If I get passed over for a promotion because the boss has to fill a quota, can I sue for discrimination??

Equal opportunity means exactly that- equal.

The quota laws will not happen because of the risk of litigation.


No because as I said a while back, positive discrimination is allowed (legislated)
and that is fkd.

We've got positive discrimination NOW. It's been happening for years. One gender gets the top jobs, the other gender gets the scraps. That's the situation, this IS fact, its not "perceived inequality".

How about a mardigra for straight people? Should we be proud? Is it wrong to say that?



Yes, something is wrong.

If you were straight, you would probably not want a Mardi-Gras

If you are proud to say you want a Mardi-Gras, then you are probably not straight.


A party, a carnival, a street parade for the kiddies, a riot or a piss up maybe - but not Mardi-Gras.


There is part of Europe (Germany, France, Italy, Belgium etc....) that have a very big Mardi-Gras in fact the party start the Friday b4 Mardi-Gras and finish at Midnite Mardi -Gras . It is the day before lent start and I remember that was THE party to go and it was not reserved for gays why did the gay Hijacked Mardi GRas????


Yep, just as I thought.

I know all about thoses parts of Europe becuase I watched an episode of Eurotrash once with Jean-Paul and Antoine de Cannes.

My point stands.

Hey Log man, I'm picking up what you are putting down.

The paid maternity leave has just put another gunshot wound in the gut of women who aspire to be more than a vacuous bit of fluff, a career driven lesbian man hater or a powerhungry ice queen.

Try being a 37 year old PhD. student and getting a job whilst listening to prospective emloyer panels bleating about the maternal clock ticking and the prospect of taking paid maternity leave, despit the fact that the individual in question (my girlfriend) clearly stating she has NO desire to have children. The interviewers are supposedly educated people, but are predominantley male and 'old school tie' types with their heads up their asses.

Women and men are different, but not as different as what Aristotle etc claimed back in the day when the earth was flat.

Just be proud of what you are!

Last week in the bus someone called me a white c**t.... made me feel good and proud of my heritage![}:)]


You should have been insulted-your profile says male which makes you a white dick not white c++t

interesting. Most blokes with families would list their ambitions as being able to spend more time with the family.... perhaps women do have all the best jobs.
