GENDER EQUALITY..not really




NationalOrganization of Women, take notice. The men's room door has no lock. The ladies' room has a code. I know, I reported on this before but a recent news item from the last few days reminded me that the whole issue of gender equality is a bunch of hooey. Cherry picking is rampant. Women want equal pay for equal work, and a whole bunch of things but it is still THE LAW of the land that they are the "weaker sex" and not subject to "equality." The capsizing of the Italian Cruise ship and the "women and children first" rule that was violated by the Captain is one example.

Ray Kelly, the Police Commissioner of New York, has a son who is a TV personality. A couple of MONTHS ago, he had some back and forth communication (texting I believe) with a young woman, who had a boyfriend. Nevertheless, Kelly and the woman went out on a date and at the end of the evening she invited him back to her law office where they apparently did a little "desk work." A few months later she accused him of RAPE and every newspaper in New York and most TV shows have carried the story. I don't remember seeing her photo in the paper (the accuser) but his was ubiquitous. His reputation and life are over because of an accusation by a "victim" who, even though she was involved with another man in a relationship and "cheated on him" it appears, worked out a "date" with Mr. Kelly, and took him back to her office late at night to show him her "briefs" or go over some "motions" whatever.

We will know that we have TRUE gender equality when all the papers show a photo of both the accuser and the accused. Also, when they take the lock off the womens' room door, or put one on the men's room too.
