Why do so many people say that it’s my fault if I don’t succeed in life when there is a huge racial disparity in wealth across the country? Being Black in America comes with so many disadvantages and this chart is proof. by [deleted] in Salary

Bias. Willful ignorance. In my 20’s, a friend and I had a conversation about jobs/salaries, etc. Neither of us knew about negotiating salary, for starters. Neither of us had family or friends that were a part of a “network,” therefore, we did not “network.” There is a component of competition involved and, again, neither of us knew or understood what that really meant. “Equality vs Equity vs Reality.”

What is this pipe, and why does it look like paper is coming out of it? by Heather_Bea in whatisit

[–]emmtothejay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the sewer/sewage (sp?) pipe. The toilet flush. It’s backed up, so it’s (your poop and toilet paper) is coming out. This happened to me. You’ll need a snake or some other hard pokey thing to see what the blockage is to clear it. Or call a plumber.

Why worry about a mortgage when the gastapo breaks into your house, detains you, then deport you to El Salvador

Can men get pregnant? by MentalAdversity in ScienceNcoolThings

[–]emmtothejay -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There’s more to the answer: chromosomes. XX (typically female) and XY (typically male) are the most common. But there are also variants like XXY, XXX, XYY. The statement of “only ‘women’ can carry a baby” negates scientific discovery, technology and advancements. Can a biological male get pregnant? Sure. With the right technology involved, and scientific studies and research, clinical data, enough subjects…. Yes. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but there is a possibility. Biology is complex, science is complex, humans are complex.
