Meme - Blaze: "Hello @Eva , I noticed you have a profile picture of a very beautiful (but also intelligent looking!) female, and I am under the presumption that this goddess is you? It is quite astonishing to see a female here in the Pummel Party Official discord. I am quite popular around here in this server, so if you require and guidance, please, throw me a mention. I will assist you at any hour, day or night. And, before you are mistaken, I do not seek your hand ina romantic way; although, I am not opposed in the event you are interested in me, as many women often are. I am a man of standard, and I do not bow to just any female that comes my way, unlike my peers... So rest assured that I will not be in the way of your gaming and socializing experience. Consider me a Player 2..a companion, a partner, and perhaps we can enjoy some video games together some time. I see you play pummel party, and are you good at mini games? I am a mini-game aficionado, so I would be happy to assist you in games. Platonically of course, unless you (like many others) change your mind on that. I look forward to our future together (as friends of course.)"

Kai Peter Chang's answer to What is it like to date a stripper/dancer? - Quora - "Some men may think that fashion models/actresses are the apex of female beauty. They are wrong. Having dated actresses and fashion models in my past, I have observed firsthand how hard the battallion of makeup artists, hair stylists and post-camera photoshop specialists work to bring her face and figure to perfection for the final cut.  A dancer at a strip club is the beneficiary of none of these things, yet she is judged by exactly those same harsh beauty standards, and her earnings are directly influenced by how well she can conform to those expectations. This is a vocation where every extra pound of excess fat can literally costs you thousands of dollars a week in forgone earnings... dancers who can successfully earn a living at it for 6+ months are, for the most part, unusually beautiful, command incredible core strength (every dancer I've been with had better abs than me and can easily beat me in a situp competition) with above-average sexual charisma.   Does this stamina translate into the bedroom? If you ask me this question in person, I will reply with a wicked smile and a half-shrug and say "what do you think?"...   On the topic of other men, one of the major downsides of dating a dancer is that her beauty draws a lot of attention. This goes double as an Asian guy with a beautiful White woman, which is something that is so infrequently seen, that it draws an unbelievable amount of curiosity. Many guys will subtly "test" you - see how you react to mildly flirty behavior. Do you nervously grab her hand or engage in other weak mate-guarding behavior, or are you confident and relaxed? One of those will lose the girl. The other will make her cling tighter to your side.   I liken the experience to parking a nice sports car on the street in a mixed-urban setting - it's inevitable that random people will try your car door to see if it is unlocked (and if so, they will ransack your glove compartment) but few are brazen enough to shatter your window on the off chance there may be something worth stealing in your vehicle... This may be politically-incorrect to say, but in my observation, Black guys tend to be the most brazen in straight-up attempts to hit on her directly/extract her from me...   If you wish to date a dancer, you must be like the eye of a hurricane - a calm center around the swirling chaos of sexual energy that surrounds her. The moment you get insecure or defensive/jealous, the spell is broken."

Meme - "My husband likes that I have gotten fit and toned after losing 50lbs, but I want to be single and focus on enjoying life now. Should stay married or file for divorce so we both don't waste each other's time?"
"Get a divorce. He stuck with you through thick and thin (pun intended). He's earned a lifetime of fidelity and respect. He's not going to get that from you. The fact that now that times are good you are bailing speaks tons to your character. Don't worry about wasting his time...you already did, and it is too late now. If vows mean nothing to you, and his sacrifice for you means nothing, no amount of him begging you to stay will change that. You should leave. Just don't take the high road...you haven't earned it. You're not being selfless by staying with him or offering to leave. You want to enjoy life? Go ahead. But the honorable thing is to build a life of enjoyment with him, because he stood by your side. I'd wish you the best, but it sounds like you have it and don't want it. Good luck."

Men Marry Women with the Hope They Will Never Change. Women Marry Men with the Hope They Will Change – Quote Investigator - "The earliest solid match to the statement known to QI occurred in the play “Cynara” by H. M. Harwood and R. Gore-Browne which was performed in London in 1930. The drama moved to Broadway in 1931, and it was included in a compilation of “The Best Plays of 1931-32”. The character John Tring offered the following insight about marriage. The phrasing differed from the quotation under examination, but the underlying idea was the same... “Women marry men hoping they will change, and men marry women hoping they won’t. And each is inevitably disappointed.”"

