The key to healthy industry involvement is parents having money to pay for education and the choice to buy whatever education they wish. Industry should have a profit motivation to attract students. Between 6 and 20 thousand are spent per kid in the public school system (http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2014/05/23/heres-how-much-each-state-spends-on-public-school-students/) I didn't read the link I'm just looking for a ball park. I'm guessing that enough money to motivate service providers to get in the game.
It's a dream come true, I'd actually have businesses competing for my kids to be in their schools. It's practically utopic. I don't see any obvious problems save for tremendous impact that would have on public school employees because a lot of them would be fired. (And to be fair, mostly because of this it will never ever ever happen.)
Industry should not be getting in to lower their labor costs, or at least the public should not facilitate that.
I agree with your first point and second part (though I don't use the word sexism but get what you mean). And with the first part of your third. And while I do believe it legitimate for Government to ban given forms of unjustified discrimination in given domains, such as employment, I do not believe the Government should be investigating or doing anything about about given fields being more or less socially welcoming to genders or race for that matter, though to be fair you didn't mention Government. I'm not a small Government advocate but I do strongly believe the Government stay out of Social engineering as such.
fair enough, I agree with that, too. just complicates things a bit cause what's to stop a bad or extremely needy parent from pocketing the cash. I don't like tests and curricular requirements. To be fair, I haven't thought this out, I just know that I like the idea, and hate the public school system.
This again. You have to be Superman or Superwoman or be married to Superwoman or Superman (all bases covered!) or be a lesser hero married to another lesser hero to make enough money to support a family and Government and Industry are *worried* about gender distribution in a particular field of industry.
Either we live in Kafka Land or the real interests aren't being disclosed. Both may be true. Or maybe the real problems are truly intractable and this what our betters come up with to keep busy.
How about this. End public schools. Give a voucher for every child and let the parents decide where to spend it. Don't oversee anything. If parents want to send their children to donald duck academy then more power to them.Government shall accredit any 'school' on which the child is on site for what are now normal school hours. That will give you the opportunity to send your kid to math academy or whatever else you think is valuable. It would also encourage schools nobody ever thought of before. Industry could actually play a vital role (Disney cartoonist academy?) Haven't thought this out, really, but what is clear is none of the issues will be bettered without major change, and I deeply wish for once in memory to see even one major change in the direction of personal sovereignty.
Actually in my experience reading emails, the opposite is true, for when I know whether the sender is male or female. That may because woman are more emotional while men are more intellectual. [this double plus un-good though crime has been reported, comrade -- MOT)]
It is isn't hatred of woman (misogyny) to hold that woman are different in important respects and are sometimes suited for different roles as general rule. Maybe that view is sexist (never heard the word defined, honestly) but then reality is sexist and we a need a another word to describe unjust unequal treatment on the basis of gender.
And even if you are of the 'gender is a social construct or personal preference point of view, though to be fair I've never met anyone who thought former, you'd still need a different word to describe unjust unequal treatment on the basis of gender from the very view that the genders are different in important respects and are sometimes suited for different roles as a general, if you wish to differentiate between wrong doing and thought crime.
Fuck you. I am not of that kind but know enough of them to deny any logical right to assert on the basis of your black soul, that they are as they are if only they could be. No doubt there exists in set of radical christian some member who would kill if they could get away with but that is true of almost any set of people and if that's all you meant then your comment is irrelevant to this thread. What you meant is that the radical christians are the same murderous demons as are the radical muslims but lack for opportunity. Fuck you.
on of the few actually insightful comments here, I come for the interesting, insight I get elsewhere. But you will stay at zero cause mod systems say more about the modders than the content though they say something about the content too, and I've no mod points.
it got modded up because anybody who says watching porn is normal will get tons of Slashdot love. It's normal because *everybody* does it except for those that don't.
I hear you. A society not heavily based on the family unit is dysfunctional to my understanding and observation, and I may well be overlooking my own advantages. Still though, at base, I do not believe that it is any sort of difficult thing, this relating to the the opposite gender thing of which you speak -- you just find the one with whom you build your family and get to know each other. The others you treat professionally, without reference to their sexuality.
I respect but cannot speak to your personal experience, not because I don't believe that a valid means of securing knowledge about the world, for indeed, I hold it to the basic, but because I simply don't know enough about the experience and the context to make any sort of judgement.
I come from a large culture where schools are separate. We do fine in the work world, we relate well to people and we marry as a norm and have many kids. I submit that adolescent mingling hurts male, female relations. Not only do the dynamics of a mixed work place radically differ from those of a mixed workplace, but to the extent that they converge, the workplace is dysfunctional. Hey she's hot, got a pick!
I hear you. Not all men, certainly not, but some men, yes, so the woman has to use judgement, if her judgement is good, she's more likely to avoid problems, if it's not, she less likely. And yes, if she does not hang out with men in private, she isn't intimate with here chances of being raped decline precipitously. Fault is not binary and I'm thinking you know that already (here's where I insert a set of analogies that are either obvious or straw-men, so I'll spare you:) A woman can do what she whatever she wants, but there are associated risks.
Well, yes, a woman should not hang out in private with a man, that she is not intimate with, if she wants to be completely safe. That makes sense. Don't know what happened with Kobe Bryant, but do you thing it was wise for that lady to go into a hotel room with him, with no expectation of intimacy. It's a dangerous world, the best way to navigate it is through wise behavior. It really is that simple.

ok, sorry, I was speaking to your words not your point.
I suspect he is a man, yes. what does that have to do with my post?

Very good. Get your prize, speak your mind.
It is isn't hatred of woman (misogyny) to hold that woman are different in important respects and are sometimes suited for different roles as general rule. Maybe that view is sexist (never heard the word defined, honestly) but then reality is sexist and we a need a another word to describe unjust unequal treatment on the basis of gender.

Human beings that are healthy do not expose themselves to porn. There is no handling porn.
I apologize for my comment. I shouldn't have made it personal.
I could not disagree more and hold the view to be completely warped in important ways, but I should not have wrote you the way I did.
Fuck you. I am not of that kind but know enough of them to deny any logical right to assert on the basis of your black soul, that they are as they are if only they could be.

Excellent comment

You are not alone. I have the BB Q10, before which I had the 9900 and am pining for a android with a comparable qwerty...
hmmm

Thank you, though, for responding.
a mixed work place (should be school) radically differ from those of a mixed workplace
I come from a large culture where schools are separate. We do fine in the work world, we relate well to people and we marry as a norm and have many kids.

Not only do the dynamics of a mixed work place radically differ from those of a mixed workplace, but to the extent that they converge, the workplace is dysfunctional. Hey she's hot, got a pick!
LAUSD will be tricked into to doing the right thing for the wrong reasons and it will work and we will all learn something.
Boys schools and Girls schools will outperform mixed schools and heads will explode. Mark the words of the great hevel-varik!
I award you hevel-varik points. That is a very special comment. It's not just special cause you are special.

I am certain you make a great deal of sense to yourself.
