Sexist, prejudicial stereotypical generalities. I believe calling an anonymous poster such things because of their opinion is hypocritical given what the march was supposed to be railing against.

I'm a female and I feel the same way about the mess in this picture.

A Pathetic display of disregard for other's male or female that have to clean up after them period.

There's absolutely no way that a woman would earn 80% less doing the exact same job as a male in any company or industry - that's honestly mental


Ssshhhhhhhhhh, you're going to ruin that whole delusion with facts. Keep your mouth shut and toe the line, you patriarchal, misogynistic, cis-gendered monster.

Ridiculous post. The streets are filthy after every parade. Ever see the mess left after the Halloween parade or the Puerto Recan Day Parade? Times Square on NYE? It's just as bad. I work downtown and was there for that ticker tape parade for our Olympic Team and swear I was picking pieces of paper out of my hair even days later. It was a total mess! Parades, protests, anything with a mass amount of people in streets = a huge mess to clean up later.

With that kind of.mentality, I can see rape being justified by such a person. If he feels okay with fondling a woman's pu**y zwithout her consent, then why not have sex with her without her consent. He has already indicated he can get away with sexual assault...why not rape itself. People like donald trump do get away with a lot because of their power and influence. How many cases have we seen on t.v. where rich white men commit how many crimes but can walk free becaude their parents are loaded? Many do have a sense of invincibility. One of the worst things I saw on t.v.
was this women who was beat to a pulp by her controlling abusive boyfriend. She died due to internal bleeding. You should have heard his rap sheet. He killed her becaude she wanted to break up with him. But like many Americans, there is that sense of this is mine and I own this, except in this case it was a human and the notion was magnified times 100. This is their mentality. It isn't somrthing to be taken lightly. Those same men will rape a woman and say that she wanted it. There are a lot of men out there like trump. They are complete narcasists.

Good point.., I do believe that the studies accounted for this. The reason I can believe it is because I have seen people being promoted based off their race for example. Are they the most qualified? No. But because they have white skin they were promoted. Like it or not, a lot of companies are ran like this. If thry are willing to pass over qualified workers for a job, it would follow that they would be unfair when it comes to wages.

I disagree. Things tend to start small. How many times in history did we see huge change occur but little at a time? Hitler didnt come to power over night. His policies were not declared all at once. Everything was done little by little. And just to keep prospective, we may think of Saudi as prehistoric regarding women's rights but I am pretty sure countries like Denmark are shocked at how behind we are towards the progression of females in ohr society. For exampme, women in the U.S. are very much expected to take materntiy leave. It is good that such a thing exisits but hey would find it discriminatory that men in most ststes cant take paternity leave. Thy would see this as backwards becaude the burden of reaponsibility is placed on the woman. They have actually implemented equal time off for men
to be with their children should they decide to stay home with their kids.

So Soros could finance a march around the world like this instead of just wining the election genius I tell you...

Why can't supposedly super-rich Trump get people to show up to his inauguration if it's so easy to just pay people?
