A good troll knows what lures to use and when the fish are biting.

Did you interview your female friends at BYU yet?

I contacted one who was a science major. She said yes, she did receive discouragement.

Shocking.

btw, AA, when you lose an argument in a court of law, are you going to accuse the other side of trolling? Will that work for ya?

One friendly word of advice for you while you are at NYU--never open your mouth about your opinions on gender roles with anyone whom you work with or might work with or who might know someone you might work with.

Argument ain't over yet, kid. Patience.

SU is a dipshit. I miss him like I miss stepping in dog poo.

And by the way, what opinion on gender role ought I to keep hidden? The one where the question of who does what when it comes to raising children and winning bread ought to be handled by the parents on an case-by-case basis? Or the one where it is not always possible or desirable for the mother to stay at home? Should I make sure nobody knows that I believe that actively discouraging a woman from pursuing her goals, whatever they may be, is reprehensible and ought to be condemned?

the one where you think it is appropriate for BYU faculty to discourage female students from certain careers.

Do you think it is appropriate for BYU faculty to discourage MALE students from certain careers?

Do I have to explain this again, what sexism means?
