I'm actually not mistaken thinking that, since I'm not thinking that.

I'm saying that forcing people to a given conclusion is far less effective than letting them come to that conclusion themselves.

And yes, even if it takes a generation.  People used to be concerned about the Greeks setting themselves apart in the Danforth.  Now, there's just a few restaurants there (and, you know, Southern European immigrants, when they first arrived, had some pretty pronounced ideas about gender roles too...).