PayPerView: Comparison of Vaginal Shapes in Afro-American, Caucasian and Hispanic Women as Seen with Vinyl Polysiloxane Casting
Comparing black, white and hispanic women, among those who had had one child, hispanics had the widest vaginas, followed by blacks, then whites. Among those who had not had children, blacks were very slightly smaller than whites (there were no hispanic women who had not had children). In black women their vaginas became wider with more children, in whites they became narrower (?!). In hispanics they may have gotten narrower

Part of me feels great, the relief after years of treatment etc, finally feeling like my true self. The other part is swimming in a sea of emotions, trying to cope with my new reality. I feel invisible, like I died and came back as a ghost. It seems like everywhere I go, there's this dramatic shift in how people treat me, even my closest friends have become distant. Im bi (mostly attracted to women) but right now I feel sexless. Previously I had people approach me, send me messages, now nothing, like a light switch. I eventually worked up the courage to ask out a girl I know (with some help from my guy friend) and her reaction was something like disgust mixed with pity. I walked away from that in tears, questioning everything, feeling like just a cog in a machine instead of a human being. used to look in the mirror and envision myself as this confident, strong man who can just live his life. Now I see a short, effeminate, weak boy, who can't stop himself breaking down at least once a day. Does anyone know what I can do? I just feel so crushed."

Meme "I'm FTM, I often feel like de-transitioning because my life was much easier when I was a woman. Heightism and the Male Experience.
I'm a 5'3 ftm transgender man. At first I was happy when I transitioned, but I never knew how bad the male experience would be in society. One example is heightism. When I lived my life as a woman, I wasn't really aware of heightism men face to be honest. When I was a woman, I felt uncomfortable in my own body. Now that I've transitioned, it's society who makes me feel uncomfortable of my body. Sure now they see a man, but in their minds, they see a man who's not a real man. From feeling powerless and smaller compared to others of my gender, to some people wanting to treat me as a punching bag of a friend group. People who I barely just met will make rude comments or jokes about my size, and I know if I respond with a similar comment about their weight (which I would never do anyways because I don't like body shaming of any kind) I know I would be considered an asshole, but yet it's ok for people to make fun of mens height. Dating was going to be hard for me anyways since I'm a man with no penis, but when I used to be a lesbian I had more dating options, but now that I'm a guy, plenty of women will reject me just for my height alone, before I even get a chance to tell them I'm trans. The worst past is that height body shaming, or the hurdles I have to face for my height just simply isn't taken as seriously, so it feels I'm battling something all alone, when I try to be confident some people hate short guys with confidence for whatever reason. They see it as a person who doesn't know their rightful place. In general it just seems being a man is a colder world. I get accused of privileged and on top of that I don't even benefit from the privileges the average man gets since I don't even meet the standard of the average man. Even studies will show you how height really affects men, they get paid less, suicide rate goes up, more likely victims of crimes, seen as less attractive, and so on. don't know what to do. Is it worth feeling more comfortable in my body if society is going out of it's way to tell me I'm not a real man for my size? At least when I was living in my past body, society didn't treat me like shit. They respected me more as a tom boy woman, than me now as a fully transitioned man. I'm just venting. I just feel alone. often feel like de-transitioning, just to not be treated like shit."

Against judicial activism

From Adrian Tan, President of The Law Society of Singapore: 

Don't litigate.

I'm talking about asking a judge to change laws made by the legislature. I'm talking about that type of litigation.

Normally, if people are unhappy about a law made by their legislature, they ask their elected representatives to change the law.

Those representatives debate the law openly in the legislature. They discuss the views of the community, special interest groups and national policies affected by the law. If the law is repealed, it's because it is in the national interest.

That's democracy.

That's why, in many countries, when people want to effect change, they ask their elected representatives to do so. Doing it this way is the norm.

But in the United States, it’s common for people to ask the court to strike down laws passed by their elected representatives. There, litigation is used to fight social issues, such as abortion. The US has its own historical reasons for using the court in that way.

Let's be clear: when people ask a judge to strike down a law, they are expressing doubts about their own democratic process. They are saying that they don't trust their politicians, or their elections, or their legislative process. That's why they seek to effect social change through litigation.

But there are problems when people ask a judge to strike down a law passed by the legislature.

Problem 1: If a judge strikes down a law, it may affect other people who did not have a say in the decision.

Problem 2: A judge generally focuses on technical stuff, such as whether the law is constitutional. The judge typically won’t consider the wider, non-legal implications of striking down that law. That's not the judge's job.

This brings me to Section 377A of the Penal Code, which criminalises male homosexual conduct.

People have asked the court to strike down 377A. In the latest case, our highest court didn’t strike it down, but said that in future cases, it might do so.

In response, the Government said it will repeal 377A and pass laws to protect the definition of marriage. It will be done in Parliament.

That's a democratic way of changing the law. I made this point at a panel discussion on 377A (link below). I didn’t offer my personal views on 377A and marriage: that’s for another post.

But what if, after Parliament passes those laws about marriage, someone goes to court to challenge those laws? Well, Parliament can pass a law to say that those laws can't be challenged in court.

Well, what if someone goes to court to challenge that law that says that the law cannot be challenged in court? What if someone goes to court to challenge whether 377A should be repealed at all?

You see where I'm going with this?

We shouldn't adopt the US approach. We shouldn't ask the court to rule on social issues. We should effect social change through Parliament. The court isn't meant to be a surrogate Parliament.

