I speak as a guy in his late 20s. It seems like most women my age have their **** togther; good jobs; lots of friends; structured, vibrant lives. On the other hand, it seems like most men are lost. They can't find meaningful employment, can't think of anything useful to do with their time, bum around with no plan for the future. Is it safe to say we live in a lost generation of men? It's like society doesn't have a use for most men anymore. Is it time for another war to kill off the surplus men?

Regulus recently moved from Leo into Virgo, where it will be for the next approximately 2000 years.

Um...do women earn equal pay for equal work?

No?

Then the answer to your thread question is no.

What year do you think this is, carter? Women are also the ones doing the hiring. And who do you think puts up all those colorful labor posters in the kitchenette?

They get paid for LESS work. Woman are the ones who are leaving early to pick up kids, take to doctor, etc and leaving projects for others to pick up the slack.

Yeah, darn it, women having kids is a real drag on the workplace. Maybe women should stop having babies altogether. Then all the world's problems could be solved in one generation.

Sounds like a plan.
