Quit sueing and start working. No wonder American firms are fleeing America as fast as they can

It is a well-documented fact that women in the factory do about 2/3 of the work of a man doing the same job. Furthermore, they are more prone to using sick days to cover for PMS or early menopause. They should be paid less and our beloved president will continue to ensure that they ARE paid less. Laziness is what laziness does.

Laziness is what laziness does. Spoken like a man. If a woman does a man's job she should be equally compensated. Are you lumping all women in the same category? Was this woman hourly or salaried? Most salaried women personnel work twice as hard as their men counterparts. In the factory, agree that a women needs to pull the same weight as a man - to be paid the same wages, however, in an office, men rarely pull their fair share.

They should confine their occupations to teaching, cleaning, nursing and food preparation.

You certainly have no sense of reality what so ever. Exactly what facts are you basing your opinion on? All of my female friends are in different areas of employment, including law enforcement, medical, and engineering and all have excelled beyond any males in the field....particularly my female doctor friend who graduated from Harvard. Additional to their careers, these women, and myself, take care of the children at home, run the household, and take care of the finances. So, your opinion is based on nothing but male insecurity.

I’ve managed a manufacturing facility for quite a while and can assure you women are better then men at some jobs and worse then men at others. Without question, women are generally much better about following instructions.

FYI, these women that you are speaking of are doing all of the above just as soon as we get home from work (lifting and throwing 80lb HOT tires for 8 hours a day, 6 days a week). When is the last time you tended to 4 children ages 12-16? This involves a whole bunch of teaching, cleaning, nursing, and food prep.

I will do my own editing. When was....not When is? Funny how grammar does not take precedence over fury.

Perhaps with your sick mentality, maybe our daughter will hire you for housework. Your lackadaisial, condescending views warrant no further response as to do so would make me stoop to your level (under a rock).

This isn't the 50's when a man could support a family and the wife stayed at home. I am 31 and my mother didn't work untill I was 15. I came home forlunch from school and allways ate good meals. Now days, the standard of living is higher so the wife needs to work also. If a person is doing a job they should get the same pay as everyone else. Discrimination is illegal in the U.S.A. so no worker should be discriminated against for any reason. If my wife was working doing a certain job,she shouldn't get less pay just because she is a woman. What sense does that make?

I have to weigh in on this one too... I worked with women in factories and retail for more than 40 years. As a group, women were no more lazy than men, some women I worked with put men to shame in performance, attitude and abilities.
As for standard of living, I don't think it is any higher than it was 40 years ago....... it is the desire for material possessions that is so much higher. I know many couples where the woman stays at home raising the kids and taking care of the house, some of them with 10 kids.
Any job that requires union membership will have equal pay for men and women....... been there, done that, retired from it.

I'd like to know if you are connected in some way, shape, or form, to our Gov't. If you are, you need to be thrown out. God created women the way they are, how's that you sick human. When men come home from the end of their workday, that's the END of their workday. When women come home, it's another 5 hrs. of taking care of everything around the house. Women can do circles around some men. We are used to it. We know what it's like to observe biasedness towards us. You are disgusting, and should be removed from posting on this forum.

Laziness is what laziness does. I worked piece work running a 1000 ton punch press stamping out combine parts, some 12 feet long and 4 feet wide. My helper was a woman, and the only one in the department that could keep up with me...... we ran a consistent 156%. Women in factories don't use any more time for PMS than men do for hunting and hangovers. You need a reality check on many levels.

Laziness is what laziness does. You've outdone yourself this time, Lance old boy. Who do you think churned out the "war product" during WWII when so many able bodied american men were overseas? Maybe you're not married nor have any female relatives? Furthermore, your "beloved president" has only 2 more years to continue dragging down entire sections of our citizenry.

Lance has pretty much shut up! I believe he knows when he's been outnumbered. I sure am curious to know if he's in the U. S. Gov't. If so, what branch? He's a sexist pig!