We shouldn't import the tactics of the culture war from the United States into our country.

Links - 14th October 2022 (1 - Feminism)

Meme - "The idea that 1950s housewives led happy, fulfilled lives is so thoroughly ahistorical it's almost shocking. By 1952, an estimated 50,000 mostly female patients in the United States and Canada had been lobotomized, and millions of women were prescribed "Mother's little helper"- barbiturates for anxiety and depression."
The history of barbiturates a century after their clinical introduction - "Barbiturate use in the pre-benzodiazepine period was such that, in the USA alone, production of these drugs reached, in 1955, the quantity necessary for the treatment of 10 million people throughout an entire year"
In 1955, the US female population was estimated at 83.2 million so there were enough barbiturates made for 12% of the female population (assuming no men took them). From 2015-2018, 17.7% of US adult women used antidepressants in the last 30 days. Clearly women are better off being housewives

Twitter and the UN screeched obnoxiously at people to "stop interrupting women" and were rightly trolled into oblivion
Interruptions, gender, social media, and confirmation bias - "Interruptions are common in most conversations, but is there are general trend among those talking as to who interrupts whom? Recently David Schmitt tweeted about a paper called “Influence of Communication Partner’s Gender on Language” (Hancock & Rubin, 2014). It gained some traction as it featured a graph purporting to show women interrupt other women more than men. It implies there is an interaction between the gender of the speaker and the gender of the communication partner, with women interrupting other women a lot more than they do men and men interrupting either gender about as frequently. Given the generally widely held belief that men interrupt women more than other men, this stirred quite a bit of interest as it seemed to provide evidence against this idea. But what do the results show?"
At the very least, we have some evidence that men don't interrupt women more

I feel like I'm just going through the motions and I'm so desperate for affection that I constantly find myself seeking closeness through my interactions with others and lately, it's gotten worse At night, I can only fantasise and dream of being held and cuddling my child but then reality hits and the pain replays itself again. I'm going crazy out of my mind because I feel like I have to upkeep this facade of being a "strong independent woman" because I'm so afraid that the other persons intentions aren't the same as mine. Nowadays, it's so difficult to find people who genuinely want the same thing. I just really hope this year I will be strong and ok enough to allow myself to be vulnerable with someone so that I can finally experience what I've always wanted. I'm a hot mess, and there's a lot more to my story but who has the time for that?"

After failing to get her to pull over, Derr and other motorists followed her home, where she allegedly obtained a gun and pointed it at Derr. The 40-year-old then took out his own firearm and fired multiple rounds, fatally wounding Morales."

Feminists Freak Out After Discovering Men Don’t Want To Date ‘Woke’ Women - "The problem all started with British drama star, Laurence Fox, who declared, on the BBC, that he does not believe criticism of Duchess Meghan stems from racism, and then followed up his transgression against social justice by insisting in the pages of one of the United Kingdom’s top newspapers that he does not date woke women.  That is all just too much for feminists, it seems, who, despite swearing off men so often it’s practically their pledge of allegiance, want desperately to have the pick of men to partner with — and to deny them such a variety is, apparently, oppressive, sexist, and, for good measure, very “Donald Trump.”... Fox’s lack of woke bona fides is actually causing an entire generation of woke women mental harm... The author says she could go to great lengths to prove just how wrong Fox is — that “white privilege” exists, and that “institutionalized racism” is effectively eliminated by, say, including a single Sikh soldier in a movie about World War I, but she won’t, because Fox is clearly mentally ill (he does, after all, like arguing with feminists on Twitter, so she may not be wrong). And she could joke about Fox’s lack of wokeness, but in perhaps the most feminist line in the entire article, she insists that there’s nothing about his behavior that’s funny.  She simply says he should be deplatformed before his ideas creep into the psyches of other males, who then start refusing to date feminists, too. But unfortunately for her, it’s already happening. To illustrate her point, she writes, in what can only be “hushed tones,” about the men she and her friends have matched with on dating apps who say “openly sexist and misogynistic things” in their Tindr bios (like “I hate big eyebrows” or “no psychos,” two terms the author unintentionally reveals to be effective at weeding her out of the dating pool), and who hold “right-wing views” even if they consider themselves liberal.  There’s even a rash of men, she writes in horror, who have read Jordan Peterson, who has suggested that “white privilege” is a lie and that pursuing “social justice” is a pointless and toxic endeavor. These men, she says, then have a tendency to group together which, she posits, is how humanity got “incels” and online white supremacist chat rooms, though without any evidentiary support. Men who don’t like feminists should not be allowed to associate with anyone else, she seems to suggest, lest they share wrong ideas... The good news is, these men who refuse to date woke women are responsible for everything from the murder of a Labour MP several years ago before Brexit, to the rise of Donald Trump, to the continued oppression of the entire female gender (to the extent that gender still exists), to “Megxit” — Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to leave the UK to find a new life in Canada — to the rise of right-wing media. But if this all sounds as though the author is demonizing these men who simply wouldn’t consider her for a date, rest assured, she is. After all, despite devoting thousands of words to the subject of being these men’s sworn enemy, she is not, in fact, an enemy at all, except in their imaginations."

