Women between the ages of 25 and 34 continue to be more likely than men in the same age group to have a bachelor’s degree. The gender gap in bachelor’s degree completion appears in every major racial or ethnic group, though the size of the gap varies widely.

What do men fear most about women? Being embarrassed by them. What do women fear most about men? Being killed by them. Until this changes, men have a lot of work to do. It’s on all us men to fix that. We’ve prided ourselves as being brave and strong, so surely we’re up to this challenge.

Even if both men and women are both capable of evil, that doesn’t mean men and women have done the same number and level of evil things throughout history. I’m willing to give them a shot at taking the lead for a bit.

Wow, I'm sorry you feel this way. You're wrong, it's embarrassing and pathetic, good for you for knowing your place. Why wouldn't you just choose the best leader whether man or woman?

We don’t do that now. Men are far more preferred because they’re men.

Yeah, it sucks that men have almost no humility about this.

The insult was great though, thanks. That helps.

Yeah so instead of doing what's logically correct, lets do the exact same thing but with woman? Your welcome enjoy your chair in the hotel.

You’re welcome to try and change my mind instead of belittling me.
