See you’re using logic here, you need to be using hyper-logic.

I wasn’t aware you could damage the earnings potential of someone getting a PHD in English. Pretty sure they damaged their own.

Not only no stigma, it’s positively reinforced. Look at all the professional angry white men in the media: Hannity, O’Reilly, Jones - all get paid millions to be angry all the time. An angry white male manager is “motivating” or “kicking all the lazy butts” but angry women? POCs? They are “bitchy,” “out of control,”…

White men are angry simply because they can be. White men suffer absolutely no consequences from being angry. There is no stigma. No stereotype. Anger empowers white men.

Yeah, let’s have your body hijacked for over a year (over if you’re going to have your boobs nibbled on) with your nutrients leeched from your bones and your organs rearranged like a shitty game of Operation so that you could go through what can be hours of labor as your bones shift and your muscles stretch to the…

““’That’s why they have babies, so they can keep on getting all of the free stuff’,” Carroll said the cashier told her.”

Nothing relaxes me more than wondering if the person between me and the door will suddenly lunge in my direction! It’s so soothing, I’m thinking of starting a spa called WHAT’S THAT BEHIND YOU, which features enormous, grumpy tigers and pumas and lots of sudden, sharp noises, with staff on hand to out of nowhere start…

It just reaffirms that their true priority is white male supremacy and everything that encompasses, whether it’s the subjugation of women and people of color, complete dominance in business and government, and consuming the planet’s resources to assist their efforts at doing those things. Religion is the cover story.…

I read the paper a long time ago and am going on memory. However, I recall that they got their somewhat surprising estimate that police were no more likely to shoot Black people than White people (possibly less likely; again it was a long time ago) by controlling for the behavior of the suspect, the idea being to…

Economists very frequently publish results before going through the peer review process. A lot of those papers end up being peer reviewed and published, others don’t. Economists are also somewhat notorious for moving into other areas without a deep understanding of the issues involved, throwing one of their preferred…

The field that I know best is history. that said, most of the social sciences and humanities fields operate in a fairly similar manner. I have never heard of this person or his work. I generally don’t read studies that rely so heavily on mathematical and statistical modeling (though I do read a bunch of economic…

It used to, but since the turn of the millennium, as federal and state education funding was slashed by Republicans, colleges and universities have increasingly turned to a “business-first” model, hiring more administration and running academia in a for-profit manner. What happens then, is that what’s coming in ($$$)…

I said this some where else but his theory is proven correct by the total lack of violence towards women who are involved in long term and or married relationships. Yep, he nailed that one.

It’s just enough to drive a modern person mad to listen to these incels from the internet area ensconced in their comfortable secure lives complaining about the fact that they’re discriminated against because they don’t have enough sex. It’s like, Jesus get a hobby. For Christ’s sake, you — you — ”

I know there are always Reasons but it’s funny how it always ends up with the woman changing her name to her husband’s. This isn’t meant as a personal attack, I just do think that there are a lot of ways that society and relationships subconsciously influence women’s decisions and push them to stick with the…

1) Three months of postpartum support

What can he say except “You’re welcome?”
