This "something to think about " is wrong, and I am offended!

"To be considered successful, a woman must be much better at her job
than a man would have to be. Fortunately, this isn't difficult."

common!

[Ecthy]

I think that with the right sense of humour that is alright.

[Az]

yes, but I've yet to see women understanding this kind of humor. I will be offended too , in most cases.

[Ecthy]

Are you a woman?

Besides, there ain't no women here.

And then, do Americans feel offended by "America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between."?

[Skanky Burns]

I think its funny. But on the other hand, I've heard that joke that many times that its removal from the quote database would not have the slightest affect on me.

[notyoueither]

What would women find offensive about that?

[FrustratedPoet]

Exactly, I agree with NYE ... there is no way that women should be offended by that ... all it basically says it that men are really bad at their jobs and that women can easily do them better. Not only is it a very old joke, but I've heard it used by several feminist comedians in the past ...

[Az]

NOT WOMEN . I , as a man , find this joke to be offensive. And I am sure that a similar joke targetting women would offend them as well.

And if someone is offended by the "america" quote , he sure can demand to take it down. quotes by posters or famous people are ok with me.

Dal, dude, you´re too easily offended. Get some tougher skin will ya?

Heh. What offends me the most is that sometimes, the quote that I'm supposed to think about is three paragraphs long, so basically what I'm thinking on such an occasion is I should sign up for a faster reading course.

I see nothing wrong with it.

Damn, Zopper beat me to it. Don´t you just love cross-posting?

I think it "offensive" that this site wants you to think about anything. Imagine how boring this place would be (especially the OT) if people did actually think between posts.
