I disagree. The questions we consider scientifically interesting are inherently influenced by our societal values and our personal biases.

My point still stands, though: this piece is ridiculous.

does it really matter? here is how a question about abortion would go

Yes but is it actually funny or trying to hard? I want to see it immediately but my husband doesn't even know who Deadpool is and I have no idea how to explain it.

What are they most afraid of? A treadmill.

Except she is telling you (and other women here discussed this same experience) that she didn’t take the flexible-hours position, didn’t take time off for kids, or any of the other explanations you are going for, and they are still experiencing this sexism. I have seen really talented women passed over by less…

I feel like a lot of Bernie supporters are very young (college students mostly) and perhaps are new to the political process. And it shows. Not that I have anything against young people getting involved, it’s just that I don’t need to be lectured by someone half my age about how politics or elections work.

First of all, I did just read the article and I didn’t listen to the podcast (though I plan to. ) I’ve seen Goldin used to support both the “pay gap exists” and the “pay gap doesn’t exist” sides. So I’m interested to hear what she says in her own words

But has he ever fought them effectively? I like Bernie on paper, but I can’t and won’t vote for anyone who has few concrete ideas about how to actually pass the programs he’s promising. His promise of a political revolution is as naive and empty as Barack Obama’s promise to end partisanship and bridge the political…

I tried to engage with you in a polite way making the assumption that you were not a troll. I’m not going to dismiss the comment that you have made because it is a perfect example of what soft sexism is. Thank you for devaluing my lived experience and the lived experience of most of the women I know.

Undecided voters in the general, perhaps, but not the primaries, which is what OP is talking about. They haven’t decided between Clinton and Sanders. I haven’t either, and it has nothing do do with who I’d rather have a beer with. I like both candidates, it’s a tough choice.

I’m undecided. I am diligent in keeping informed in local and national politics, and am actively involved in politics and advocacy in my community. I am also writing a book on the relevance of political philosophy for Americans “on the street,”so I do a lot of research daily (it’s a strange hobby). Not all undecided…

I don’t think it’s hard at all to be undecided between Bernie & Hillary. For instance, if you’ve been a fan of Bernie for many, many years and have wanted an opportunity to vote for him, but now find yourself hesitant to make what would feel like a tacit endorsement of the hyperbolic and/or sexist smears his followers…

Between some people on Gawker and a few choice apples on my Facebook feed, I have to say that this page and these threads are making me want to cry with relief becuase I have been feeling like there’s something wrong with me for not feeling the Bern, and having been called a shit ton of stupid names for simply…

It’s one of those things where it’s ok for guys to call each other “bro” but when women do it... Watch out.

Here we see the elusive BernieBro in its natural habitat. Notice how there’s no self awareness in his statements or self reflection upon reading this article. A beautiful specimen indeed.

well thanks for the sweeping generalizations about me and the intelligence of every undecided voter out there that you have of course met and assessed. I don’t even know how to address your condescending fuckery so I’m not going to try....

THIS!!!!!!!!! as an undecided voter, Bernie’s rabid fans have done a hell of a job of alienating the shit out of me. Calling anyone that won’t condemn Hillary as the antichrist a cunt, tracking my Instagram page down to troll me about the greatness of Bernie is not winning me over. I asked one of these crazies if…

That’s delusional. And that’s exactly where a “no war but the class war” ideology will get us. Without explicitly working to challenge systemic sexism and racism economic equality alone is not a fix-all. So no wonder it feels like Bernie and Donald supporters both have a lot in common: white men who feel economically…

I have done Bernie Sanders the favor of hiding any Bernie Bros in my facebook or twitter so that I can make reasonable decisions about the election without feeling like I want to punch Bernie supporters* straight in the taint.
