    Re:The gender pay gap - does it really exist?


    Just wondering why the guys haven't commented on Marc's article yet.

    Are you all writing to the editor complaining that there was further bias?

    I think that everything that needs to be said has been said.

    Marc's article was well-written, balanced and informative.

    I think opinion amongst the male contributors here was very much divided anyway so I don't think Marc's article has added anything to the debate on here.

    Still haven't received my magazine yet. You know what the Royal Mail's like don't you Helen?!

    At least this thread encouraged some debate - healthy or otherwise - which was it's main purpose...

    Sorry - just looking for someone that specialises in breaking legs.

    :wink:

    Edit: just found a business in Sussex that does.

    You must have seen our advert in the Yellow Pages then?

    "Double glazing, conservatories and bloody good hidings for non-payers..."

    That one?

    Beats fly fishing for a lark.

    Is that a picture of you on the website?

    The one of the bloke wearing ear defenders so he can't hear the other one screaming with pain?

    I'd never wear ear defenders - I want to savour every last crunch... Do I look like I have a friendly face?

    And this probably isn't the best thread either to talk about inflicting damage on fleeing debtors...

    Re:The gender pay gap - does it really exist?

    Which thread do you think would be better suited then? :?

    Have I missed the "how to break a debtor's legs" thread - I need some tips, as still waiting for a SA to pay up from mid January :evil:

    It's all turned a little brutal.

    All I did was invite comment about Marc's article and typical 'blokes' start getting brutal and blobbish.

    The Umgah are blobbish creatures consisting of three main body parts: mouths, eyes and tentacles. Their heightened sensory appendages do not compensate for an appearance which, in the words of a tired SSRII syntho-reconstructionist, "gives the VUX a run for their starbucks."

    I rest my case.

    Edit: Sorry, I mis-read one of the words in the description, but it still applies.

    God and you reckon us blokes are geeks... how on earth did you know that? Definitely too long in those arcades as a wee girl Claudia...

    Might come in handy if we're ever attacked by aliens though. You could always hit 'em with the frying pan to get back on topic... :wink:

    Surely women don't need dusters with the tremendous amount of time they spend with their mouths open spewing hot air out? It never gets a chance to settle before it's blown away...

    You know, that article has really revealed everyone's true colours hasn't it?

    Mandy, Claudia and myself are all happy, successful, articulate women that are a force to be reckoned with.

    Others - aren't!

    Keep posting Robert and we'll keep coming back!

    Typical women - criticise me all day long but once I'm not around anymore you run out of intelligent conversation...
