1	STUDY: Blind Recruitment Aimed At Boosting Female Hires Actually Does The Opposite do you know where affirmative action came from? It's an executive order asking people to favour ("positively discriminate") marginalized groups. The civil rights act is the law that outlines that it is illegal to discriminate based on sex or race or religion ect. It's stupid to positively discriminate and it's possible to take a colour and gender blind approach by focusing on wealth!	/r/MensRights	05/07/17 11:20 PM
1	STUDY: Blind Recruitment Aimed At Boosting Female Hires Actually Does The Opposite discrimination at the hiring level is often covered by separate discrimination laws. You can't discriminate against someone because of their gender, age, religion ect. Affirmative action attempts to correct for the fact that hiring by merit biases toward those who have the resources to compete, which is white men on average in North America. I don't agree with affirmative action because it doesn't solve the real problem that those groups are poorer and less able to compete.	/r/MensRights	05/07/17 04:20 PM
3	Feminazis BTFO What I find is that black people are under represented in universities and the system is dominated by white people and Asian Americans.	/r/MensRights	04/07/17 11:56 PM
1	Feminazis BTFO How did you come to the conclusion white men have the least opportunity there?	/r/MensRights	04/07/17 10:05 PM

1	STUDY: Blind Recruitment Aimed At Boosting Female Hires Actually Does The Opposite I think I need to make something clear. I do not view affirmative action as an effective way to ensure equality in the workplace. Nobody should be discriminated against based on their gender, age, race or religion in hiring practices. This includes any measures taken to correct for any perceived inequalities (aka I am against affirmative action). My issue is that saying "companies should be able to hire on merit only as that is equality" doesn't take into account the socioeconomic factors surrou…	/r/MensRights	04/07/17 09:07 PM
1	STUDY: Blind Recruitment Aimed At Boosting Female Hires Actually Does The Opposite That wasn't my point but okayyyyyyy The whole idea that companies should be forced to hire a diverse group of people is because different groups of people are disadvantaged before they get to the hiring process. This article proves that if you take away affirmative action then we go right back to hiring mostly men because that group is advantage in areas that help get jobs. My argument is that we should be addressing wealth inequality and helping poor people become better candidates. This should…	/r/MensRights	04/07/17 11:43 AM
0	STUDY: Blind Recruitment Aimed At Boosting Female Hires Actually Does The Opposite Women and minorities in North America are, on average, in a lower socioeconomic class than men. That's not the disputable part of the argument. I think it hurts anyone fighting for men's rights to argue against that fact. Affirmative action is a response to the inequalities people face prior to getting to the workplace application process. My argument is that instead of forcing companies to have people hired that aren't the best, start helping poor people become better candidates for the jobs. T…	/r/MensRights	04/07/17 11:23 AM
-1	STUDY: Blind Recruitment Aimed At Boosting Female Hires Actually Does The Opposite If you hire based on merit then the individuals who were privileged enough to be ahead of the pack will win the competition more often. The reason they are ahead of the pack is a combination of hard work, personal luck, and being born into a socioeconomic class that allows them to pursue activities that caused them to be the best. "We hid how rich people were from their resumes, but rich people still were hired more often than poor people! This must mean that we shouldn't help poor people get jo…	/r/MensRights	03/07/17 06:54 PM
