Or that they won't get taken seriously at job interviews. So again, blame society.

My argument is very simple: is their first point of call to complain about other women? No, its to complain about men even though its their choice. Glass houses and stones.

Which makes more sense. Its well proven that sex sells.

Well I mean it's not apparent that the article is only talking about sales or PR positions, but it is kinda funny that they lead with that.

Well, men and women support patriarchy both, so complaining about men? Makes no sense, imo. Unless they're RadFems.

You think I'm a RadFem? Try TERFs. Try those who think men are literally the enemy and all deserve to die, and make disgusting, derogatory comments... yeah. It's out there, and it's realy.
