I know right, it's so people don't have to ask, "are these seats open." I mean, as long as someone will actually sit in them, it makes no difference whether they are not phsically present at that moment, the seat ain't open.
Yes, anyone can quit their job, but if there is a greater risk that pregnant women will not return to their jobs, based on aggregate figures, is that still discrimination—or is it just pat of the risk assessment?
Seems there needs to be an important distinction made between carrying out valid risk assessments for things like loans, and outright discrimination.
Little sister, or crazy ex? Or maybe little sister who's a psycho ex in training?
Exactly, there's an assumption that men care only about their careers, and that fathering just isn't as important. Seems Lauer understands that at some level, but then his own internal blinders kick in and he doesn't see the role that the media and he personally has played in making it more of a gendered issue.
Damn, you said the same thing I did, only better, and a few minutes sooner!
He's right for the wrong reason, and ignoring the fact that he's constributing to the very problem he's desperately trying to dismiss.
If you speak to a strange woman you obviously believe you're entitled to her tine and her body., cuz rules.
Yet another argument in favor of a single payer system. My employer should not be a middle man who also gets a say on the specific treatments my health care provider is giving me on the basis of his/her own personal beliefs.
Agree, totally creepy. Plus, what about when the person talks about the stuff they do while you're on a date. Do you pretend you don't already know that stuff about them, geting things off to a bad, dishonest start, or do you admit you already saw the stuff they're telling you and just come off as a creep.
Are those your BFFs? You have so much in common! Like hatred, and finding excuses for abuse. Okay, maybe that's all, but it's a good start!
It's just the decent thing to do, women have enough shit to put up with. And being preoccupied or giving the appearence of being preoccupied is probably much better than calling out to her "hey miss, don't worry, I'm not going to assault you, and you're probably safer that I'm around anyway in case someone bad does…
Hmm..so maybe it was the latter, but I'm still not ruling anything out!
I'm genuinely curious. Are you an MRA troll trying to make feminists look bad? Or are you really an unhinged lunatic who doesn't really how badly you're hurting your own cause?
No, it's because men live on a diet of evil sauce and are just constantly plotting how to assault people while women only beat the shit out of people with the very best of intentions.
Not to mention he's a man, so he can't do anyting back to defend himself or else that's an escalation.
I knew she wouldn't disappoint!
I'm a little torn on that issue. I mean, I completely understand it's very condescending for men to tell women, if they don't want to be assaulted by men, here are the things they should do. I can't see myself doing that personally, although I have and will do things like pay for cabs for drunken women to get home…
