I try cheesy

Insecure is the only black series I like ATM, but am sure you will like American Crime story(this is a must watch, the OJ Simpson trial, talks about a lot of racial stuffs and how it came to play. it was also very hilarious to me.) . You can check Narcos( Pablo Escobar), Casual, Rick and Morty(anime), I don't know if you have watched Boondocks(this is damn hilarious)

So in order of fun
American Crime Story(this is also more centered on blacks and gender too)
Narcos (cartel drug related)
Boondocks (blacks, racism, politics etc)
Rick and Morty (witty sarcasm) currently watching
Casual. (about modern day relationships and its upheavals) Currently watching
I've watched Rick and Morty, I've been meaning to watch Boondocks my friends have been recommending it for years and I can tell I'll like it, I'm just lazy. I've heard of some of the others listed too, will check them out. Thanks! smiley

You are too egoistic, unenlightened and narrow minded to get my drift hence why you are being dismissive and casting shallow aspersions at a failed attempt in sounding intellectual. Dude is even asking me to post dates as to when women started childbirth and childcare? Or what other social expectations is there again.

Good bye.
Lmao you dey mind that one that I asked for simple link only for him to dissapear like a fart in wind?

I cited 1919 because it’s an example of not being allowed at all rather than just being restricted

Laws like 1919 were more or less just formal agreements and didn’t necesarily mean a change in attitude, sexism was still carried through ‘generations’ despite being passed ‘since’...
Law is one of the professions that is ever changing and evolving, asides I am wondering how an action that occurred in 1919 can be remotely linked to what is happening in 21st century, this ain't history woman.
Things can progress and still be uneven

Supreme court judge admits ‘it could take 50 years to achieve gender equality in the judiciary’ as recent as 2015.

https://www.theguardian.com/law/2015/sep/22/gender-equality-warning-uk-legal-profession-supreme-court-judge-jonathan-sumption

I hope you aren’t one of those people who thinks ‘changing and evolving’ means we’ve already attained peak equality, if so that’s very optimistic

Nobody denies talent if it's staring in their faces, there are several records to prove this. If they ain't exceptional, they go where they fit
Lol you’re not going to get every job you want and can’t always blame discrimination but if you think there isn't a possibility forsome type of discrimation in hiring it’s a utopic and naive way of thinking

Studies have also shown that that there is sometimes a systematic bias against women

A 2012 randomized, double-blind study gave science faculty at research-intensive universities the application materials of a fictitious student randomly assigned a male or female name, and found that both male and female faculty rated the male applicant as significantly more competent and hirable than the woman with identical application materials.

http://www.pnas.org/content/109/41/16474.abstract#aff-1

A 2014 study found that both men and women were twice as likely to hire a man for a job that required math where subjects were hired to perform an arithmetic task that and on average, both genders perform equally well.

http://www.pnas.org/content/111/12/4403.full

Are we talking ASTRONOMY here?
Astronomy is a branch of science (physics)

With the considerable amount of female lawyers, that we have today, I don't get this point
This is like a white person thinking black people’s success proves racism is over lol oh boy cheesy

How did I insinuate this, when I emphasized on the word 'sampling' emotion or logic here?
You're having a laugh right? cheesy

I’ve been saying men don’t dominate those positions just because of an innate ability, like that’s literally been my only point throughout this discussion…

That societal factors also helped with affording them those roles and I have specifically used the word solely in every post too, those are the only points i’ve made albeit citing references.

You’ve been responding like that was what you were arguing for, didn’t make any mention of not meaning solely and even asked for other factors besides innate ability

And you’re asking where you insinuated…ok this is where I take my exit sha lol


Did you manage to find the part where I got emotional, drifted etc? [/b]
If I had quoted those references, we will end up derailing the major subject.
P.s. Lol I’ll just take it that it doesn’t exist, doesn’t take much to summarise, one bullet point sef, there’s even another convo we were having in this thread you could’ve mentioned it in.

