And, Korea is the only place that buys into that?



I still say, if women truly want equal treatment, there would be no consequences when a man bitch slaps one. If women truly wanted equal opportunity, they (American women at least...disgusting creatures) would demand that they be forced to register with the Selective Service.

I don't see that happening. Demanding equal opportunity and still hiding behind double standards is quite comfortable for them.

In fact, American women are ONE of the reasons of the downfall of America....but that is another topic.


All in all, Korea has its social order. If you don't like it....you know what to do.


100 PERCENT agree

And, more importantly, it is YOUR business and should hire as you see fit.

I do find it comforting, unlike America, there are still places in the world where one can choose whom to hire, fire and do business with, without having to worry about being sued.


Thank You

Yes, it's comforting that I don't have to worry about being sued by an affirmative action committee or someone that says the only reason I didn't hire them was because of their age, etc, nonsense.

Well, the little pink mafia does not hold sway in Korea.


It is a bit frustrating at times, as I am older but...it is what it is.


Unlike another poster, most of us have no need to fill out a butthurt report form.

If you were hiring who would you choose? The young hottie with sparkly eyes and a degree in English? The old tub of lard with crow's feet under her eyes and a degree in English?

As much as we don't like to admit it, looks are important to us. If a man has a choice he will generally choose a sexy average biscuit cooking gf/wife over a homely blue ribbon biscuit cooking gf/wife. Will a 20 year old woman choose the handsome chiseled chin driving instructor for driving lessons or will she choose the double chin, beer belly driving instructor?

This thread is about ageist sexists, not an invitation for them to make a guest appearance.

Indeed.

Perhaps the little pink mafia is accepting butt-hurt memo's?

Though, I do have a question. Do you apply your warped maxims to working environments that traditionally hire women and clearly outnumber men..if any? Do you jump on the desk of the hiring manager and demand to know why there are not enough, or any, men working there?



(Go ahead ahead and opine on women not having to register with the Selective Service in the U.S.)
