...What? Sorry, I still don't get your point. <br /><br />Here's what I wrote:<br /><i>Aside for your zombie 'leader' spouting the usual zombie lies (as you noted), who in the world ever heard of this "fairness, and equal pay for equal work"? I mean, in a capitalist society. It's ludicrous. <br /><br />Employers pay their employees whatever the two sides negotiate, on the case-by-case basis. The person doing the same work in the next cubicle could be paid twice or a half of what you make. Which is why the payroll spreadsheet is usually the biggest secret in the company.</i><br /><br />Do you have any substantial objections to this, or are you trying, for some reason, to act as a pedantic asshole? <br /><br />If it's the latter, then you've succeeded, brilliantly.

For instance, it’s true that men won World War II in the sense that only men were in combat. But the industrial capacity of the US was crucial, and directing it toward the war effort required women. They also serve who only stand and rivet.<br /><br />But let’s not forget that Frances Perkins was Secretary of Labor from 1933-1945. That’s Frances with an <i>e</i>. So it wasn’t all Rosie.<br /><br /><i>That women are naturally driven to build and create at the same level men are?</i><br /><br />I have no idea. History is not an experiment we can repeat.<br /><br /><i>That had it not been for a systematic exclusion, women would have equally or more so helped create roads, oil tankers, light bulbs, steam engines, carburetors….</i><br /><br />I have no idea. And neither do you. I know that one of the brightest lights in the history of abstract algebra and mathematical physics was a woman. That seems harder than carburetion.<br /><br /><i>Further, you are saying that believing otherwise is misogynistic?</i><br /><br />No, not misogynistic. What’s that other thing?<br /><br />Oh, yeah.

Almost every advance in mathematics was made by a man.<br /><br />This is a true statement. But part of the world of mathematics was the systematic exclusion of women. It’s not that women are constitutionally incapable of doing mathematics. One of the most brilliant mathematicians of all time was Emmy Noether. When David Hilbert, another mathematician of Noether’s brilliance, invited her to join the faculty of the University of Gottingen, her appointment was blocked by other members of the faculty because of her sex. Hilbert famously protested to no avail, “We’re a university, not a bath house.”<br /><br />The boast that men alone built mathematics should ring hollow.<br /><br />Let me try an analogy you might be able to understand. Suppose that short people somehow got control of the game of basketball and had changed the rules so that no one over 5’ 8” could play an officially sanctioned game. What would you think of the claim that short people built the world of basketball?deadrathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02828198094140822987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-87059028648784208192019-05-22T12:27:01.361-04:002019-05-22T12:27:01.361-04:00To quote another passage:
