It's actually a crime for military members to commit adultery, and it's taken pretty seriously (at least in the units I've been in). One can imagine that the penalty for adultery has an impact on divorce rates. ETA: It'

Wait...this didn't make it easy at all. When you said "women are women" were you speaking in terms of gender or sex? After that you said "trans women", so I take it you mean gender only? If so, does that mean a b

Can anyone provide insight as to how transgendered people count in the "women in tech" discussion? As I see it, there's now a quadrant of biological (fe)males and psychological (fe)males. Would a woman in tech mean only bio

Agreed. I routinely fold laundry during my morning standup call. It's a zero-mental-effort task that gets me on my feet while I chat with my coworkers in a meaningful way. Since I'm at home, my wall-sized dry-erase board is rig

The conclusion of the article you cited is that the authors can't find a way to conversationally distinguish between wealthy and poor nations without somebody being offended. I think this is a great illustration of the fact that, alt

Yeah, legacy is probably a bad term because it connotes "old". Still, there is a sense in which this is the legacy approach: very few do it, whereas it used to be the norm. In fact, the only place I've ever worked that self

This article assumes a priori that talking to boys differently than to girls is bad, then attempts to substantiate the claim, in part, with references to obvious bullying -- a very different topic. But it overlooks the obvious: that boys