Mothers’ low productivity hurts overall pay for women - "Policymakers should pay heed to the gender gap’s complexity and the interplay of factors that impact how much men and women are paid before deciding how best to proceed...   The backbone of the equal pay movement — equal pay for equal work — assumes that men and women are equally productive in the same job. But the evidence does not support this claim.  Using Danish data, I studied the relative output of firms employing more men compared to firms employing more women and found that productivity differences explain about two-thirds of the gender pay gap. On average, women are 8-percent less productive than men, so we would expect them to be paid 8-percent less... Put simply, firms don’t seem to be making tons of money by hiring women to do as much work as men but then underpaying them. This means that if equal pay legislation really forced firms to change the pay of women, we may expect many firms to stop hiring women or to change the way they classify the jobs women do...   I find that motherhood alone drives the gender productivity gap: Mothers are substantially less productive than men, and their lower productivity completely explains their pay gap.   Where does this lower productivity come from? I could tell you a few personal stories (and had to keep myself from sharing these with potential employers when they asked the same question), but they all come back to hours worked...   In contrast to mothers, women without children are as productive as men, but they are also paid less than men. For these women, the gap between pay and productivity is concentrated in their prime childbearing years.  Why are these women underpaid? A natural explanation is that employers pay young, childless women less than young, childless men because they expect these women will soon have children and reduce their hours.  To avoid reducing a female employee’s pay as soon as she has children (which would be an unattractive HR decision for a variety of reasons) firms may pay women less in anticipation of childbirth.  Consistent with this hypothesis, the gap between pay and productivity is larger for women who will have children within the next three years compared to other women."
The author is a woman, so that means feminists can't dismiss the facts and arguments with their usual sexism

The effect of maternity leave extensions on firms and coworkers - "While a large literature is devoted to understanding the impact of maternity leave on children's outcomes and the careers of women, less is known about the consequences of maternity leave at the workplace. This paper studies the effects of maternity leave on firms and coworkers by examining a 2002 Danish reform which increased the length of parental leave by 22 weeks. The timing of the policy change gives random variation in the length of leave available to women who gave birth around the time of the reform. I find no detectable effect of the reform on the earnings or promotions of coworkers in any of the five years after the reform (point estimates are about $100) and can reject differences in yearly earnings larger than $425 overall and differences larger than $280 for female coworkers. While there are some costs for coworkers in the same occupation as women who give birth in the sample period, these costs are 1-1.5 percent of earnings. I also find evidence that the reform increases the probability of firm shut-down by about two percentage points five years after the reform, concentrated among relatively small firms. Conditional on survival, I find no impact of the reform on firm value added."
You can't legislate productivity. Someone has to pay the piper. Of course, according to liberals, the system is rigged in favour of big companies

The Long-Run Effects of Wage Replacement and Job Protection: Evidence from Two Maternity Leave Reforms in Great Britain - "This paper examines the effects of maternity leave coverage on women’s employment and career trajectories in Great Britain using data from the British Household Panel Survey. Using a difference-in-differences identification strategy and two changes to the national maternity leave policy, I distinguish between the effects of expanding access to wage replacement benefits and the additional effects of providing job protection benefits. Access to paid maternity leave increases the probability of returning to work after childbirth in the short run, but has no effect on long-run employment. Expanding the amount of job protection available to new mothers results in substantial increases in maternal employment rates and job tenure more than five years later. However, job protected leave expansions lead to fewer women holding management positions and other jobs with the potential for promotion. Although these maternity leave policies have large employment effects on the extensive margin, there is little evidence of effects on average earnings."

