quade 4 #6 December 23, 2003 What the article fails to mention is the distribution and levels of management. The information age has created a lot of lower and middle management jobs with some companies creating "salaried" positions instead of hourly (read eligible for overtime) positions. If women fill a lot of these positions, it would look as if the glass ceiling has been shattered, when in fact it might not really mean that much when it comes to the actual salaries or balance of power. The article is, in my opinion, an example of fairly lazy journalism.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 2,070 #10 December 23, 2003 Women have been attending and graduating from college in greater numbers than men for some years now, so it was inevitable.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vonSanta 0 #11 December 24, 2003 Yep, pretty soon we'll fight for Men's Rights. Masculinists will be frowned upon and ridiculed, including by males who've been brainwashed by women into doing so. We gotta fight this while we can. End Women's Suffrage NOW! Santa Von GrossenArsch I only come in one flavour ohwaitthatcanbemisunderst Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dbattman 0 #14 December 24, 2003 People will sign whatever you hand them on the street. Some college student did that for his honors thesis and had all these students sign petitions that, in essence, called the universtiy administration a bunch of incompetent losers (among other things).
