> stories like this encourages me to never hire women maybe you're just an asshole

Thank you for your respectful response. I’d like to say that, if you were in charge of hiring people, you’d try to calculate the risks when hiring someone. Hiring a women is unfortunately way too risky. You can find dozens of these posts with no proof whatsoever, but people will believe them and support the writer no matter what (some people even go and insult like you, because they can’t handle people having different opinions).

  Please pm me what company you are almost CEO of. I want to be adequately prepared to avoid this place like the plague. Also, I'd like to point out, you said: >(some people even go and insult like you, because they can’t handle people having different opinions). >stories like this encourages me to never hire women, because they’re obviously over-sensitive and will at some point write a “I have been offended and this company is sexist” post You wrote both of these, unironically, right next to each other. Can you tell me how not hiring women isn't a case of you not being able to handle people having different opinions?

    What’s the relationship exactly? I’m not saying to not hire women because they think differently, but because they’re much more likely to react in a harmful way against a company with these types of posts. That has nothing to do with me presenting this fact and another user calling me “asshole” for expressing an opinion.

      It seems to me that you're allowed to have whatever opinions you want. But if your opinions make you an asshole, people are gonna call you out on it. Also have you ever considered that you think women are more likely to react in a harmful way because you're incapable of looking at something like this with empathy for women, because you're incapable of understanding their point of view? Dig deep, and try to look at this from the perspective of another human being. Start from scratch, forget your preconceived notions and look at this from a new angle.

  Nope, that isn’t a thing. I’ve hired a lot of people and never once considered that, nor has anyone else in senior management positions that I’ve worked with. You are just an asshole.
