It's valid. I have thought about this too. My conclusion is that it's because he's exploiting your kindness. Women are in general brought up to be more polite, to never offend, to never hurt someone's feelings.

Yeah totally agreed. I do still think it would at least help to have things decreed from management in an otherwise-positive environment, or at least have management declare to staff that they care about the issue - since that allows the employees to care on the record instead of just around the lunch table.

I was about to say "no offense" but i guess I do mean offense -

Thanks for your awesome comment. I think the main problem is likely that the dev teams just...don't have any/many women on them. It's that simple. They probably don't want to touch gender identity with a 10 foot pole because they don't feel like they have much of an authority to "speak" (or, build) on behalf of…

What. the. hell. dear god. am i crying from a tiny wolf's learning?

This video. I am dying. This man's puppy talk is incredible

Let's listen to young women, even beautiful ones, when they say they don't agree with our female beauty standards! I was thrilled to exit my 20s and be taken more seriously. Fading beauty is, at worst, a metaphor for mortality, but it's not the lever controlling it.

Yeah it's come in extremely handy for this scenario: I want to work for that company Acme Inc. Who do I know that works there? Oh shoot, looks like no one. But wait, 4 of my friends each have a friend who works there! Voila 4 people just referred me to Acme Inc and I look like a rock star.

You didn't read the comment. The healthcare is free for me, because my company pays for it. It costs them a shit-ton of money. It costs taxpayers $0.

How the F is your excellent comment still in the gray?

That's funny, I love the daily show, AND affordable healthcare for all.

Dude, "showing affection" is not inherently rude.

"Unless someone is infringing upon your rights or threatening your safety with their behavior, shut up."

Maybe it's just the East coast then. The Amtrak lines that run through Michigan and Chicago are effing amazing. They're quiet, calm, huge, clean, and I'd say.... luxurious even. Plus sometimes you get internet.

THEY DID? D:

I think about this too! The modernness in a face.

#waysaroundscience is the best hashtag I ever saw.

Agree completely.

Edit: You are talking some extremely reasonable talk here. I think the spirit of my rambling on this topic must have been meant for another commenter!

Best news ever. Veep is PERFECT.
