Have you quit beating your wife yet?ReserveTank wrote: ↑Fri Apr 09, 2021 4:26 pmYou're denying nature, and therefore, science. Like most Western men, you are uneducated on the basics of humans and the differences of the sexes.
Our society has been steadily devolving for the past 60 years. You'll certainly reap the reflection of society that you seek.
Diversity's real meaning is forcing people into positions that they weren't qualified for or didn't desire in the first place. One way diversity is achieved is through lowering/eliminating testing standards.
There is no doubt that the state will achieve it-They are way beyond the exploration phase. It's only news to you now.
Of course, what you're failing to mention is what effect booting White guys from an industry will have:
Severely lowered wages
Extreme competition for few open jobs
Reduction/elimination of benefits
Return of loose or even abusive contract language
You know, all those things that terrible Whitey fought against.
You see, it's not about diversity and moral good. It's about resetting the clock on working conditions so that every pilot can work like an Amazon distribution centre slave or an Uber driver. The oligarchy has already firmly established through decades of trial and error that diversity is the way to create a slave class. So what you're promoting is indeed abusive to women and...diverse people. It's slavery, the very thing you believe that you're against.
As I've said, it's all psychology, and you've been tricked.

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
Has anyone ever actually looked into the reasons why women are less likely to go for a flying career?photofly wrote: ↑Fri Apr 09, 2021 4:56 pmSadly, not. If she did, we’d already have 50% female airline pilots.digits_ wrote: ↑Fri Apr 09, 2021 4:43 pmShe already has.photofly wrote: ↑Fri Apr 09, 2021 4:36 pm
However, for as long as being an airline pilot is a well paid and respected job, I would like my daughter to have the same access to it as a career as my son; without the extra hurdle of being the only woman in her ground school class, the only woman on the type rating course, and the only worman in the flight deck.Because for as long as she’s the only woman, everything she does and achieves is about being the sole female. If she succeeds, it’s because as a woman she has to work harder than the men. If she fails, it’s because women aren’t as good as men. For as long as there’s only one woman around, she’s both an unwilling representative and an oddity, and that’s stressful.Why is being the only (fe)male in a class a hurdle?
Read some testimonies from black students who were the only visible minority in their classes. I’ll try to find you some.
I think women are generally smarter than us, so for them logic will prevail more often (And this career is a moonshot imo) I know most people seem to start out by getting a job doing grunt work up north, which for obvious reasons yeah would be more difficult, though not sure how AC and the other big players can have any effect on this reality if they wanted to?
It's amazing despite us all being pilots, how shitty I see others act to each other in the pattern!
Re: United Airlines hiring goals
Moderators this whole discussion is extremely offensive to women and I hope you remove it. There are most definitely systematic things in place keeping women out of the industry including the sexism displayed in this discussion. Perhaps if you will never have to face pumping your breasts in a planes toilet you should reconsider your authority to speak on the subject.

EDITED. 'Telex', take a holiday for a couple of weeks, and reconsider your attitude towards 'newlygrounded'

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
It amazes me the complete lack of thought process in some people. Do you think it is systemic discrimination because you never see a female trash collector. Or working the sewars, etc.
Can we work toward a policy where the people who support these affirmative action policies identify themselves and then they can be put on the no-hire list to make way for the diversity hires.

You are not part of the aviation industry.
You never were.
You never will be.
As always, I appreciate your insightful thoughts into the industry you are not a part of. Nor have ever been. Nor ever will be.

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
In the USA they call this policy of quota hiring, “Affirmative Action”, which is a polite way of saying “Justifiable Discrimination”.
Fight it. Don’t let up. Let Jordan Peterson be your guide. These misguided attempts at social engineering by race hustlers and grifters will not end well. It’s not a new story.

Your premise is false, as there are women who work in these roles, but they are few, and yes, it absolutely is systemic discrimination:
https://www.mswmanagement.com/collectio ... n-in-waste
Spot the troubling generalizations about women in that article, by the way, and you might see why it’s not a very good approach to what it’s trying to achieve.)
Here’s an ad for a municipal sewer worker. Is there anything at all here to suggest a woman wouldn’t be able to do or should want this job any less than a man?
https://jobs.toronto.ca/jobsatcity/job/ ... 545897017/
Anything except your prejudice, that is? And your attitude - that it’s not surprising, that’s it’s acceptable, and that it’s appropriate that women don’t want to work in this field, or that field, because it’s not “women’s work” is precisely the systemic discrimination that needs to be fixed.
Seriously: try to think of a reason why a sewer worker shouldn’t be a woman, without forming some discriminatory and disgusting piece of generalizing yeuch that starts “women in general are/aren’t...” any time your mind starts to go there, realize you’re part of the problem.
DId you hear the one about the jurisprudence fetishist? He got off on a technicality.
Re: United Airlines hiring goals
Because no one wants to be a sewer worker. However women tend to not have the responsibility of being sole provider, so they can pick and choose more than men.Seriously: try to think of a reason why a sewer worker shouldn’t be a woman, without forming some discriminatory and disgusting piece of generalizing yeuch that starts “women in general are/aren’t...” any time your mind starts to go there, realize you’re part of the problem
My wife wants to start her own business. I have no desire to do so and she can’t understand why. Cause it doesn’t interest me in the slightest running a business. People are different.

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
Of course some women, who have claimed the victim role, will find sexism everywhere. For those that have done so, it is much easier than looking inward at their own life choices. They get to play the victim role and blame the patriarchy and their work is done. So they stagnate in their resentment.

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
Thinking on this subject:
Most Bus, Taxi drivers are men as well.
However, more women are starting businesses, and a majority of law and medical students are now women.
Gee, which group is a closer analogy for a commercial pilot?

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
Again with the sexism. Women don’t have to work because they have men to look after them? Pat on the head for women who choose to have a hobby that earns them some pocket money, but we should leave the good paying jobs for men because they have the responsibilities.C-GGGQ wrote: ↑Sat Apr 10, 2021 5:33 amBecause no one wants to be a sewer worker.

If there wasn’t so much sexism from people like you, you’d find that more women would have the responsibility of being the “provider”. Don’t you get it?
Yes, people are different. Some people want to be sewer workers - the pay is good, you see a hidden part of the city, the camaraderie is great. Some people don’t - it’s smelly, and you wade in shit.
But there’s no reason why those preferences are to do with what sex you are.

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
That’s not what I said at all. Sewer work doesn’t pay well. People only do it cause they have to. Like it or not most women don’t HAVE to do it. They have other options. I never said women shouldn’t have careers, but 99.999% of the time that mean’s a two income houshold. Single income households are almost always the man. Hell my wife who wants to run a business also wants to be a stay at home mom. She has a career now. She wants more. I have a career now. I am happy with it. That’s the difference and it had 100% to do with your sex. We are wired different and have different wants and priorities.photofly wrote: ↑Sat Apr 10, 2021 6:24 amAgain with the sexism.

Boy do you ever need to open your eyes past the borders of your comfortable middle class ghetto!I never said women shouldn’t have careers, but 99.999% of the time that mean’s a two income houshold
I regret that for as long as you think that to be true (and are not just trolling) you ARE the problem that United is taking action against.