Not him, too | The Spectator - "Over a drink recently I sat next to a man who announced, barely before he’d taken his first sip, that he was a feminist. ‘Like you,’ he added ingratiatingly.  Like me?!?  Poor sap. Did he imagine that this creepy statement would actually endear me to him? That I admired his courageous stand and was prepared to hang on his every word? Not a bit of it. From that moment, I despised him.  Firstly, I’m no feminist and never have been. Like Mary Wollstonecraft, I’m an equal-but-differentist, or would be if such a thing existed. And I have no desire to get my own back on women’s oppressors, if indeed, today, in western society, they are oppressors. I’ve never experienced them as such. I come from a family of women who endlessly smashed their way through the glass ceiling. My mother was completely self-sufficient — a professor — as were my not-over--privileged great-aunts, one a surgeon in Delhi in the early 1900s, with her sisters variously a doctor, a headmistress and a mathematician.  Of course there are women all over the world who have been and still are being cruelly oppressed. Young girls are forced into prostitution by male sex gangs (but there again, so are young boys). In the Middle East there is an entirely patriarchal society, criticism of which frequently prompts defensive references to ‘cultural differences’ — an excuse that’s never wheeled out for the benefit of white working-class men... there are men who have been completely cowed and often terrified by their womenfolk. Data from the Crime Survey for England and Wales show that men make up about 35 per cent of domestic abuse victims each year... There are three reasons men declare themselves feminists. Firstly, they’re frightened... There’s another category of men who simply hate themselves. Little do they know how unattractive this is to women as they announce, thinking they’re being honest, that they’re actually loathsome, vile human beings, horrible people who can’t help thinking about sex all the time, slimy abusive toads, worthless fantasists who, if it weren’t illegal, would, at the drop of a hat, love to be popping out from behind bushes to assault passing women. They go along with the idea that men are the oppressor class, attributing collective guilt to an entire category of human beings. And we all know where that kind of thinking leads. And finally, there are the ones who declare themselves feminists in order to establish male superiority. They know we’re weak and vulnerable, and they want to take care of us and protect — all of this with the deeply patronising assumption we need protecting... Speaking personally, from my youth onwards, I, like many of my contemporaries, felt extremely pleased to be wolf-whistled in the street and I’ve always walked even taller after the merest mutter of appreciation. Rather than stop men wolf-whistling at women, what about encouraging women to wolf-whistle at men?... Of course we want to be loved for our hearts and minds. But to be appreciated as a sexual object — why not? Admiration is always welcome. The more the merrier.  We women are quite powerful enough not to need men to protect us, like princesses in fairy tales. The reason some men have taken up the feminist cause is precisely because latter-day feminists actually espouse an anti-feminist movement, because in defining women as ‘victims’ or ‘vulnerable’, they infantilise them, making them out to be like characters in a Victorian novel.  No wonder some men want to join them."

Thread by @KnowlandKnows on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "Over 1,500 societies have existed.  Here's what feminism has got wrong about all of them:
’Defining matriarchy as the mirror image of patriarchy, I would conclude that no matriarchal society has ever existed.'  - Gerda Lerner, 'The Creation of Patriarchy' (OUP, 1986), p.31
This is because patriarchy serves women and children best... In no society has the role of caring for small infants been mainly male... women are the limiting factor in reproduction, giving them POWER.
Everywhere sex is something that females have that males want.’  - Symons, 'The Evolution of Human Sexuality' (OUP, 1979), p.253.
Female prostitution is ubiquitous.  Male prostitutes usually end up servicing homosexuals. As Darwin said, ‘males are almost always the wooers’.  Hence nuptial gifts are common in nature.  Males have to give something.  But the female IS the gift.
Women are much less likely than men to engage in
- 'sex' with animals
- 'sex' with inanimate objects
- homosexuality...
 Monogamy isn't about men oppressing women.  Being the limiting factor in reproduction lets women choose their preferred mating strategy.  And it’s always monogamy. The idea that oppressive males at the top of ‘the patriarchy’ would suppress female sexuality makes no sense.  They would be the ones women would be likely to cheat on their partners with. FGM, veiling and foot-binding are mainly inflicted on women by women.  By suppressing female sexuality, women maintain a chronic shortage and hence high prices. The more a society attempts to drift away from patriarchy, ironically the less control of men women have... The more radical feminism seeks freedom from family for women, the more they free men from the provider role... s Betty Friedan pointed out, feminists *underestimated* the power of the women’s sphere.  Ultimately, feminism is misogyny because the only power it values is male power.  It tells little girls to follow their dreams - UNLESS that involves being a housewife."

Gender Gaps at the Academies - "Historically, a large majority of the newly elected members of the National Academy of Science (NAS) and the American Academy of Arts and Science (AAAS) were men. Within the past two decades, however, that situation has changed, and in the last 3 years women made up about 40 percent of the new members in both academies. We build lists of active scholars from publications in the top journals in three fields – Psychology, Mathematics and Economics – and develop a series of models to compare changes in the probability of selection of women as members of the NAS and AAAS from the 1960s to today, controlling for publications and citations. In the early years of our sample, women were less likely to be selected as members than men with similar records. By the 1990s, the selection process at both academies was approximately gender-neutral, conditional on publications and citations. In the past 20 years, however, a positive preference for female members has emerged and strengthened in all three fields. Currently, women are 3-15 times more likely to be selected as members of the AAAS and NAS than men with similar publication and citation records."
Paul Hünermund on Twitter - "I teach in my causal inference class that you shouldn't condition on post-treatment variables (here: publications and citations) to determine gender gaps. But 3–15 times seems high to be explained purely by differences in ability (endogenous sorting)."

