I admit, I'm honestly not sure at this point whether you're being serious or just baiting me. If you're having me on, well done; I totally walked into this one.

If you are being serious, I apologize for doubting you, and offer this research study as one (among many) examples of how professional fields do, in fact, impose a heavier burden upon women, in the form of less representation in the workforce and lower rates of compensation.

Here's another:

And just in case you missed it, here's one example (of many) of plenty of men "whining" about being "discriminated" against:

Look, you've obviously got a chip on your shoulder that's larger than I can assist in removing. I could easily tear apart your alleged 'studies' as I did Psych research for several years (and won a gender discrimination case against my female Professor, so I know a little about that subject), and I know how statistics and studies are manipulated to provide a desired outcome. Funny how the only 'example' you could link about male whining was anecdotal, while the reverse is always Government funded, yet you still cling to your outdated notion that 'sexism' is systemic. But, then, like Babs, if you ever had to take responsibility for your own actions, and couldn't blame 'Society', then a certain comfort level would no longer exist, and that has to be frightening.

	Frightening, indeed. I'm curious how you could tear apart these alleged "studies"; it's true, of course, that statistics and studies can be manipulated to provide a desired outcome, but if you're throwing out all statistical evidence that denies your position as biased, I'm curious to know what you're basing your position on, outside of anecdotal evidence.
