At an individual level, one could be a good husband and father and be non-monogamous. At an individual level, one could also be a good monogamous husband and father. I agree with you there, although I think the expectations for most (but

A woman takes 9 months to birth a child, and up until very recently had some serious risk during childbirth. The dude just has to shoot his load. This imbalance in reproductive investment predates modern human concept of monogamy. > if

They were censored? How is this even controversial? Females have a biological incentive to be more choosy than men as their reproductive investment is much higher -- it seems obvious that the result is rational from a biological perspecti

Thank you! This was many years ago, and I've held several jobs since then, 1000+ miles away from there now. It has not impacted my career the slightest, but thank you for your concern! I don't have some superiority complex again

I appreciate your honesty that it is complete conjecture on your part that the 2 months hadn't been coordinated.

If it's your first job, then sure maybe. I've done something similar, walking off a bad job at the most critical time they needed me. Would you like to know what happened? I used one of my many other references, and within two w

I'm not sure it works like that. You may get away with it, assuming the lawyer never reveals your intent, but this sounds a lot like the "security" extortion rackets of the mob: "Hey thought you should know, my 'se

I have done this for a company who was knowingly making materially false information to investors. The company merely asked glassdoor to remove it, and they did. It's probably not worth the liability to glassdoor to have reviews that

Thank you for the sober and measured response. I must say though, that US fiat has cratered since being pulled off the gold standard around 1971, and the purchasing power is always declining. It seems like some cryptos fill a similar niche

That only works if you have no wealth. If you have any wealth, you should diversify it. Only a fool would dump all their money into crypto, but also only a fool would put all their eggs into the basket of unbacked fiat. You're just

You mean the government may have to rely on old fashioned police work, like undercover agents or informants witnessing the illegimate activity rather than passively spying on financial transactions? Say it ain't so!
