife with pro feminist articles today. But a section near the end of this article caught my attention. Trudeau, and Trump (!), partook in a round table discussion about how to encourage more women in executive positions.

What is this? Why is this a thing? The Apex fallacy annoys me to no end. People are so dumb to engage in the idea that "because there are more male CEOs, men are privileged". It's a dumb argument. Should we have a round table to discuss how we can have more female coal miners? Or taxi drivers? Or how about more homeless females?

Furthermore, how does a male CEO make me privileged? It maybe, perhaps, makes HIM privileged. It doesn't make me privileged.

That's like saying that having a white male Canadian PM shows that men are privileged. Ah, no. Our PM is "a feminist", and constantly stuck in 2015. That doesn't make me privileged. In fact, the exact opposite.

But whatever. Is Trump now buying into this propaganda too? I thought Trump was the first to speak against the grain and not subscribe to bullshit. So why would he participate in this round table?
