    @PretyLittleThing “stupidity can be tolerated.” Stupidity should never be tolerated. But you refuse stupidity by offering a rebuttal not by blocking arguments stronger than your own.

    Exactly.

  • surendre1991:

    Rediculious.
    I thought this was a presidential election where their plans and knowledge mattered the most. And the media explicitly paid attention to gender and colour of skin.
    First ‘female’ president or first ‘black’ president?! That inherently is respectively sexist and racist. Should gender or skin colour matter if a president does its job well?

    a lot of people just enjoy being jerks and watching the outrage that ensues. I think also that some men are very upset at having to share the mountain of resources they’ve been so comfortably sitting on for so long!

    look at the shit that women in general have to put up with.

    the comment section is filled with comments by deranged imbeciles who write that “women are naturally handicapped because they aren’t fully realized human beings” and blame everything from war to rape on women.

    “Now fuck off”

    translation: i am an imbecilic cretin whose prevarications work for other cretins but are completely inadequate for people of normal or superior intelligence.

    @mrdamienholt

    thank you for being one honest and cool guy.

    @Ztiller1991

    stupidity can be tolerated. complete and utter imbecility, however, seems to offend people. therefore everything utterly imbecilic was voted down. it just so happens that you wrote most of it.

  • Ztiller1991:

    @PretyLittleThing Watch “The shocking truth behind the pay gap” here on youtube.

    Now fuck off.

    did you succeed in telling your “brain” from another part of your anatomy. impressive.

    men kept women blissfully uncompetitive since the beginning of time. women were not allowed to receive an education up until the 20th century. they were not able to contribute equally, because men wouldn’t let them.

    the u.s. bureau of labor statistics publishes the truth about the pay gap and the anti-female bias that are responsible for it.
