Maybe Ben just can't compete with smart women anymore

I have a degree. Did just fine. There's something wrong when a class of 25 has just 3 men. In a history degree.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

My sources are talking about the OVERALL LABOR POOL. Are you mentally defective?Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View Post
Nobody is talking about men. Rather the ENTIRE LABOR FORCE.
My source went to age 24. Many degrees do take longer than four years, idiot.
We aren't seeing enrollment declines. You're STUPID.
NO SOURCES once again.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

And your sources also go on to talk about the historical lows among men 25-50.My sources are talking about the OVERALL LABOR POOL. Are you mentally defective?
I am talking about men. I suggest you address the points. The majority of those who are out of the workforce are not boomers. By your own source.Nobody is talking about men.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

NO SOURCE NO ARGUMENT, Ben.
It's obvious you didn't read the source I posted.

And how does that deal with my point that they are at historical lows for 25-50 year old MEN?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

And how do you deal with the fact that the 24-54 year old (sorry I said 25, the source says 24 corrected) have held steady? I'm talking about the ENTIRE labor force. I don't give two ****s about men like you not being able to compete anymore.
So many more women entering the workforce... that must be tough for you.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

The fact that the job cuts have disproportionately hit men?And how do you deal with the fact that the 24-54 year old (sorry I said 25, the source says 24 corrected) have held steady?
Ah. Wiser heads would suggest that given the segments of the economy and the fact that men tend to work in primary industry jobs that cuts here will lead to declines in workforce participation elsewhere.I don't give two ****s about men like you not being able to compete anymore
Women in general are down too, though not as much. Their participation peaked in 2007, and has dropped every year since.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

And there he goes again...
The idiot keeps making up more nonsense he won't back up...
I'm done for today. This moron makes up numbers, won't back up any of them and I think I've said enough to destroy his entire argument as it is.

Not really. There being so few men have meant opportunities for me as a teacher. The ladies don't like teaching boys in general and don't do as well with them, so I've generally ended up with classes of mostly boys.So many more women entering the workforce... that must be tough for youScouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

According to this chart:
Since 2004 - workforce participation among those 24-54 has declined from 82.9 to 80.9, contrary to what Giancarlo claimed that it has held steady. It has not.
Since 2004 - workforce participation among those 55-65 has increased from 36.2 to 40.0, contrary to what Giancarlo claimed, and corroborating my statement.
Since 2004 - workforce participation among those 65+ has increased from 14.4 to 18.6 contrary to what Giancarlo claimed, and corroborating my statement.
Since 2004 - workforce participation among those 75+ has increased from 8.8 to 11.3 contrary to what Giancarlo claimed and corroborating my statement.
Men 25-54 have declined from 90.5 to 88.2 percent. Women in the same age grouping have dropped from 75.3 to 73.9.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

There isn't a single category older than 55 that isn't up from where it was before, in 2004, Giancarlo.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Another interesting fact, women under the age of 55, are less likely to work now than in 1994. (74.6 to 73.8). Biggest change is the 16-19 group, 51.3 percent were in the workforce in 1994 - now just 34.5 are.
Of the 55+ category - it was just 24 percent in 2004, now it is 35 percent.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.
