Quoted from article

"In much of western Europe, such efforts follow a decade-long push by governments. In 2008 Norway obliged listed companies to reserve at least 40% of their director seats for women on pain of dissolution. In the following five years more than a dozen countries set similar quotas at 30% to 40%. In Belgium, France and Italy, too, firms that fail to comply can be fined, dissolved or banned from paying existing directors. Germany, Spain and the Netherlands prefer soft-law quotas, with no sanctions. Britain opted for guidelines."

You guys don't even read the article. It's your opinion on the matter, cool. Let's agree to disagree I guess


Kinda depends on which time period the quota is enforced in. Fine companies right now, and directors might be kicked out. Have a longer time period to change the board and use new female applications for the reserved seats to offset the percentage without kicking ppl out.. There's a balancing act to be done there..

/e: In this sentence btw, the kicking out, is presented as a fine for the director (man or woman).

How does that answer anything? Where did i say quotas are only good or the solution to the problem? I think it would be good for the discussion if you opened the point of the link here in the post. Because one solution to the problem is suboptimal it doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist.

I can't read the whole article, man. The Economist is a borderline ideological publishment if you haven't noticed and an excerpt of it serves just to confirm the preconceptions of potential subscribers. I wouldn't really rely on that for objective consideration (apply's to left wing stuff such as the Guardian, too)

You said I was repeating memes in post #45. This isn't a meme, it's reality in the Eu. I don't know how the policy is where you live. If you live in the Eu you see this stuff in newspapers and on television where it's making headlines -> thus considered important news.

I used the article quote to show it's not memes.

My opinion is just mine, like it or hate it. Men can start companies and women can. No inequality there. Fair world for both ^^

Have a nice day.

Seems to be your standard response when slammed by simple facts. Cheap ^^

Playing sexist card next?


I just posted the "nightmare" of a world where women are dominating.

If you feel so insecure how about trying to get a life in Afghanistan, Somalia, Syria, Arabia Saudi...


Yeah... Sounds like you are not eligible for the intelligible challenge.

The men are trash thread and the single mothers thread could really be the same thread.

1) I get how to read that post, I might be more intelligent then you reckon then.

2) I've spent quite a bit of time in at least half a dozen countries but I try to avoid shit holes as much as I can. Nty

You wrote "feminist much" - which is wrong - then jabbered through some kind of "women are protected" non-sense.
You were just wrong all along, i simply illustrated the fear of a world dominated by women, which actually exists - inverted - in the countries i listed.

Could extend on castration vs excision...

Yes they are in the Western world just like I said, your quote takes my post out of context.

I am not talking about the shit holes you decided to throw in. Their rules work different.
