A federal survey of about 9,000 young men and women born during the years 1980 to 1984 shows a big disparity when it comes to higher education, with women a third more likely to have received a bachelor's degree by age 27. http://www.bls.gov/news.release/nlsyth.nr0.htm Oh wait..
bmd... Are you starting to see how the D&D forum works? You point out a salient fact, and libs flock to the thread to heap ridicule and dismiss it as irrelevant. They will NEVER admit that their positions are absurd. I've pretty much given up trying to educate them. This board has enough hardcore leftists (who will neaver realize themselves as such) it makes it pointless.
Indeed. And you also have another logic chain, which says that liberals down here are some monolithic herd who immediately gang up on the poor, downtrodden "conservative" posters whenever they say anything about, well, anything. That the liberal members here disagree with each other about the issues and topics of the day as much as agree (which is clear in the "Russian Expansionism" thread started by Judo, just as one example) makes no difference. We "gang up" on the poor "conservatives" and can be completely unaware that we are doing so. Yeah, right.
What are you even talking about? Why don't you tease out the logic of what is probably going to be the inevitably tortured and stupid argument you are trying to make, before you start whining about it being deconstructed. Seriously, make an effort if you want to throw a pity party. Earn it.
Women are a third more likely to get a bachelor's degree than men. Just imagine how many more degrees women would be earning if there wasn't a war on women.
If your name is Francis, Alex, Terry, Chris, or Marion, maybe you could apply for a student loan and skip the gender question to take your chances that they will consider you female and give you preference. It seems you could probably benefit from the additional educational opportunities.
Who should I blame as a male for the big gap in degrees between men and women? Do I blame women? I'm new to this whole oppression thing.
Considering men make more than women. There are more men in power than women. There are more male CEO's than women. There are more male Senators than women. More male governors than women. And on and on and on. Yeah, blame yourself.
1. Men do not make more than women for the same exact position/hours/duties, etc. They make the same. 2. There are less women who pursue careers that lead to positions of power, and less women that desire stressful positions of power that require long hours. 3. CEO's are generally much older. They could be 60 years old. Not a lot of women got advanced business degrees in the 1970's that would make them qualified candidates for CEO positions today. 4. Senators are voted on. Considering there are more women than men in this country, nobody is stopping women from getting elected. 5. Governors.. same as #4.
