Everyone seems to think that saying “I’m voting for Clinton because she’s a woman” really means “I’m *only* voting for Clinton because she’s a woman, and I obviously just haven’t *researched* enough and only vote on genitalia”

I’m supporting Clinton because I think she’ll be a better general election candidate than Sanders and I think she’ll be a better president too. However I am also supporting her because she’s a woman. And everytime I see any sort of criticism of that line of thinking it just reinforces my belief that we have to…

Men are not being asked to defend their voting positions as feminists, and so neither should we.

...And yet, she has not yet hit the goldmine of him actually giving a crap about her.

So the precedent for the rest of us who get stalked and don’t have indefatiguable legal and financial resources is... oh right, that the American legal system couldn’t give a fuck. Why don’t they just stamp “inferior rights” on females’ birth certificates or something?

In plain English, it would read, “Holtzclaw maintains his belief in his innocence with the same unrelenting energy he had when pursuing his NFL dreams, but it appears that recovery is only deserved by his victims.”

“Recovery appears to be something deserved only by the victims.”

This is Jeff Arnold’s point. Now you see why he attempted to hide it in a pile of bs?

The problem is the boomers who made this think the only things that ever mattered were white guy things from the 60s and 70s.

Another show about white men doing white men things in the past, I think even white men are tired of watching this, but Hollywood will tell you “No you aren’t, because stories about women, blacks, gays, Latinos make no money...so here is another George Clooney movie that will make no money or here is another Matthew…

Only Donald Trump would “evolve” on abortion based on the experience of a dude.

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

The fact that we do build complex societies and are gifted with reason does not erase the fact that we are animals who did not always have pursuits beyond survival and procreation.

Yeah, but evolution is fueled by random mutation. As long as living past menopause doesn’t significantly hurt genetic fitness, there doesn’t have to be an actual benefit.

Oh god. I’ll never forget “abortion day.” I was literally the only pregnant person in a room of 100 or so and I’m pretty sure a bunch of my male classmates piped up explaining things about pregnancy and how it’s really no big deal.

I’m sure that’s part of it. In my experience, women are less likely to speak up because we feel like we have to be 100% correct about everything, and better and smarter than the guys. I’m sure it’s all in my head, but it can feel like if a guy screws up, he just made a mistake. If a woman does, it’s because women…

Probably because law school is all the assholes you knew in undergrad, all in one place.

100% sure that this kind of bias will not stop dudes from letting the woman in their study groups do all of the work.

My takeaway is that women should be doing all hiring, promoting and workplace evaluations? I choose to see it as a silver lining that their gender bias is approximately zero; I was expecting them to be similarly biased against women, but less so.

“Something under the conscious is going on,” Grunspan said. “For 18 years, these [young men] have been socialized to have this bias.”
