Women are just as much entitled to an occupation as are men.

If they're single ~ Yes.

And if they're married, with their husband working, then certainly not if there are young married couples with neither of them being able to find work.

So I did the right thing in January by quitting my job?

Don't let the chauvinists browbeat you into submission, Frances. We are all entitled to equal employment, so it should be a choice as to whether or not you work for an employer or at home. It's not for women to accept responsibility for the failure of government to provide (something that even a drover's dog could do) in this big empty resource rich country, an economy that employs all those choosing to seek paid employment.

I tend to agree with this, there's no excuse for that bloated beurocracy called government not to fulfill this basic role. Australia has a relatively small population and an abundance of resources. There are no other reasons I can think of outside of corruption for this not to be the case. I think if we followed the money trail it would go back through insider networks as far back as you care to look.

It's our culture and the majority that decide who is the government. Which at a glance may make it look like we are doomed, because in both instances they're not exactly representational of intelligence. But the way out, and it's something that I use to maintain my theism, is that democracy allows for a minority party, by holding the balance of power, give to our intelligent side a significant amount of control. That is a party that held between 5 and 10% of the seats in the House of Reps can effectively give a new direction to a government. What I'm saying is that a new party representing effective intelligence can in theory be formed. And that's regardless of whether or not 'intelligence' represents a similar percentage as an effective value in society. That is because 'logic' being a force in itself can have a disproportionate effect. Confused? Well that's more to do with my lack of writing skills than it is to do with the simple logic involved.

Quote:

I'm interested to know to what degree that has something to do with the relative nature of reality. I think of people and institutions rather like props in the overall drama. There are these various players that manifest throughout the information history we can examine. But just like we are perfectly placed in space and time to exist and observe, these faceless groups could be just a complex part of that illusion.

We can't really separate the laws of physics from most any effect, including societies current direction (the X factor for example), because we are after all physical beings. But if there is any potential metaphysical process (and force) it must be 'logic'.

You are slow but you are getting there, Grasshopper.

Keep trying - you will leap ahead in your life studies once you drop the ideological rants.

Does the use of effective intelligence constitute an ideology? It looks to me like you are the one who's not taking things in. Patriotism, logically defined, cant really be labelled an ideology. And I'm not going to be learning much from you Grappler, unless it's by (poor) example. I mean chauvinism is self defeating, you chauvinists are a dying breed.

Gender Gap: Woman Only Gets 78% Of The Vote Man Gets

U.S. — The gender gap was once again proven to be real as a woman was only awarded 78% of the vote that a man got.

"There are gender gaps in pay, sports, and — now we know for certain — in politics," said Dr. Rip Scranton, a professor of gender studies and statistics at Harvard University. "What kind of sad world do we live in where a woman can only receive 78% of the votes that a man gets?"

Pundits offered a variety of explanations for the cold, hard reality of the gender gap. "It's probably because a female's vote is only worth 78% of a man's vote," said Lauren Bull, a lifelong resident of Seattle. "Plus, our donations to political parties are only worth 78% of a man's donations. This truly is the Handmaid's Tale."

Several news anchors pointed to the result as further evidence that Kamala Harris was a flawless candidate, weighed down only by her lack of a Y chromosome. "Clearly she was perfect, but if you can only receive 78% as many votes as a man, you'll never win. It's just math," said MSNBC's Rachel Maddow. "Ugh, men!"

At publishing time, experts warned the voting gender gap was a result of climate change.

End of.

Trump Beats Another Woman

U.S. — President Donald Trump has officially beaten yet another woman, remaining undefeated against women.

"Another woman, totally beaten," said Trump. "They keep bringing women and I keep beating them. Not like Doug! What a terrible guy. So sad, what he did in Paris. Keep a high guard tonight, Kamala!"

At publishing time, President Trump had announced that he had beaten a third woman, Timmy Walz.

After Trump's election victory on Tuesday, women on social media have expressed interest in following the "4 Nos" of the movement.

Quote:

4B (or "Four Nos") is a radical feminist movement which is purported to have originated in South Korea in 2019. Its proponents refuse to date men, get married, have sex with men, or have children.

Have a guess which one of the two groups will have plenty of love next 4 years and which won't?

Adam Seen Wearing 'THERE IS ONLY ONE GENDER' Shirt In Garden Of Eden

EDEN — According to reports, tensions escalated in the Garden this week after Adam, the world's only man, was seen wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the message "There is only one gender."

Sources believed the man was protesting several ongoing problems that had arisen in the wake of the Creator introducing a second gender.

"There's only one gender! That's what God intended!" said the man to several nearby animals. "Not two — just one! We have too many genders now! It's ridiculous! Just pure chaos! What's next? Three genders? Four? Where does it end? We can't keep going like this!"

Eyewitnesses said the sole member of the newly created second gender rolled her eyes at the statement. "The man would be a mess without me," she protested. "You should've seen the state of the Garden when I showed up. He was living under a log. Yeah, that's it. A log. And he was totally content just living under a log. It was disgusting. If it hadn't been for me, there wouldn't have been anyone to tell him to build this beautiful treehouse by hand. If you ask me, this world really needed a second gender."

"You're welcome, Adam!"

At publishing time, the man threw up his hands in frustration after the second gender told him to please pick up his dirty "There is only one gender" t-shirt off the ground.

... now I want you all to just join me... join hands.. and march quietly down to the Capitol building and let them all know that The Tides Have Changed, and that what they used to call 'chauvinists' are now the leading hands once again and are entitled to not only equal treatment all round, but to some afirmative action of their own to make up for the terrible harm done to a generation or two of noble men - the Handmen of this world....... I want you to tell them that thing... as we proceed together to release the swamp water out of their heads.... we all know that women only work 78% of the hours men work... and then in the comfy positions first and foremost.... so they've got nothing to complain about...... in Australia - not Austria as Joe said... Australia... one of our finest allies.... the latest figures show that men - per hour actually worked - are being short-changed 9.43% on the dollar compared to women... for that same hour....

Let's just make that all plain to those people in the Capitol building... we're gonna drain that swamp!!
