I can say the world is sexist..........to men

In 2 of the cases, the women had no automotive experience at all

Also the whole gym thing, what would be the point of an all mens gym?
Isnt that just a garage? I mean there is bear, loud music, tools and heavy lifing.
Also there is not guys checking out other guys, just ya mates and cars/bikes

Cry me a river mate, ever tried being a chick on a building site?
For some odd reason most of the "males" on site don't think a chick can do the job as well as a man can. I still don't get paid as much. I work twice as hard and get no fucken credit.
I threw a 8m prop at a sexist pig at work.. He go the point and was fired.

Did you have any automotive experience? if not, were you expecting to get the job because of being a male? and it came as a shock to not get it.

How do you know the female applicants had no automotive experience ??
If what you are saying is actually how it was....(ie) they were WOMAN" so they automatically got first bite of the cherry...then that appears descriminative

I don't envy you. Ive been there before, only I was the one fired (or should I say was given no choice afterwards) - you have got bigger something arather (call it what you may) than me to put up with sexist pig bullshit.

I am a big man fan in fact

Should I read that as a fan of big men or a big fan of men????

...behaviours generally associated with an excess of testosterone and a diminutive cerebrum. I suspect this type of situation occurs quite often. Why are women such a threat to men, I wonder??

Because for hundreds/thousands of years men were dominant. They feel - I am not sure I should be using they or we here - that their inherent dominance is being challenged, and respond with derision and scorn. I think that the response is brought about, in part, by the fact that women do a better job than men in many situations.
A diminutive cerebrum, or at least the feeling of such, is likely to produce a crude response. IMO women are more likely to articulate themselves better - a consequence of being more social?? - and we feel threatened by that. Not being a psych person I cant back that up with studies, but I think that is supported by observing the actions of bullies...

Which is why I think it will be a GREAT thing if/when HILLARY Clinton makes president in the 2008 elections, in which she supposedly will be running. Only thing is, they'll have to get rid of Condoleeza Rice, just imagine the two of them arguing! Imagine how many handbags the whitehouse will go through

As long as they don't both end up with hair like Donald Trump's, with all that hair pulling
