Totally not true. The hide of the man. None of us have ever thought women talk too much.

@gt12 he doesn't seem to have a problem with women who know what they're talking about.
Yeah, to be fair - the main-point of his comments did ring true with me...
- "If one person raises their hand, others probably think, I need to say something too. That's why everyone speaks."
...It's just that it isn't women that this is relevant to... but stupid people.
The number of meetings/conference-calls/discussions I've been in... and people just asking inane questions, or making fucking-obvious comments, or just "Yes, okay buddy, so you've just re-iterated what I literally just fucking said, but in stupid-talk"Fuck you work.

Dunno about women talking too much, but I once had two women square off against each other in business meeting - one was trying to hit the other with her shoe.
Bloody scary stuff - made testosterone-fuelled, BSD Directors look like wimps.

I wish.
EDIT: They were both quite hot, as I recall. One was a tall willowy blonde, the other a petite, very fit dancer.

Mori is the biggest f#ckwit ever. How he got the gig is beyond me.

well well well, how the turntables
It appears the Qld police, in their efforts to achieve 50% female recruitment, ended up blocking 200 more qualified male candidates from graduating. Six women graduating despite not making the grade to even enter the academy.
The Crime and Corruption Commission have given them a whack, and 3 people look to have lost their jobs (wait, just suspended). You would imagine not the 3 who made the policy decision though.

I often wonder why the push for 50/50 representation never seems to apply to primary schools?
I thought it did? I don’t know about right now but for some time there has been a push to get more male primary school teachers.
Or have I misunderstood? -

Or sewerage workers......
After 5 years working with the local water authority am astonished at the lack of effort to balance he 100% dominance of male workers at the sewage plants.
