Positive discrimination never solves anything, in the long-term.
Most times it just masks real problems.
Yes, we all face different difficulties in life.
But ultimately we are all the same, at least in this country, and should always be treated as equals.

I agree with you G.
If it is a
women's group then all women, regardless of their ethnicity should be allowed to attend.
And yes, women of all ethnicities encounter problems in their lives......who is to say that these problems cannot be overcome by a concerted effort, and the experiences of other women, again regardless of their colour creed or ethnicity.......doesn't adversity help people to build bridges?
It would certainly help to achieve integration.....except that the menfolk from these ethnic backgrounds
may prohibit their women from attending.
