Why is it usually the white male that seems to always be complaining about things being to PC nowadays? I know right? I can't say racist , homophobic and misogynistic crap now with consequences...

It's not so much that we can't say racist, homophobic, and misogynistic carp now without consequences. It's that every other group can say any anti-white, anti-male carp they want without consequences.
You know, like you just did when you insinuated that ALL white males are racist, homophobic, and misogynistic.
It seems that the more vocal someone is in protecting the perpetually offended classes, the more openly bigoted they are with their accusations against white males. Some us white males find that hypocrisy and the associated double-standard to be outrageous and unfair.
But then, you don't care if white males are treated unfairly.... do you? And why should you? They deserve whatever criticism they get don't they? Sure they do. After all, they have to answer for the sins of their fathers going all the way back to the Crusades, and further if necessary. So let that bigotry rip for the good of mankind. Only through punishing innocent people can we cleanse the collective conscience and find the path to Utopian paradise.
Well first off I didnt' say ALL I said it is usually white males complaining about being PC. I never said ALL white males complain about this. Out of curiosity how many women's teams have had this kind of thing uncovered? What was the racial makeup of the Amherst team again? What sex is committing most of the sexual assault?
Read through the thread and how many posts are saying , this isnt' a big deal, guys will be guys?
Of course most white males (at least those I come in contact with on a daily basis) aren't this way.
Do I think white males should be treated unfairly of COURSE NOT. However if we look at the scope and numbers of folks being treated unfairly I'm not seeing white males at the top of the list(not even close). Most of what I see are along the lines of "We don't want to hear your opinion mr white male" I'll be much more concerned about this unfair treatment of white males once it gets even close to what others are dealing with.
The other interesting thing I thought of reading your reply. I don't feel guilt or defensive when reading about white male privilege. I have nothing to apologize for but I do recognize what is going on. I also find it kind of amusing that for the first time ever we white males are actually having to deal with a bit discrimination/crap, which is not even close to what women, minorities and gays have had to deal with for decades and are all upset. OMG someone said I have white male privilege, that is almost the same as what others have been dealing with...
