I don't trust y'all driving on the road, why the hell would I trust y'all piloting a plane with me in it

But that's a separate conversation.

I was pissed bc I sat in on the interviews. One of the major requirements was to have worked there for a year in a very specific area in order to be promoted to the position. Instead of hiring those who were qualified, they took newly hired women to take a role over men who were more qualified and had been there longer. All of this was because our boss at the time was pushed to put more women in the position.


This is typical of the feminine imperative. Demand access to areas with respect to which they are not qualified. Look at what's happening in the tech world. Women demanding to be granted access to staff and boards of tech companies instead of earning it. Here's an idea for the feminists. Start your own company and do with it as you will.

And women shouldn't be pilots

kind of have some experience in this area, women do not make good pilots, they can function well as part of a crew when things are going smoothly, but not good as Captain or aircraft commander, when tough, timely decisions need to be made

They should! If they are truly qualified and can do the job, they should!

You are literally too far off from the great conversation that was happening in this thread to even bother.



I've never seen someone miss a point so badly in my life.



That's no way for a lady to talk to a man in public.

Ironically, many would not be allowed due to the laws that their sisters (foremothers? forepeople?) before them worked to implement.

And Google is sexist btw, because foremothers and forepeople are underlined as a misspelling and forefathers is not (to their credit, foreperson is not either).

I didn't say your friend wasn't capable of giving me a bag of peanuts and half a can of coke. I'm just saying the airlines would be a more enjoyable experience for all if they had attractive women as stewardesses as opposed to gay dudes.



I can't remember, was it Hooters that tried to get an airline off the ground with hot flight attendants as the rule? it used to be that beautiful flight attendants were part of advertising campaigns for major airlines (I think I saw an ad campaign in SE Asia still using this technique 10 years ago). But there aren't enough men who will pay a premium to fly titty airlines instead of Southwest so this stuff seems to have disappeared over time.

After scanning the list, I was half-expecting this:

36. Share her clothes. Women have to wear oppressive clothes that restrict the freedom of movement. So wear her pantyhose and heels, cross your legs, and shove a tampon up your butt. This will help you develop empathy for how she dresses.

Also, custody courts are not slanted toward women, they are slanted toward the primary caregiver in a marriage. In cases where the woman works and the man is a stay at home dad, the courts are equally slanted in favor of the man in that situation.

that's not it at all, there were always weight/appearance criteria, and those who didn't maintain them were given the boot, all of sudden, that's just too much to ask of them to take care of themselves, and show up for work in a presentable manner, so let's sue, because that's discrimination, guess what, no more standards

I lost a job one time I had been at for over 5 years.

I met all the qualifications (college education, experience, manufacturing knowledge, & above average evals) except for one thing I wasn't a minority.

This company's bonus structure was based on many factors but one of them was that salaried personnel had to be 33% minority.

When they decided to shutdown a shift I got the short end of the stick because my plant manager would have lost his $20000 bonus if he had kept me over the other supervisor in my area ( no education, below average evals). Now when I make hiring decisions at my job I take into consideration this when hiring.

Am I wrong? Yes. Can it be proved? No. Will I continue? Yes based on what has happened to me over 15 years.

Singapore.

Was the cause of a ton of controversy from Singapore women.

Their traditional uniform is a traditional Asian dress. They pick unrealistic Asian women who have altered their appearance via surgeries to be perfect and appeal to the white man's Asian-girl-fetish.

I'm not a Singapore woman, so I don't have any idea what's true and what's not, but I read a huge amount of material on it for school.

Women still earn about 77% as much as men. If you are in a position where you are financially able to do so, consider donating a symbolic 23% of your income to social justice-oriented causes. If 23% sounds like a lot to you, that’s because it is a lot and it’s also a lot for women who don’t have a choice whether to forfeit this amount or not.


No one should support feminist as long as the keep trotting this bullshite out.

Um, actually a lot of Asian women are really freaked out by Asian fetishism.

Asian friends have mentioned guys trying to sleep with them to knock "fricking an Asian girl" off their bucket list.
