[Why Syzygy]

6. ROFLMAO

Funniest thread on DU today

(You were joking, were you not?).

[babylonsister]

7. Are you sitting in the basement in your underwear? nt

[CJCRANE]

8. Maybe women spend more on the household

or on cosmetics etc.

[seemunkee]

9. Yes, because how much is spent on dating

Is the be all/end all of how people manage their money and lifestyles.
Are you in high school and trying to make your McD's salary go farther, like maybe to second base.

10. wow. rank sexist dogshit backed by major stupidity

get the fuck off our website.

12. Seriously? That's pretty pathetic excuse for denying equal rights.

And as for your poll and stats, they are ridiculous. I can't speak for everyone, but most of the women i know are very self reliant, pick up the tab and everything and are also very generous with their money in terms of gifts to the men in their life. Next time you shouldn't take cue on political policy from a random magazine poll.

But if you want to get all stereotypical on the female gender in terms of money, it's a pretty big stereotype that women love to shop and tend to buy higher priced items, while men tend to be more frugal in their spending and rarely buy outside their needs. So in this economic crisis, where the key seems to be getting us all to spend as much money back into commerce as we can, wouldn't it make more sense to give higher wages to women because they are more likely to spend it then men are, thus boost our economy?

Not that I'm yielding to that "women are shop-a-holics" stereotype, but it seems like I need just as flimsy an excuse to counter your magazine poll point.

13. EXACTLY!!!! - and I spend more money on beer than does my wife

I need more!

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

14. Aww jesus...

:facepalm:

Sorry dude, I have to call you a fucking moron. There is no part of your statement that is liberal or progressive.

[olkaz]

15. The key is to just not pay for anything. Let your charm and looks do the work.

There are plenty of women out there that are fast and loose with money.

So, yeah, equal work, equal pay.

[SheilaT]

16. Gee, and to consider that

that difference is real close in percentage terms to the average difference in wages. I wonder what the figures are for spending by men on women for birthdays, for Christmas, on the kids. I mean, actually doing some research rather than speculating.

I think you don't completely understand the difference between cause and effect.

[islandmkl]

17. damn fine waste of coffee...thanks, a-hole...

nice recant...at least you can follow the weather changes...

[Dammit Ann]

18. Funny, I spend all my money on my husband.

Of course we make the same, do the same thing, but all in all, it's his. I mean ours. HMMMM?

[Brazenly Liberal]

19. Hey, just because your mom gave you ANOTHER scratchy red sweater for your birthday

after you bought her a nice silvereen picture frame from the dollar store for hers is no reason the rest of us have to suffer. KWIM?

[Brazenly Liberal]

20. Aw, sweetie, don't give up so soon!

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Here, you can use one of these:

1. Obama is not a citizen.

2. The Clinton body count

3. Al Franken is stealing the election in MN

4. The economy was just aces until it became clear either a woman or a black man would be pres.

5. You can see Russia from your basement window.

6. A Brazilian ain't just a wax.

[H2O Man]

21. Sorry I mised this.

However, I can still add this: Legalize Lonnie Anderson's hair!

[Brazenly Liberal]

22. It was all fun and games until you went too far.

In a drastically overpopulated world, suggesting big hair for all is tantamount to inviting disaster.

Dammit, H2O Man, there just isn't room!

[H2O Man]

24. It is hard to accept,

but I beg people to mullet over in their minds, and recognize that far too many innocent hair styles have been processed. This must stop, no matter what the consequences.

[ellenfl]

23. oh, please! i spend more on my boyfriend than he spends on me

because i am trying to help HIM get out of debt (not caused by his spending on me) plus . . . women spend less because they make less! trust me in this, if women made the same $ as men do, they would be happy to pick up the cost of an occasional dinner. :eyes:

sheesh that's totally lame. where's my popcorn.
