There’s an oathpreppers and and oathkeepers but no oathcookers? Who’s cooking white people’s oats?

Terry Crews 2020.
Oof he’s bringing out the dictionary now.
Because they’re nice people; Jim and Pam are jerks.
Women talking about shit that is not Todd’s pain, apparently.
He did not argue that women are the moral superiors of men, but I will, just as I will argue that Black and Native folk are the moral superiors of white folk in the various european colonies. At the very least, their arguments carry the moral superiority of historicity. Women have been historically and horrifically…
Been trying to write a piece on this since the weekend when I heard Charlamagne call himself Donkey of the Day for not knowing about rape culture until recently.
Women are people. They are more than half of the people. Failure to recognize women as people means that more than half of humanity is hobbled, just off the bat. We as a species spend enormous amounts of energy to literally hold ourselves back.
Also: if you’ve got “that one guy” in your social circle whom you know women tend to find creepy/sketchy/rapey, maybe stop trying to bug us into “giving him a chance” as a date or friend, stop giving him a pass all the time for and start talking to HIM about the way he acts.
These folks should have access to friends and romantic partners and sex too, just like other sensible human beings
I’m not in agreement, here, but I am approving your comment so others can respond. Gender segregation is not the answer to our learning to live in a respectful, balanced democracy. No one is asking that people refrain from speaking of their social lives unless obviously sexual in nature. That which we need, in all…
Some women want men who are persistent, but not too persistent, but the limits for what is too persistent changes for each and every woman. Some women want men who are forward, but not too forward, and these limits change for each woman.
Oh fuck off. It is not a reasonable request to want a safe work environment free of harassment but also want the opportunity to advance. Never being in a meeting alone with a man would demolish my career, because I ONLY WORK WITH MEN. I will not accept that I just can’t do my dream career because the poor men just…
It would be nice if the only thing that mattered was the quality of your work. But after 30 years in the corporate world, I can tell you that’s almost never the case.
You should make sure you are never alone with men or children, either.
“in the end those are missed opportunities to collaborate, so they will pay for it over time”
Since forever, in all of them, because these fields are filled with people and people are social animals.
Jeez. Imagine living in that perpetual state of anxious fear that something might happen to you. Those poor, poor men.
To hear some of the dudes here and the world at large tell it, the fact that you and your coworker might have been attracted to each other but decided to keep a professional distance is the GREATEST TRAGEDY OF ALL TIME.
You wouldn’t have to be careful if you weren’t up to no good, men becoming Ned Flanders-like in their fluster, bewailing the Dawn of the Woman Unencumbered by Fear of Making a Scene, typing through self-righteous tears on their twit-twatter about “witch hunts” [sic] and “lynch mobs” [sic]. They see no contradiction in…