Dr. Jane Clare Jones 🦕 on Twitter - "FFS - I am reading one of the foundational sex denialists texts and they are actually arguing that humans can't be distinguishing between men and women on the basis of secondary sexual characteristics because they are "far from being dichotomous, at least when compared to those markers in other species (e.g., plumage in birds)." (Kessler and McKenna)  So because peacocks are REALLY different from peahens humans couldn't have evolved to very easily distinguish between the sexes OF THEIR OWN SPECIES.  U-huh. Here it is: 'Everyone must pretend sex doesn't exist or we wont be able to get rid of gender oppression because we cannot conceive of a difference that doesn't produce a hierarchy." YOU DANGEROUS FUCKING IDIOTS."
Neil Garratt AM on Twitter - "My experience as a parent is that children can tell men from women from an incredibly young age. Eg the classic extension of "mummy" to mean "woman" and "daddy" to mean "man", among their very first words c. 1 year old. No one really teaches children this distinction, not at that age, it appears to be intuitive. I wonder if there's any research to identify at what age and with what accuracy children distinguish? I feel it's "before 2 and high"."

Why computer voices are mostly female - "Scientific studies have shown that people generally find women’s voices more pleasing than men’s.  “It’s much easier to find a female voice that everyone likes than a male voice that everyone likes,” said Stanford University Professor Clifford Nass, author of “The Man Who Lied to His Laptop: What Machines Teach Us About Human Relationships.” “It’s a well-established phenomenon that the human brain is developed to like female voices.” Research suggests this preference starts as early as the womb, Nass said. He cites a study in which fetuses were found to react to the sound of their mother’s voice but not to other female voices. The fetuses showed no distinct reaction to their father’s voice, however...   When automakers were first installing automated voice prompts in cars (“your door is ajar”) decades ago, their consumer research found that people overwhelmingly preferred female voices to male ones, said Tim Bajarin, a Silicon Valley analyst and president of Creative Strategies Inc.  This may explain why in almost all GPS navigation systems on the market, the default voice is female. One notable exception has been Germany, where BMW was forced to recall a female-voiced navigation system on its 5 Series cars in the late 1990s after being flooded with calls from German men saying they refused to take directions from a woman...   Look no further than examples of automated or artificial-intelligence voices in sci-fi movies and TV shows. Voices of authority or menace tend to be male: the homicidal HAL 9000 computer in “2001: A Space Odyssey,” the computer program in “WarGames,” or Auto, the spaceship’s autopilot function in “Wall-E.” More subservient talking machines, such as the onboard computer from the “Star Trek” TV series, skew female... transit systems such as the San Francisco Area’s BART often use higher-pitched voices because they are easier to hear over the clatter of the train cars."
The power of "patriarchy"!

6 Reasons Most People Trust a Female Voice Over Male Voices - "Female voices were deemed the most trustworthy...
Pitch: The higher pitch of the female voice instilled more confidence in listeners than the lower-pitched male. One super-low-pitched male voice was overwhelming voted the least trustworthy of all.
Inflection: Female voices that dropped at the end of a word or phrase indicated a degree of certainty, something that made people automatically trust them.
A recent Harris Interactive poll found 46 percent of participants ranked female voices more soothing than male voices...   The clear, melodic nature of the female voice can also play a role in the trust it instills, as can the fact that female and male voices are processed in different parts of the brain... People are more inclined to trust, and follow, women CEOs over male CEOs. They are also more inclined to buy from those they trust, and they trust women sales people over their male colleagues"

Agatha had taken issue with a booklet given out to all students, which had lines such as "guys are all out for one thing", and girls "need to feel loved". Said Mrs Koh-Hoe: "It's unfortunate that what was meant to be a light-hearted workshop to engage students was taken out of context and misinterpreted."  She added that the particular section of the booklet Agatha had taken issue with was meant to "help participants understand more about the opposite sex, so they are better equipped to communicate and interact with them."  Hwa Chong students had also rated that part as the most helpful section of the workshop...   While Focus on the Family Singapore is a pro-family Christian charity, Mrs Koh-Hoe said the relationship workshop was developed to "ensure it carries no religious content"."

Analysis: Minneapolis schools racial layoff policy will have trouble withstanding legal challenges - "A new Minneapolis Public Schools policy that would protect teachers of color from layoffs despite seniority is being challenged in court.  That policy was part of the new teacher's union contract and has sparked national interest.  Constitutional experts tell KARE 11 news that this policy, which explicitly involves race-based decisions made by a government entity, will have trouble standing up in court. But it might not be the lawsuit that overturns it.   After striking for three weeks in March, when Minneapolis teachers and the district reached a new contract agreement, they announced protections for teachers of color.  During district-wide layoffs, the new contract says "teachers who are members of underrepresented populations" are "exempted" from the last-hired, first-fired approach. That means a white teacher with more seniority would be laid off instead... Now a lawsuit claims the provision violates the state's Equal Protection Guarantee — Minnesota's version of the U.S. Constitution's racial discrimination clause in the 14th Amendment — and asks a Hennepin County judge to stop Minneapolis schools from implementing it...   The teacher contract included language anticipating legal challenges. It states the purpose of the policy is to "remedy the continuing effects of past discrimination by the District."  But Hasday says the courts would need actual legal claims of past racial discrimination."

