When will they start working toward equal rights? Especially when will African American boys get the same rights as rich white girls under Title IX?<BR/><BR/>Oh, and women doing the same job on average earn 4% less than men, and most of that is attributed not to gender directly, but negotiating skills. That 78 cents on the dollar figure just lends itself to reinforcing the stereotype that women can't do statistics and women are too stupid to pick careers that earn money. <BR/><BR/>Now the Lilly Ledbetter act was a good move, but in general, women aren't equal because they refuse to give up the rights and protections they have. Instead they toss out poorly done statistics and blame everyone but themselves. <BR/><BR/>Please, stop the rhetoric. My wife and my daughter are strong, kind, and intelligent. They don't deserve other women undermining them for the sake of advancement over equality.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
