Regardless of what problems we do have in this world with sexism, racism, or any other kinds of -ism, I wish more people would realize that not all of their problems in life can be attributed to just one thing and that, at least in America, the number one determinant of your happiness and success is you.

Wouldn't our time better be focused on singling out news stories and trying to make them sound racist?

I mean, sexism is so 40 years ago.

The sad thing is this isn't going to get any better. Pope Benedict XVI is on fafnir-rage mode this week on the birth control issue, among other topics.

His quotes of the week.....

"The entire Christian community, must recover an appreciation of the virtue of chastity."

and "discover the value of chastity."

If I were the pope I would be more concerned with my priests who diddle little boys. Make sure they are chaste before you wanna judge other people.

it does work, just not when you let corporate money run things and let ignorant people have power.

Also this video makes me sad and less of a GC fan.

Do you live in a cave or something ? Sexism is so 40 years ago really ?
Since how long didn't you go out ? Sexism is everywhere, just make a comparation betwin a man & a woman doing exactly the same job, tell me why a woman get a lesser salary ?
Why womans have to suffer of not being taken in charge by the insurances when it come to this, viagra is taken onto somes insurances in somes countrys to gives the mens the possibility to last longer/to have an erection, isn't that the same if we go by the point of view of this other idiotic politician ?

Do you need somes others examples ? We're in 2012 & sexism is a major threat for woman still.
But anyway its america ^^ God bless America & their retardness on lots of life subject ^^

Are you really sure women make less than men?

http://www.swifteconomics.com/2009/09/21/lies-damned-lies-and-statistics-the-wage-gap/

Also contraception is also taken on SOME insurance policies, just like viagra I guess. I may also remind you Sandra Fluke is also lobbying for insurance to cover sex change operations. If that should be mandatory, I think lasik should be as well so I can be freed from needing any corrective lenses and live a more and happy/full life.

blah really a topic on this? there is a huge imbalance on either side of the scale if you ask me.

For one instance of example in my line of work, women are not held to the same physical standards even though they perform some of the same jobs, we get evaluated on our physical prowess semi annually and a failure to perform can be grounds for termination.

i serve in the navy, i'm fine and dandy with the whole equal opportunity ect. but not with a mismatch of standards.

another case in point is when it comes down to divorces, preferential custody of kids and honestly i'm just going to leave it at this, think people really ought to focus more on gender equality first on both sides the issue.

I got to "war on women" then stopped reading. Should have stopped when she put XX is an abnormality. Way is it always americans that use this "war on" crap no offense to the sane people over the pond. I dont see anyone killing women just because they have breasticles. Inb4 male killers there are also women that do the same. I see many women in high positions in companies or on a lot of money with male underlings i guess its just where you live.

Where I work, women have a better salary than men and they don't get fired when commiting any breach of their contract.

Also, if you work in any worldwide compagny, you will notice that nationality plays a big role in turning the tables and changing all the rules.

Knala gave some good examples. There are problems toward both sides.

What exactly is your point? This is about average treatment of a group of people, not "well these certain women have it better." This thread has a ***load of confirmation bias going on and you would all benefit from doing some research.
