Yes, it really *is* different for girls.
HN disallowed my comment because I'm New-ish. Valid reason. But I still have something to say.
It's different for us. But, we're used to it. At least, I am. The trik (write this down) is to always be in a position to say No. "No, I will not have sex for you in exchange for an A." "No, I will not have sex with you to hold onto my gig."
Nope.
- 27182818284 13y agoA submission like this without context is useless, despite gender or sex (yes those are different) I wish I had more context to what you're saying.
- Jody 13y agoHuh. You know, I heard somewhere else that the word "gender" and the word "sex" don't share a Merriam Webster definition. I think I heard that 9 years before I wrote my senior thesis on gender bias in intelligence testing. Right, so, the context is another HN ask: "It's Different for Girls." You can find it, if you try.

- dang 12y ago> HN disallowed my comment because I'm New-ish We blocked new accounts from commenting in that thread because trolls were beginning to descend upon it, and they often create new accounts to ply their trollish ways. Sorry you got locked out in the process. We don't like turning that switch on precisely because legit new users do show up to comment.
