Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetApparently I struck a nerve. I will concede that my first sentence could have been worded more clearly, however, judging by the tone of your reply, you got the gist of my complaint.
Here are some figures on the number of female full professors in the U.S. http://cra.org/info/taulbee/women.html 11 percent women as full professors IS sickening. Compare that to the 19 percent of female Computer Science / Computer Engineering degrees awarded, and you will start to see my point.
Women are the underrepresented majority in the U.S. Until women are at LEAST 51 percent in key positions of power, I will continue to upset white men. (It's almost always white men who get the most upset when I point out the gender disparity. Why wouldn't they be upset? They are the ones who will be losing the most power in the new structure.)
The stuff about old boys club and part of the solution? Whatever. I am not trying to build a community or make friends. I am simply pointing out sexism when I see it. Is that negative? Fine.
Obviously the Disqus boys hire based on gender, otherwise there wouldn't be all guys. I'm simply saying, "Hire some of the other gender."

Why should we completely ignore a thought leader just because s/he is not 100 percent correct? We must take her/him in context.
This post exposes the absolutist thinking that cripples so many of the frequenters of this blog.
Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | Tweet@DrK One can conclude that Obama is not a feminist from an almost infinite number of things that he has done, Summers appointment is just one of the more egregious actions he has taken. Why can't women's rights be a part of your "contentious political landscape?" Do you have any idea the number of women in the three branches of Federal government? 17 percent in Congress, 1.8 percent in the Supreme Court and 0 percent in the Executive. These numbers are the most important issue facing the U.S.
I won't grant Obama any political latitude. He works for me, and he is failing miserably.

Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetOkay, as a feminist man, I can say that I would never leave my female partner alone in her time of need. I want to give readers of this blog a little hope because there are men out there working to support feminist women in their quest for power.
That said, I agree that most men, given the chance will bail at the first sign of weakness. The solution? Use them for what you need and kill them in their sleep when you get bored with them. ;)
Seriously though, either a man self-identifies as a supporter of women's rights or he is the enemy. We don't have time to convince everyone to act right.
Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetYeah... apparently love and vision gets nothing. It's finger pointing and name calling that really gets readers. Nice photo though!
Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetHmmm. Certainly seems like a boy's club to me. Why not hire some women and prove that you aren't sexist.?
Women are the underrepresented majority in the U.S.
The ratio of full professors in computer science the U.S. versus the number of women Ph.D. graduates in computer science is sickening. Look at the numbers yourself.
You can be part of the solution.
Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | Tweet“The point is not blame, insult, or injury. It’s figuring out what happened and how to move forward.”
No, the point is to blame anyone who is opposed to individual rights.
Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetSo let me get this straight. What you are arguing is that these black voters, who just voted to destroy individual rights, should not be held accountable for their actions, because they are black?
Seriously? That’s what is sounds like to me.
You contend that these voters were duped by advertising into accidentally taking away my liberty?
Then, to add insult to injury, you put the blame back onto the LGBT community for not recruiting enough minorities to their cause. So, there is no accountability unless you are white. If you were black or latino, you had no responsibility to volunteer. Some white person from the LGBT community should have shown up at your door and forcibly taken you to the headquarters? Give me a break. I volunteer for this cause because I am well aware of it and believe in individual rights. What person in California isn’t aware of the issue? They would have to be living under a rock.
Your argument is irrational and also incredibly poorly stated. The link where you suggested Unapologetic Feminist not say mean things deserves a re-read.
This is exactly the hetero-normative, androcentric, christian family values that Obama stands for. It is not too soon for me to say, I told you so.
When people take away individual rights, I will fight them. No matter who they are. To give them a pass because of their race is wrong.
Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetReligious freaks win again. Fucking christian family values.
Those who do not support individual rights are in direct violation of the Constitution.
This is an act of war against an oppressed minority and we will fight these hateful Abrahamic tyrants.

Would that be the same army that has occupied Iraq? (I assume you are against that, as am I.) And the very same police that tase people who ask the wrong questions and shoot people in the back while they are running away?
Or maybe the IRS goons who will kick in your door to collect your portion of the BAILOUT BILL.
We live in a fascist state Jimmy.
You need to go get yourself a gun right now.

Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetWhat I also find upsetting is this HATE of wealthy people. A vicious anger at anyone who spends money on herself. Most people who have money got it by working hard and if they want to spend every last cent on making themselves feel good then more power to them.
You are so right about Palin having to look a certain way. If she didn't she would never get anywhere in politics. People should have a look at the total amount of money spent to get elected as president and realize that Palin's makeup artist is a drop in the bucket. Besides, she's putting people to work.
I like to look good too and if could blow thousands of dollars a week to do it I would! I'm worth it and so is Palin.
These hateful Obama lovers are scary.
