Global Beet go boinga boinga boinga!

I believe that if a brilliant black woman passed the Google test and knew her shit, Google would be psyched to have her. Same with Twitter. Actually- I know so.

Yeah, but if you look at the chart in the article that displayed all of the other tech companies, there are barely any black people in any of them.

If Twitter has knowingly discouraged black women from applying or unfairly rejected qualified black women, management is indeed racist. However, I wonder if the culprit is our educational system, not these particular companies.

25% of tech is Asian. Asians, including South Asians, are over represented in tech, so boiling it down to simple racism is an oversimplification. Do you think Google and Twitter are rejecting hundreds of black candidates who pass their very, very difficult tests? If so, they need to change. However, if they aren’t,…

I wonder how many black woman have applied to work at Twitter. Meaning, has Twitter rejected hundreds of qualified black women on purpose and hired only Asian and white instead, or have there been very few qualified black women applicants?

It really isn’t, but the article makes it appear to be so. The reality is that there are millions of couples of equal age living perfectly happy lives.

We grow up.

No- my wife is 7 years younger and we met online. It’s completely within a non-creepy range. All of her friends are interested in meeting my friends who are 7 years older. No big deal.

We don’t just care about looks. We care about looks, personality, emotional chemistry, affection, etc. My wife’s face attracted me, but her heart made me fall in love. Even a conventionally “unattractive” woman can find a guy who will love her looks and her personality.

They don’t care. It’s like hunting. Even if you’re not going to bag a 10 point buck at the end of the day, you don’t care. the fun is in the hunt. You know you’ll ALWAYS have a restaurant waiting for you.

It shouldn’t. Many of the posters are taking this way too literally and out of context. Most of us guys wind up settling down and marrying women somewhat close to our ages.

It really isn’t. Most guys wind up marrying women who are close to their age, give or take. I dated younger women for years until I realized that it wasn’t really working for me, so I met my wife, who’s only 7 years younger. I had to get to a point where I didn’t want someone a lot younger, where I really needed a…

With the Internet there’s no such thing as reality. I met my wife online and she’s only 7 years younger than me. But, most of the guys I know just look at a photo and click because it’s so damned easy. No more complicated than that. They truly don’t think about what they’re looking for until they get to a point where…

They’re not even analyzing it that intensely. They look at a photo, like it, and click. It’s a primal, biological thing. Reason and rationality have absolutely nothing to do with it.

I thought only guys over 45 even knew who Green Day was.

No, he was just black, so they would have treated him worse.

There’s actually far less violence in the US now than at anytime in the past half century. However, you wouldn’t know it due to the speed of reporting. Not faulting reporters in any way- they’re doing their job- but some perspective is always nice. Violence continues to drop every year at a pretty good clip.

I just love the over the top, knee jerk personal attacks you’re receiving for voicing a very reasonable and innocuous perspective. I wondered if the woman was actually afraid there was going to be a violent confrontation and did all she could to keep these two safe. Then again, many of these posters have never been to…

That’s completely stupid. How about locking up violent criminals for more time and releasing all non violent drug offenders.
