Coddling, Ugh... Options

[*CrackedRearView*]

I was the center of a very heated debate in my Lit class today...

We were reading about the advancement of women via The Norton Reader...and our instructor asked us a critical thinking question, I can't remember it now, but it sparked the debate.

A propos, I was pitted against the most liberal person I know, Courtney Brown, and she despises the fact that I'm the most conservative guy in the class.

So, long story short -- she goes off on a spiel about how women still don't get paid as much as men in the working world, I reply with the fact that over half of all wall street CEO's are now women, she returns with "It's only fair to give the qualified women the jobs."

It disgusts me...why should we have to coddle different races/genders now?

It happened, it's done, move on.

She said something along the lines of "Well, the guy's have had the stage for thousands of years, it's our turn now."

Actually sweetheart, I've only been here for 17. It's not mine nor any of my colleagues goddamn problems.

if you had any business sense at all you would have to choose the man. Even if the woman is more qualified in some small way she still takes a negative score. Women are emotional by nature and are not the best co-workers because logic is like a second language. not to mention morale is lower for fear of a sexual harassment suit. female employees are just not good business. Now because of feminism women are more forward with what they think and feel and are backed by the courts because hiring a man over a woman is discrimination.

Men are more likely to engage in workplace violence... that breaks that out.

Pregnancy is the ONLY reason women are at a disadvantage to men in the business wordl.