People of color at 'New York Times' get lower ratings in job reviews, union says - "An analysis of comprehensive data for roughly 1,000 The New York Times employees conducted by members of the union that represents its newsroom found that Black and Latino staffers are far less likely than their white peers to receive strong job ratings.  There are financial consequences to job ratings because they influence the size of employee bonuses, the NewsGuild union says. But staffers tell NPR the differential is even more important because it indicates an underlying systemic problem that the paper is failing to address. It is demoralizing, they say, and contributes to the premature departure of some colleagues... white workers were consistently assessed as outperforming their peers.
Clearly, even woke bastions are extremely racist. This cannot possibly have anything to do with real performance

Column: Why do Mexican Americans defend Speedy Gonzales? - Los Angeles Times - "Speedy turned into a pariah in the decades after his heyday, placed by Hollywood executives and pundits in the same racist purgatory of Old Hollywood as Stepin Fetchit, “We don’t need no steenkin’ badges,” and Charlie Chan. ABC banned him from its airwaves during the 1980s “because the title character presents a stereotypical image that is not offset by any other Latino television characters,” according to a 1981 Los Angeles Times story. The Cartoon Network did the same in the late 1990s. Recently, New York Times columnist Charles Blow said Speedy cartoons “helped popularize the corrosive stereotype of the drunk and lethargic Mexicans.”  And yet time and time again, Mexicans — the very group you’d think would hate Speedy the most — rose to defend his honor. During the 1990s, college students cast Speedy as a proto-Zapatista who fought against American imperialism before it was cool to do so. In 2002, the League of United Latin American Citizens asked the Cartoon Network to free Speedy from his jail — a spokesperson told Fox News, “How far do you push political correctness before you can’t say anything about anything anymore?” In the wake of Blow’s columns, Mexicans famous and not spoke out on social media against those who dared decry their man. “U can’t catch me cancel culture. I’m the fastest mouse in all of Mexico,” tweeted comedian Gabriel Iglesias, who’s voicing Speedy in the upcoming “Space Jam” reboot. “We LOVE Speedy because he’s smart and fast,” wrote Eugenio Derbez, another comic who will voice him in his upcoming Speedy feature... He danced our dances and dressed like a jarocho (a native of Veracruz) and sounded like my country cousins, to be honest. He was the only Mexican in Hollywood I knew who never lost — well, him and Cheech and Chong.  I love Speedy so much, I keep a large painting of him in my home office. His kind smile and brown skin takes me back to my childhood — and reminds me of where we as Mexicans exist today... Mexican American animators worked on nearly half of the 47 Speedy Gonzales shorts, at a time where they were a rarity in Hollywood. In Latin America, audiences continue to love Speedy with little compunction because they accept him at face value — a Mexican mouse who makes a mockery out of Yankee pussygatos again and again. “That’s not an excuse or a justification for ‘Oh, well if a Mexican American did something problematic, it, it’s all fine”"
Minorities have no voice and need white liberals to speak for them

Cancel Speedy Gonzales? Not so fast, Latinos say - "In 1999, Speedy Gonzales was banned from the Cartoon Network after it decided the cartoon was too offensive and reinforced negative Mexican stereotypes like speaking in a heavy accent and wearing a sombrero. The network reinstated him three years later after fan outrage.   The League of United Latin American Citizens, a Latino anti-discrimination organization, helped get Speedy back on the air after Cartoon Network shelved him.   “In Mexico we grew up watching Speedy Gonzales,” Eugenio Derbez, told Deadline at the time. “He was like a superhero to us, or maybe more like a revolucionario like Simón Bolívar or Pancho Villa.”...   Speedy Gonzales was always the underdog hero, zooming around helping hungry Mexican mice get to cheese guarded by Sylvester, the gringo cat. Sylvester is constantly outsmarted and humiliated by the clever, funny, little mouse."

Liz Truss to appoint cabinet featuring no white men in four great offices of state - "The new Prime Minister’s likely top team is also being described as the most right-wing government in a century. Ms Truss is expected to make long-term ally, neighbour and Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng her Chancellor. If that happens, he would be the fourth non-white occupant of that office in a row, following Sajid Javid, Rishi Sunak and Nadhim Zahawi. Attorney General Suella Braverman is poised to move to the Home Office and James Cleverly to the Foreign Office – the two other traditional great offices of state.  Ms Braverman would become the third ethnic minority Home Secretary, after Priti Patel, who quit last night, and Mr Javid."
Clearly evidence of the power of white patriarchy. Of course this won't stop the grievance mongers

