They're already trying to do it. I work for a state agency, and a teabagger in our fucking legislature suggested recently that state employees are similar to welfare recipients because we live off the government (never mind that we are WORKING for the government every day) and that the legislature should be able to…

Sure. You can throw that statistic that says more often than not it is male dominated, but that doesn't diminish the fact that women fit these roles, as well.

False equivalence, try again.

Why do so many women like you hate other women so much?

SO in closing, you're just not great around the kitchen.

Or, you know, Doctors/Nurses *could* be taking 5 minutes to ask the child: "Do you feel safe at home? Does anyone ever hurt you?" - potentially allowing that child to speak up about abuse they may be experiencing, but are afraid to tell their parents about (or can't).

No offense to the author but this is one of those times where I'm like, "Well hell if they'll give you a book deal for that..."

I know you didn't SAY the struggles of the LGBT community weren't a big deal, I said your words repeatedly minimize the struggles of LGBT people, acting like it's no big deal when it is.

Right off the bat, you asked is this still such an issue? OF COURSE it is. That's why this person is asking, because people can get…

Again, we haven't achieved equality, so there is no point in pretending like it exists. I have a problem with how your words repeatedly minimize the struggles of LGBT people, acting like it's no big deal when it is. And you don't seem to care to understand. You have said a lot more than just wishing the world…

Oh...I bet you're one of those people who says they don't see race either, right?

Sue them for what? It's perfectly legal in 29 states to fire me because I am gay. They can write that word-for-word on the discharge papers, if they want, and I would have no standing for a wrongful termination suit.

Women who hover should be thrown into a giant vat of piss.

What is this comment? How is what she said anti-capitalistic? I have personally lamented being a brown girl trying to find foundation dark enough. Even some major retailers / brands don't sell suitable colors.

Britney I don't get but I swear this is Keira's side gig. They even sound alike.

There have been instances of businesses not wanting black dollars like Timberland and Cristal. Very popular brands in the "urban" segment but not appreciative of those dollars and basically cut off their nose to spite their face by saying so. So, the fact that these stores aren't carrying darker shades may not simply…

If you took the time to actually read her comment she actually makes the capitalistic argument. She's saying that the products for darker-skinned women get pulled too quickly from the shelves to make the retailer money. If the products were on the shelves longer, darker-skinned women would have time to find them,…

Are you talking about male civilians who are killed in war? Because soldiers are not victims. The job of a soldier is to be willing to die, that's why soldiers are considered brave because they knowingly accept the great risks that are inherent in their profession.

Boy, wouldn't it be awful to have a president who believed that everyone deserves legal representation, regardless of the crime they are charged with? Like you know, what is considered someone's constitutional rights? I mean, fuck, you know, I think it's ridiculous to give shit someone actually doing their job.

I actually don't own a pit. I own a jackchi.

Part of good kitchen habits is teaching them that washing their hands before food prep is not optional. Adults are just as likely to have gross stuff on their hands as kids if only from handling money, touching doorknobs, etc.
