Your suggestion that theres a widespread conspiracy involving women at universities and schools being given a different easier set of tests is a conspiracy theory I asked a genuine question. And dont lecture me on baiting, that's all you've done in this thread |

But in this case you're accusing the whole education system. Thousands of people would have to be involved. Its madness, Alfred, sheer madness.

You're not accepting what I say and you're questioning me on it, but you're just prepered to accept what the authorities tell you. They've been known to lie and be corrupt on many occasions. |

so you are seriously suggesting that in a GCSE Physics exam, girls get a different paper to boys? how would that even work given they publish the exam papers online for the following years cohort of students to revise

This started as me replying to TwoSugars getting excited and proud at a female doing well in this field, had that have been a man, Twosugars wouldn't have even posted, because he expects it off men to do well in this field. Why does he seem delighted that a female succeeded? Because it's not the norm. But suddenly it's becoming the norm. Most work forces in the public eye are pushing for equal representation of men and women, and they'll do what they have to do to achieve it. |

That's why I'm pleased at signs it is changing. Girls feel confident enough to go for science bc they know they dont have to worry about those things and will be judged on merit not their sex I think you are confusing it with the drive to have fair representation in decision making, the hierarchy of institutions. A fair chance of advancement. Ending the practice where between two equally talented people it has to be a man who gets put in charge etc Last edited by Twosugars; 19-08-2019 at 09:51 PM. |

It will be interesting to know why she's a previous employee of NASA? Maybe it would give my theory more weight.

The problem isnt what she did, its the assumption that is insulting to women

On the actual story in the op, which I've not commented on yet, he was just joking, he says so. Maybe he did it as an icebreaker. This isn't even a story that we need to know about, but why are we?

It's called "negging", it's a pick up technique that saddos who talk about "having game" use to try to chat up girls. On this occasion he (quite rightly) was called out on it.

hmm, so all the lady doctors, surgeons, pharmacists, biologists etc etc etc all from a science background, had an easier time of it than men in the way through their education?

If anyone's interested, the basic premise is to "tease" someone by making them out to be unimpressive, in the hopes that it'll play on some insecurity and they will then double down on their efforts to "impress" or catch the attention of the person doing the negging. In other words, baiting someone who wasn't all that interested into "doing the chasing". It's crappy just like any other pick-up "trick". I do agree with you though that she should just have shot him down in the chat and blocked. If she wanted to post it as an example of what women have to put up with (which is also fine) she should really have blanked out any names / pictures / other identifying information. It flies a little too close to doxxing otherwise, in my opinion. |

...she did actually invite him to start chatting and have a two way conversation......but whilst he was waiting, he continued the conversation on his own, undermining her, having a little chat to himself...either assuming that she had been a receptionist or assuming a joke about her being a receptionist was okay...and she did actually say...’this is why I’m single...’....he made his choice, she made hers ...some things are just not meant to be.....