POC HOUSE GUEST RULES"
Berkeley co-op Person of Color Theme House bans white guests from common spaces - "Students move into the POC house ‘to be able to avoid white violence and presence,’ rules state  White guests are banned from the common spaces at the Person of Color House...   Under a section labeled “Guests in Common Spaces,” it states: “Guests are allowed in common spaces but please be mindful if there are house members in the room beforehand. White guests are not allowed in common spaces (see intro).”  The POC House intro states in part that many members moved in “to be able to avoid white violence and presence.” When students do bring a guest, the rules direct them to announce it in the house guest chat and note “if they are white.”  But it’s not just white guests who are unwelcome.  “Avoid bringing parents/family members that express bigotry,” the rules continue. “Queer, Black, and Indigenous members should not have to avoid common spaces because of homophobic or racist parents/family members.” The Person of Color Theme House, a five-story, 30-room home that can accommodate up to 56 students, exists to serve “low-income, first generation, immigrant and marginalized students of color.”  It’s part of the Berkeley Student Cooperative, a nonprofit housing cooperative established to provide affordable housing to Bay-area college students.  Since it was established in 2016, the POC house has faced its share of internal problems.  One former member wrote in a Medium article that the house has become known for its “call-out culture” perpetuated by “the lack of intersectionality.”  “Several members have been criticized for being white/white passing, aligning themselves with whiteness, or allowing white violence in the house”...   The official BSC anti-discrimination policy states that access to residential facilities may not be restricted on the basis of “age, color, disability, gender, height, marital status, national origin, political persuasion, race, religion, sexual orientation, veteran status or weight.”"

Facebook - "Nigeria wants to keep its attention on its homegrown talent as far as TV commercials are concerned, which is why they are said to be banning foreign models from appearing in televised adverts and voiceover work. The decision was made after a previous study revealed how foreign talent had quite literally dominated the advertising market — but the country is now hoping to rectify this by only allowing its own kind to front upcoming commercial projects.
___________________________________________
Steve Babaeko, who is Nigeria’s President of the Association of Advertising Agencies, expressed to The Sunday Times, “Britons accounted for about half of models and voiceover artists in Nigerian commercials a couple of decades ago.” British accents, in particular, had led most of the market up until recent years where more Nigerian locals were hired to front TV commercials.
_____________________________________________
But starting this October, as part of the “policy of developing local talent,” foreign models and voiceover artists will no longer be featured in TV ads. Furthermore, Babaeko believes that there has been “some kind of renaissance” in the country that has seen a lot of rising talent emerge, particularly among young people. With that in mind, Babeko added, “There are about 200 million of us. Are you telling me you could not find indigenous models for this commercial?”"

The ‘World’s Largest Bookstore’ Gets Into the Censorship Business - "Just a week ago, I received an email from Ryan Anderson, who was recently tapped to lead the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C., and who wrote When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment for me at Encounter Books back in 2018. A reader who had tried to order his book from Amazon reported he was unable to find the book listed on the site. I looked myself and, yes, that reader was correct. Other books by Anderson are listed, as are various books on the “transgender” phenomenon, including a now out-of-print title that purports to rebut When Harry Became Sally. But the book itself is nowhere to be found... It was not just that a book that had been listed and sold by Amazon for the last three years was “out of stock” or “unavailable.” It had disappeared without a trace, more or less like Nikolai Yezhov standing next to Josef Stalin in that notorious photo by the Moscow Canal. One day he is seen smiling next to the great leader. The next day he is gone, airbrushed from history... We’ve heard a lot about “cancel culture” recently. Here was the latest example. The delisting, without any sort of warning, notice, or explanation of a serious, well-regarded book because . . . because, why? After multiple inquiries, we were informed that the book was removed because it violated Amazon’s new “content guidelines” against “offensive” material or “hate speech.”  Not for the first time, I was reminded that the wokerati of Big Tech and Big Media have become drunk with power and, emboldened by the Democratic sweep of the levers of power, have begun to regard Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four as a how-to manual instead of what it is, a scarifying warning about the dangers of totalitarianism.   Amazon, which presides over more than 80 percent of the book sales in the United States, decides to erase a book, ostensibly because it violates a nebulous policy regarding offensive content but really because it violates today’s standard of political correctness. After all, Amazon has no problem selling Mein Kampf, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, or the lunatic, anti-Semitic ravings of Louis Farrakhan. I very much doubt that whoever made the decision to remove When Harry Became Sally from Amazon is a secret admirer of the book, but I did wonder. The immediate effect of the ban was to spark a run on the book. We instantly sold out of the 2,000 copies we had in stock and, as of this writing, we have orders for some 3,000 more.   If Amazon hoped to bury the book, they made a big mistake...   At times, it seems surreal. February is Black History Month, but Amazon nevertheless decided to cancel Michael Pack’s award-winning documentary about Justice Clarence Thomas because Thomas, although black, is apparently not the right sort of black... I will end with another observation from George Orwell. “If liberty means anything at all,” he wrote, “it means the right to tell people things they do not want to hear.”"
