Professor is apparently on leave. Who is the KU instructor in the video? While a name has been circulating on social media, Barcomb-Peterson did not respond to a request to confirm the instructor's identity. A request for comment to that person's KU email account was not immediately returned. That individual's staff page on the KU Athletics website no longer exists, and at least one social media post by an athletics account with that name have been deleted, but as of around 1 p.m. Wednesday he s…

Naming a program in a way that indicates its only for one gender should be considered a Title IX violation. Trying to discourage people from applying for something is almost as bad as preventing them from applying.

I mean that’s the weird part. Main character Barbie goes around telling the other Barbie’s they were brainwashed… but we don’t see any actual brainwashing going on. Main character Ken just changes his own behavior and everybody seems to like it. If anything the message we take away is that Barbies aren’t very good at independent reasoning…

Barbie was the bad guy. Ken didn’t force anyone in Barbie land to change. He just told them about a different way of life and they all opted into it. When it came time to have elections and enact real change, the Barbies deliberately manipulated the Kens out of voting; subverting one of our most sacred democratic processes. They paid lip service to making things better for Kens in the end, but it was all just an act designed to keep the Barbies in power.

The most egregious example is in Afghanistan, he said, where the ruling Taliban have barred girls from education beyond sixth grade, from employment outside the home, and from most public spaces, including parks and hair salons. At the current rate of change, legal equality for women could take 300 years to achieve and so could ending child marriage, he said. I dunno if we should expect a rate of change driven by Afghanistan to continue applying in coming years. Afghanistan was just as bad 23 ye…

less women in senior positions Yeah, that's the one that gets touted as still being evidence of some massive conspiracy--women are supposedly being denied promotions, and/or are being coerced into working different jobs than men. I think there must be a better way to measure for that than looking at averaged salaries, though. Surely there'd be evidence of women leaving jobs at companies that denied them promotions, and going to companies that will level them appropriately; unless literally every…

Yeah, a coworker would frequently grope me as a “joke”, despite being asked to stop. I complained to our (female) boss who said “she likes you. Quit being a pussy and go for it”. Laughed when I told her it was harassment. After it happened a couple more times I shoved the girl away and told her real forcefully not to touch me again.

Nah, they just banned me over my comment in the post about “why aren’t white men more involved in conversations about diversity?” The article mentioned an example of a case where a badly implemented DEI program was denying a man a promotion he’d earned, but the interviewers dismissed it, so I pointed out that kind of dismissal is part of the problem.

They recently released an email with an infographic that stated that "only" 10% of the female employees are in management.

Stop hanging out with that person if you can. If you work with them and are hireable, just shot a polite email to HR about how it made you feel uncomfortable and their response made it worse (only do this if you can afford to look for a new job if it blows back on you).

I’m always rubbed the wrong way by the “feminists want this too” argument. Like the good thing is that it helps get more support for the issue and that ultimately leads to better results. But at the same time, if the only way a dad can get paternity leave is to argue that it would help the mom’s career... what does that say about his value in society? His spending time with his kid should be a compelling enough argument.

Eh, the number of times I’ve heard feminists say things like “we need paid paternity leave because it frees women up to go back to their careers” or “the problem with false allegations is they make the real accusers less likely to be believed” makes me think maybe they’re not the best group to tackle those issues. Sure, those are valid arguments towards both issues but they’re hardly the most pressing. We need paternity leave so men can be with their children. False allegations are wrong because…

Different actually. Every individual man pays more for insurance because a handful of irresponsible men ruined it for the rest of us. In this case, a handful of irresponsible women pay a lot of fees so “women as a whole” pay more. Financially responsible women pay the same amount of bank fees as financially responsible men ($0). But with car insurance, safe-driving men pay more than safe-driving women.

That’s usually the same argument I criticize feminists with.

The people calling you an idiot for asking that are right.

There's a long history of litigation that goes beyond just the organizations' founding dates. There were other scouting organizations at the time (and still are), but the BSA and GSUSA collaborated to monopolize the use of the word "Scout". The only reason they didn't go after each other was that they had separate member bases so they became natural allies. It's no surprise that's changing now that BSA is accepting girls.

Economically, that probably means building twice as many urinals as you need. Those costs add up. I think the quick access is one of the features of a urinal too, which makes the Alamo's design better. If you have to open and close a door to get into the stall, and now open some kind of urinal cover, it takes a little bit longer. Not noticeable for one user, but at a crowded sporting event or something those small delays can aggregate and compound into other problems.

The Mormons are making their own program, exclusive only for boys, and also one exclusive to girls (though they have had the girls program for a while). As a Mormon, and former scout leader, and MRA, even though I know most people don't agree with my beliefs, at least Mormons have specific classes and activities geared for boys separate from girls with male leaders That's how the BSA's program works. They're going to have separate all-girls troops and all-boys troops. I think their marketing is …

The Mormons have been on their way out of the BSA for years. Them leaving was probably a contributor to the decision to allow girls. BSA is hoping they’ll get enough girls to replace the Mormon boys they’re losing.

Good point. I had forgotten about that rule. I'm betting the way it'll turn out, there will be a lot of areas that have significantly fewer female scouts, so they'll start doing meetings and/or camping trips together to make things more efficient.

I honestly think they won’t do that. There’s a feud growing between them and the Girl Scouts over this, and the Girl Scouts absolutely have been doing the things you’re talking about. The BSA’s program becoming more inclusive is good because it provides girls with a better alternative that’s free of all that crap. The SJW types will gravitate towards the Girl Scouts and the BSA will be fine. There will be changes though. Things will be fine the first couple years, but a sex scandal (between teen…

I'm willing to bet the big difference in coverage is because the southwest flight tells a better story. The engine took out a chunk of the plane and killed a passenger.

Please try to be more vague in your posts. Not including any specifics about which episode you’re talking about was a good start, but maybe next time you should also omit the name of the show itself.

“Some men’s clubs may act as a way for the establishment to maintain power and keep things the way they are by locking out any new or dissenting voices.

If we’re arguing anything political, feminists are pretty quick to tell me that I can’t understand a woman’s experience and shouldn’t make her decisions for her.

I had a similar experience, but I'm always reluctant to call it a sexual assault. It seems demeaning to the people who have suffered way worse than I have. The co-worker who groped me wasn't the problem in my situation. She was just a dumb kid who didn't know any better. The thing that gets me was that our boss laughed me out of the office when I reported her.

Sounds good on the surface, but it's an attempt to "bring white men into the conversation" by the same people who won't hesitate to tell white men that their place in all of this is to "shut up and listen". Basically they want to bolster their numbers by having a bunch of puppets show up but not give those puppets a say. If anything they'll provide a forum for men to publicly apologize for their toxic masculinity and be educated on which progressive causes they need to show support for in order …

I'm saying this as a devil's advocate, not actually somebody who holds this position: The urinal isn't a "men only" device, because some women have penises. Gender is a social construct blah blah blah. Anyhow, I can see that as a logical reason why the men's room would be the one you chose. Somebody who identifies as a woman might still be able to make use of the urinal. So then it would make sense for that person to use the "all genders" restroom.
