Haha what? I have more than a handful of international friends myself, and this is a thing we do to each other constantly. If none of your friends or colleagues ever pick on each other over generalizations about each other’s cultures, you need to get some better friends.

It’s secret answer number 3: don’t hire women because their impending motherhood is a financial liability for your company! And also lobby to be able to discriminate against them for using birth control you don’t approve of.

Ok, in that case I'm fine with that. As we already discussed, the courts have been steadily moving towards a framework of "best interests of the child" anyway.

Yes, you can, because the opposite of "women are the default caregiver" is not "legally mandated shared custody". But yeah, it's probably just that we feminists all hate fathers.

NOW explains exactly why they were campaigning to stop it, maybe you should read the remainder of the site you quoted if you would like an answer to that question. It's because the legislation doesn't provide for situations where domestic abuse is present, where the presumption of joint custody would be detrimental…

"Tender years doctrine was also frequently used in the 20th century being gradually replaced towards the end of the century, in the legislation of most states, by the "best interests of the child" doctrine of custody. Furthermore, several courts have held that the tender years doctrine violates the equal protection…

Again, you are ignoring the historical reason for why nursing is female-dominated. It's because medicine is male-dominated and always has been. Nursing is the supportive role to the physician. Nobody is arguing that there should not be more male nurses, I'm trying to explain to you that the reason nursing is primarily…

Actually, that 18% probably would not agree with you that it is self-imposed if you took the time to read about the experiences of women who work in male-dominated industries instead of just deciding that the reason for the disparity is self-imposed restriction.

Men do have equal rights to parenting, there has never been a legal presumption otherwise, which is why courts typically award joint custody when men petition for it. This is mentioned in the source you quoted.

Because there is not a lack of male representation in teaching or medicine. There is a lack of male representation in primary education and nursing because those roles have traditionally been seen as supportive roles that are the responsibility of women.

Do you believe that society views childcare as a woman's responsibility because NOW is campaigning against a piece of legislation that they suspect will negatively affect victims of domestic violence?

Men aren't interested in nursing and elementary school teaching because traditionally those have been roles that were seen as beneath men. Men become doctors (a leading role) while women become nurses (a supporting role). Men teach college (a prestigious role) while women teach children (a supporting role). This is…

Kelly Cutrone is a dipshit. She likes fashion because it allows her to be the bitch everyone else was to her in high school.

"What you're implying is that it's their fault they didn't know."

This is actually my most favorite thing about Coulter; she basically pretended to like D'Souza for long enough to exploit his access to the GOP until she made a reputation for herself, at which point she ditched his silly, pathetic ass and started her career. Also I love that Tim Geithner talks in his book Stress Test…

They didn't throw him to the ground until several minutes after talking to him. It's not like the guy spun around and just reacted, this was after a length of time where there was no reason to feel the need to respond that way. This wasn't about "oh they're so scared they're going to get shot in the head every day…

On a long enough timeline, we all become dad.

And the way she keeps pushing him like "get out of my spotlight dad!"

Because the right wing has been against feminism since women's suffrage, any new iteration of "things women agitate for" will automatically be seen as a Bad Thing that subverts the traditional role of men in society. When your political party is made up almost exclusively by men who inherited their influence, anything…

Tell us everything.
