Probably not. We just let you think that so you'll do them.

Regarding the rest of your post, can you give a recent example of overt gender bias in YOUR workplace that affected you negatively. I'm talking something you could prove?

Wanting equal treatment in the workplace is genuine, and I think it's essentially a goal that's been achieved (you have to ignore spun wage stats to believe this). The rest of this "feminism" jibba jabba is ridiculous.

Men and women are not equal. We just aren't. Trying to "make" them "equal" is the biggest crock of shite ever.

Each serves it's purpose in society and life but they are not the same

As previously posted, I have never faced gender discrimination.

I don't think it's because it doesn't necessarily exist. I think it's because I'm realistic and know that working hard, learning, and being a team player will always outweigh the fact that I'm a woman.

Oh - and I rock the socks off of some chores, so watch your mouth

Thanks

That's what happens when you're the 5th generation of women in your family to get a college degree - eventually the other women will catch up and realize that typical gender roles play out to a woman's favor.

I pay the women that work for me the same as the men. So, I'm clear of this feminism guilt, right?


You should cut their salaries by 23% and pass it out to the men.

I don't know. I have a friend who, whenever I'm over for dinner or whatever, just watches TV while his wife will cook dinner and look after the two kids. Annoys me to no end, not because of feminism, but because he's being a lazy a-hole.
A few of the issues raised are legit

Most are bat shite crazy though

I've never really had an issue with it either.

Guy I know is extremely misogynistic. He's said things like "Well, she's a woman so I take her thoughts with a grain of salt" about normal shite. But he's not my boss or boyfriend or anything else.. so I just think of him as a dickhole and move on with my life.

I don't find too much inequality in my workplace, but social things bother me more. Some men claiming they'd NEVER date a woman who slept with them early on or who have a high number of past sexual partners.. but those same men being men who have lots of one night stands themselves.

The guy I referenced ^^ actually thinks that women should be this wholesome/perfect person who doesn't enjoy/long for sex.. but this same guy texts several girls a night while we're all out and gets legit angry if none of them want to come over and bang him. Or he'll meet a girl and go on several successful dates and start to really like her. But as soon as she decides she likes him and wants to sleep with him, he is done with her. It's like these poor girls have to pretend to hate sex or something because they're whores otherwise.

Probably raised Catholic like me. It's been a long journey for me to realize that chicks actually like to bang.

I am sure there are women out there who say they would never date a grown man who doesn't have a job and lives with his parents but don't get into these details when they meet a guy at a bar they want to bang because he has a pretty face and six pack abs.

Nothing wrong with either side.

consider donating a symbolic 23% of your income to social justice-oriented causes. If 23% sounds like a lot to you, that’s because it is a lot and it’s also a lot for women who don’t have a choice whether to forfeit this amount or not.

Eh. I see it a little differently though. This guy wouldn't date a girl who DOESN'T have sex either. Because he loves sex.

He wants a girl who will have sex with him, but won't initiate it or express enjoyment from it.

The girl you're referring to wouldn't see the guy past a hookup if he lived at home and she was against that. The guy I'm referring to will spend weeks courting this girl and going on dates and whatever else..and he wants to have sex with her.. but if she is confident and initiates it or whatever, he is turned off.

It's almost like he needs one girl for relationship, and someone else for sex. Because he can't handle someone being both.
