Really dude? That's the best crack on women you could come up with. Post that shit on reddit if you have to, but this really isn't the place. We're trying to get something accomplished here. And if you're going to keep posting shit like that at least make it funny...

Dtj, it's not your place to declare who can post what and where.

And Rodehard's point is a valid one: women working the same jobs as men are paid less, even though they may have strong social skills. Do you think that is fair to your mother or sister? Will that be fair to your daughter?

And if you don't like what this thread accomplishes, you can move on and create one that is actually of interest to you.

Actually women make about 93-95% of what men make on the hour (in the U.S.). Source: http://www.consad.com/content/report...l%20Report.pdf

Here are some quotes from the beginning:

"However, despite these gains the raw wage gap continues to be used in misleading ways to advance public policy agendas without fully explaining the reasons behind the gap. The purpose of this report is to identify the reasons that explain the wage gap in order to more fully inform policymakers and the public."

"There are observable differences in the attributes of men and women that account for most of the wage gap. Statistical analysis that includes those variables has produced results that collectively account for between 65.1 and 76.4 percent of a raw gender wage gap of 20.4 percent, and thereby leave an adjusted gender wage gap that is between 4.8 and 7.1 percent. These variables include:"


So IN REALITY, women make almost exactly the same amount of money as a man for the same amount of work.

Let's look at this in hard numbers, weekly earnings by occupation, rather than statistics:
http://www.aflcio.org/issues/jobseco...Occupation.cfm

As you can see, the difference in weekly pay is substantial. Since that time, the gender gap in pay has lessened, unfortunately because men's pay has gone DOWN, due to the economy. :/
http://www.usatoday.com/money/workpl...age-gaps_N.htm

There are, however, still some persisting problems with regard to gender equity in the workplace.
http://www.newsweek.com/2010/03/08/w...ender-gap.html

I am not implying that anyone is entitled to anything here, but again, this issue can affect every working woman in your own families too, and thus, your family as a whole. It makes a difference for everyone, including your little brothers and nephews, etc.

If there is less for women, there is less for those who depend on them.

In my experience I have observed the following.

Girls will always be the best pickup artists around.In an evolutionary construct based on men acquiring resources(be they sticks and caves or iPods and mortgages)and women instinctually choosing a man with the most of those resources in the social environment they're in,they literally have to be.Failure to socially grade and percieve men for pickup targets as a female equals a sort of evolutionary failure akin to a man comitting to an ugly woman.

For a man ,he did not need the skills of PUA until women were freed from the constructs of marriage and rigid systems of marriage and courting.Under those old orders a man needed only be materially successful and socially favored to be guaranteed a decent woman.The drawback was that the HBs didn't have much choice in men under the old marriage contracts pre-feminism.

Today the women CAN choose,and for better or worse they expect their men to be more socially and emotionally skilled than them.No HB will respect a man they feel is inferior in 'game' than they are;which is a big reason why we all here can get laid on command,and why 15 year old girls have game.Put simply a woman realizes the import of 'pickup',whereas a guy won't realize that until his girlfriend fucks an asshole like me and can't compute why .;-)

Happy Sarging.

But yeah, women are ahead of men when it comes to social behavior. Or maybe she just had read The Game (for example), and had absorbed a few tricks from there. I know several girls who've read it, afterall, it's a bestseller.

Women are not ahead of men in the social criteria, they simply work different. Men, simply put, are like toasters. They see what they like and PING it's go time. Women, are like violins, they have to beautifully played and the performer must be on his A-game in order for her to be aroused.

Women get props in the business world for being able to read body language, listen and communicate the way they feel, but in the real world, how many women do you see as presidents or CEO's of companies? The aggression a man can bring is what gets the job done. There's a book entitled "seducing the boys club" by Nina Diesesa and in it she explains how she managed to get to the top of a huge marketing firm and to be frank it wasn't by communicating what she felt and enacting a good listener.
