A few questions for feminists

[ConservativeV8]

1. Why is feminism so small in number? They get plenty of airtime but it isn't catching on. Women know about it so why no support?

1. Feminists want equality of opportunity and equality of outcome but how can you have both when it's impossible? You want to give women choice, but then want exactly 50% of men and women in each industry. This can only be achieved by forcing women (and men) to do jobs they don't want to or choose to do. Explain?

1. Why do you think the earnings difference is due to gender when time and time again it has been shown it has nothing or very little to do with it. Why feminists not take into account the 40 or so factors which affect earnings, such as men are more likely to work longer hours, do more overtime, take less holidays, work more dangerous jobs, willing to relocate, willing to commute further, etc etc?

Please discuss.

When I was in the MRI they made me listen to Katy Perry...

But on the plus side, they had you down, but you got up!

No admin girls coming over to me and flirting

Why does your mother need admin girls in her basement?

Do they not find it cramped to be doing admin with all the Warhammer models and star trek uniforms in the way?

Does the strong smell of cheese and onion crisps not bother them?

Women! Stop chatting amongst yourselves and answer my excellent points!

I got Fleetwood Mac, but really quiet and I couldn't hear over the MRI which was even more anxiety inducing.

I wish the OP had been allowed to stay. Feminism is a broad church. If you believe women should have the right to vote and equal pay, you’re a feminist. It’s a broad church. I count myself as a gender critical radical feminist and there’s really nothing radical about it. I don’t support the Nordic Model (wont bore you with the reasons here), so am less than the ideal feminist, but I reckon most of us are, even if we don’t like the title.
Which I do, very much.

Always has conservative in his username. Which is super considerate of him. But yes, there are many basement dwellers.
I thought it was the Midnight Misogynist mistaking the time zone and had my Lemon Curd all ready to paste. Recipes give him the rage.

That is the meets minimum standards of decent human being definition.
Feminism is a political movement and not a cult or a church.

Feminism, despite years of backlash, is still the political movement for the liberation of women.

Of course Deadringer, back to the important issues.

Would you rather live in an amusement park or live in a zoo?

I'm intrigued - I thought there was only one way to make lemon curd. Know you of some special variation? I usually manage to scramble the eggs because I'm too impatient to wait for the mixture to cool down before I add them.

Definitely a zoo. I can't go on amusement park rides any more because I am old and they upset my stomach. Whereas with a zoo, I could make friends with the red pandas and be accepted as one of their own.

I looooooooove the recipes, they're always fantastic ones. I need more lemon curd in my life!

Thanks Clara for extending tea time a bit on a boring day

That's alright, I'm still trying to decide whether I want to be eaten by a grizzly bear or a squished by a giant snake. The big questions in life.

You are Simon Quinlank and I claim my £5 prize. Am I right?

Do you think he's gone quiet because he's gone to prepare a flask of weak lemon drink?

At this time of night? With his bladder? I don't know Eoin but Red Pandas are adorable, much nicer than grizzly bears and pythons.

Is the python eating you head or feet first?

Please post your lemon curd recipe again Bewilderness I was on a thread a long time ago when you posted it but before I could archive it the thread was deleted.
I have an aversion to lemon curd in a jar, ever since my mother scraped a layer of mould from the surface and expected us to eat it, so a homemade recipe would be very useful.

Annabelle Karmel has a great orange and lemon polenta cake in her book for fussy eaters.

I have been scouring the shelves in discount bookstores for The Midnight Misogynist's Cookbook: Recipes I Learned From Feminists because he has surely had enough over the years.

I picture him with his laptop, formatting ingredients in bullet point format in his manuscript, and realizing he needs more for the 'One Pot' section, so he C&Ps his usual devastatingly clever opener and sits eagerly with pen and paper to glean our culinary wisdom.

He's probably taking so long to finish the book because copying down recipes takes longer when you're habitually only able to use your left hand to write them down.

PertElla they tend to eat you head first so your limbs don't inconveniently bend the wrong way and snag on the way down. Pythons aren't very bright even by snake standards, though, so it's not a given that you would avoid the horror of being consumed from the feet up.

I do! You go from the other direction.

Easy fruit curd
cream 8-12 oz caster sugar with 6oz butter until light and fluffy. add 3 eggs one at a time. The amount of sugar depends on the sweetness of the fruit juice. 12 oz for lemon, 8 for raspberry.
If you intend to use this for a cake you need to bloom 1 teaspoon of gelatin and set aside.
Add 4oz of fruit juice and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to egg mixture then cook and slow and low stirring often to 190*. I use the mixer bowl over a pan of water but a heavy sauce pan works fine. Add the bloomed gelatin at the end. Pour into storage jars and let sit at room temp for a while before refrigerating. Makes about 20-24 oz.

190 F is 87.7 C

Oh Clara, you’re not really going to delete this thread, are you? With all these wonderful recipes on? Pleeeeeeease keep it. Even if you have to lock it.

Eoin I want to make friends with the red pandas too. So cute.