Unsurprisingly lazy/lousy cop out, don’t even worry again my brother lol

No hard feelings sha wink

ToyinDipo:
I quoted based on your emphasis on the word rational
If you want to debate with a lady, you keep it as simple as possible to allow drifting, that's why I hinged the argument on the major point, because all other points will only point to why men dominate logic based profession.
Lol right. cheesy

Seems like you just got a bit triggered by the word then went on a random ego driven tangent. Lol typical. Like, wetin consine violence with profession? huh

Lol but I emphasised it only in the context of emotional intelligence, did you not see all the other words floating around it in the paragraph? cheesy

Even another poster pointed out the drift and was confused cheesy

Are you going to show me where I dirfted mate I've been asking since the dawn of this discussion because these side comments you keep making only work if it's true cheesy

sunshineG:
yes I know, I said some not all

So in essence, you agree with me that although woman might have been discouraged in the past, there is nothing to suggest that those very intelligent men who are the top of the food chain will have been displaced anyway if the reverse have been the case for women huh

Cause you are twisting my very small brain now embarassed
Not saying they would be displaced or undermining their achievements

There's a difference between women displacing them (not what I'm saying) and women being in similar positions more equally

I guess, she would not have cheated if she had compared Lawrence to the dude she cheated with.
Maybe she was just frustrated with him so it pushed her to seek comfort in someone else, moment of weakness

1) some of the studies you use as evidence are cross sectional in nature ( which means the information were only collect at once from the participants and at a particular time) while these studies are great in measuring opinion of a certain place or people it will be very difficult to draw absolute conclusion from it

2)loosing of interest is something that happen in both genders. Although, it is true that women may be pressured into loosing interest more than men because of societal issues

3)I never dispute the cognitive performance of women in any way. However, does that mean that men who reach top position through their cognitive abilities wouldn't have done that if women are more motivated. I doubt it

smiley hope I made sense
1.
It's just an example
The study is more speculation based on indicative patterns, doesn't claim to be the ultimate/absolute truth
I'm not making absolute conclusions either
One of the studies collected data spanning 20 years


2.
We're saying the same thing. Both can lose interest, yes, but females are 'socialised/groomed' away from it more then men

3.
They can both 'succeed' together and at the same time. I'm saying that given equal footing, women may not be as behind as they were. I'm not saying women would've knocked men out of their spots or men only reached the top because women aren't as motivated,
Romance › Re: Angry Lady Destroys Her Boyfriend's Jeep For Cheating On Her. Photos/Video by ibkayee(f):
sunshineG:
so your arguments is only based on the social issues being a major reason for limited numbers of women in top position based on mental capacity, not that they will automatically be in top position if given the chance smiley
Hope I made sense huh

Don't mind my pry 2 grammar smiley
I'm not saying they'd automatically be given the top jobs lol, I'm saying consider the following when using only 'who dominates these careers' as the only way to measure 'natural ability.'

Socialisation (gender stereotyping from birth) i.e. Robot for boy, doll for girl
Historical inequalities
Covert structural/institutional sexism
Being encouraged into more domesticity roles (children etc)

Studies show women are scoring slightly higher than men in technology and engineering literacy

https://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2016/05/data-girls-stem/483255/

'but according to a study commissioned by Microsoft in Europe, the problem occurs when young women lose interest in these subjects or are dissuaded from involvement at around the age of 15 (CNN). “Conformity to social expectations, gender stereotypes, gender roles, and lack of role models continue to channel girls’ career choices away from STEM fields” (CNN).'

I'm saying It's not necessarily because they lack the ability, choosing a career is not just linked to how good you are at something. It is also about whether you like it (things like socialisation come into play), and if you want to work at it.

'The evidence has piled up for years. In 1990, Janet Shibley Hyde, PhD, a psychologist at the University of Wisconsin, and colleagues published a groundbreaking meta-analysis that compiled data from 100 different studies of math performance. Synthesizing data collected on more than 3 million participants between 1967 and 1987, the researchers found no large overall differences between boys and girls in math performance. Girls were slightly better at computation in elementary and middle school. In high school, boys showed a slight edge in problem solving, possibly because they took more science classes that emphasized those skills. But boys and girls understood math concepts equally well and any gender differences actually narrowed over the years, belying the notion of a fixed or biological differentiating factor.'

'The research suggests that perceived or actual differences in cognitive performance between males and females are most likely the result of social and cultural factors.that. For example, where girls and boys have differed on tests, researchers believe social context plays a significant role. Spelke believes that differences in career choices are due not to differing abilities but to cultural factors, such as subtle but pervasive gender expectations that kick in during high school and college.'
