Subject: RE: BS: Council for Women
Being a man, you've never been paid less or not hired for a job you are qualified for just because of being a woman. I've experienced that. I still remember the job bulletin board at the university financial aid office where there was a line down the center. On the left at the top, it said "Girls" on the right side at the top it said "Men". The index cards thumb tacked to the left side were minimum wage. The better paying jobs were on index cards thumb tacked to the side that said "Men".
