Although I have seen a few headlines about proposed female corporate quotas in the EU, I haven't seen any news of such proposals for the US. What countries are these corporate female quotas enforced in?

How often do you hear feminists fight for equal representation of women on the front line Conflagration? LOL ... maybe we should introduce women quotas for front line combat... seems to be the preferred solution nowadays.

Fininists DID try to get the ERA ratified. By the way, how much time have you spent on the front?

What a pathetic and irrelevant question.


 

I'll take that to mean none. You are the one who kept bringing up the front.

In relation to chess (to circle back to the original topic) if we are to believe google trends, the overall popularity of chess has been declining.

Due to people like Anand, it is becoming more popular in countries such as India, where there is still a wide gender equality gap.

It is becoming less popular in places like the US.

It is difficult to say what the outcome of these conflicting trends will be unless one had access to a lot of reliable data and to some pretty stout computer models.

Nah...I don't think you would adore the cigar-chomping, hairy arm pitted, tobacco spittle drooling mercenaries I'm getting to take Malta.  These girls are like "ERA? Yeah, well they give me my equal rights when I got my boot on their throat".

You sound like a typical little chauvinistic pig. Associate women's rights with hair under their arms. I've heard that association many times before. Maybe I'm dumb, but I thought it was natural for hair to grow under every bodies arms. What does that have to do with rights?

I hate when men think might makes right and they refer to other men as wemon...if they are women, is that because you prefer to to $@r#w them? If so maybe that explains a lot... I'd like to see one of you tough guys come and knock on my door and try to put your foot on my throat...

Wrong.

There is no gender equality gap in India, only a more traditional interpretation of gender roles. Even in India, women enjoy greater longevity than men.

114th out of 155 countries ranked. Seems the data shows you are wrong.

I'm planning on invading Malta shortly.  ciljettu will have his chance at the front if he wants.  I think I'll just bring girls along because:

a) A bunch of girls should be able to take Malta

b) It will really honk him off.

Maybe I'll bring some armed cub scouts too.

Women Marines, "First to Fight."  Laughing

The vision of @Ciljettu defending the Malta beaches from a squad of Amazon Marines and Armed Cub Scouts sounds like an epic battle.

Call out the Troops!

No @Joeyboy, I'm quick to pick up on the angels in your nature.  Your Don Rickles humor is quite good.  Very creative.
