Is this sign sexist? Debate breaks out over N.C. billboard - CNN.com

No question. Yuck.

Uber’s SVP of engineering is out after he did not disclose he left Google in a dispute over a sexual harassment allegation

Yea, I was thinking about that too. Legally he could only say so much in public. So don't expect an admission of guilt out of him.

 

So... He's not entirely a douchebag?

 

I'm still in the "he's entirely a douchebag" camp, myself.

 

I'm not defending him. It's just that he couldn't really say anything about it so I'm not gonna sway one way or the other because of that one statement, is all.

 

I didn't think you were defending him.

 

No worries, it was a general statement, esp after Khiem said "so he's not entirely a douchebag?" haha

 

I mean, it was an honest question. I didn't feel like he should be let off the hook, either, and your responses only validated that.

 

I would rather be tied to a tree, covered in honey, and left for the bears than talk about women's rights with the people here.
