I didn't call you a predator - I suggested that you thinking that huge numbers of women were viewing you as a predator was a figment of an overactive, misogynistic imagination! I think you just proved the point.
But well done - you got me to respond to another trolling post.
Meanwhile, the rest of us live in a society where rights are given to women over men. Your denial of it is just ludricous.

The point of positive discrimination in certain cases is to change how society views other sectors of society including those who are normally excluded.
For example having more male primary school teachers helps to:
1. Stop boys normal behaviour being stigmatised
2. Give children who don't have good male role models them
etc.
On the other hand while having more female politicians is good the fact that all we are getting is the replacement of male politicians from a certain background i.e. Harperson's with female politicians from the same background isn't a good thing.
What did any of that have to do with what I said ....

On a sensible note as a female working in what could be the ultimate male industry (construction) I can say I have only ever once been at the receiving end of a discriminatory comment (& the giver was overdue for retirement & just of a different era) yes there is banter but that goes on for all the team & I give as good as I get, I am judge for what I do & not what I am so I think society is improving, as ever there will be “radicals” but generally life is shinyGrowing old is mandatory
Growing up is optionalComment
