Call me crazy, but if you don’t trust someone, you probably shouldn’t have sex with them at all. You probably also shouldn’t be in a relationship with them (unless you’re regularly in the habit of having bareback sex with one-night stands?)

I mean, that’s not even moralizing. That’s just looking after your physical and…

...through your seminal fluid. No, this doesn’t cure all STDs for all time. But it is kind of a big deal for the prevention it does afford.

Genuine question, why do you write shit like this? Is it funny to you? And for the last fucking time, the male participants were not “being crybabies.”

Does Atlanta need cornerbacks? If so, I would advise them to look elsewhere given Georgia’s history with Shermans.

Seahawks just have anti-trust against Sherman.

And for just a second, she was queen. All of her troubles forgotten. Life felt better, filled with purpose. No matter that soon she would be walking out of that stadium and back into the cold reality of living in Pittsburgh, she would forever have this moment. The girls at the end of the Heinz Cocktail Sauce…

Ugh I had the perfect Diablo 3 getup for this 3 days ago. Now you have to deal with this.

I got you fam, someone I came across in the tower

Not only did you fail to read the article, you failed to read your own quoted link.

It is very frustrating that, before we can even address the problem, we have to fight to prove it exists, then fight off distractions like this.

Because those employers don’t necessarily think “oh, this is a woman, I can pay her less.” It’s not that explicit. Men continue to get hired at higher wages for the same reason they are given higher wages in the first place: Men are viewed as more valuable to a company, due to long standing biases that an employer…

Here’s an easy solution - read the flippin’ article and realize that even in technical fields, when controlling for education and experience, women are paid less.

the major disconnect seems to be that wage gap deniers simplify the issue, then blame equal pay supporters for simplifying the issue

“Here is an easy solution” that does nothing to deal with the gap when adjusted for degrees.
I know a lot of men are getting pissy in these comments about being told they’re mansplaining things, but your comment is a perfect example of what so many people are sick of hearing:
-You say that an issue that has been going…

I worked as a nurse for ten years. It was infuriatingly known that any dude that became a nurse not only would get more cash, because “We need stronger people on the floor to lift, so he’s worth the extra amount”, but they would be fast tracked to administrative positions that were paid more.

Things that are keeping me alive today

- The little soul patch in the mansplaining icon

Yep, women just aren’t trying hard enough. You nailed it.

Assume that negotiating for a higher salary is the gender-defined difference. In that situation, why is such negotiating even allowed? If it’s all about negotiation and not about job qualification, then the people getting rewarded are not being rewarded for their actual merits related to the job, are they?

Remember, these numbers are for people in the same positions and at the same education and experience level. These statistics have been controlled for, the only defining characteristic is gender.

-“You can’t mansplain away the wage gap”
-First two comments “Hold my beer”

Both points agree there still is a gap, so I guess that’s progress. However, I feel both are saying that it is the women’s fault. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Regarding Freddie’s point about parenting: Maybe you’re right. There still is a gap.…
