Yahoo's female executives guilty of sexism?

Looks like it is coming out more and more that Yahoo's female executives are trying to get rid of the males working there, which is sexism. The company is falling apart with Marissa Mayer to thank.

Surely you're mistaken. We live in a patriarchy! Women can't be guilty of sexism.

Plus there is a silver lining for these female executives: because they are female..if they get in any legal trouble over this they can rest easy in the knowledge they will most likely get a much more lenient sentence than a man doing the same thing.

On the other hand, it's possible she wants to get rid of males because of that pesky wage gap. Like, didn't you know you could legally pay women less? It's totally true, Lena Dunham told me. So this could just be an example of a great businesswoman. Using that wage gap to her advantage.

Nah, feminism negates itself.

Plus like I said, this isn't sexism, it's just good business acumen. Any good businessman would want to take advantage of the fact you can legally pay a female less for the same job.

We have entered a gender less world, so why should it matter if you say businessman or businesswoman?

At this point, what difference does it make!?

So true, we need to take a page from Tim Kaines book. The correct word is: businessperson.

It still matters to Marissa Mayer who knows we live where there is different genders, and she can discriminate against men. Everyone should be treated fair, but men and women are different, some things men are better at, some things women are better at.

This is nothing new, there are plenty of things women can do to men that aren't treated as seriously as when men do them to women.

I'll never forget the article about the women who were claiming sexism because the AC was turned up too high and they were cold. You see because the men were hot and wanted it up that high. So even though it's a lot easier to throw on a sweater as opposed to the men removing their shirts entirely..there is still sexism there obviously.

That is a very radical standpoint. Purge that thought!
