        Sorry for Mr. Damore - we should rather be discussing what hiring managers find so awesome about assertiveness over, say, listening skills.

        Ahi lei. Entiendo su punto, aunque seguramente la forma de expresarlo fue bastante discriminadora.

        Puede ser. Me gusta la idea de acknowledge que hay diferencias (promedio) entre los sexos.

        Me encantaría que, más que censurar esos claims, discutamos por qué atributos típicamente masculinos se valoran más.

        Employee not fired for THINKING anything, but for circulating internal memo. Delusional to expect total freedom of speech in company memos

        So are you a "both sides" guy? We know you hate liberals. And we know where you stand on the gender debate.

        As far as I can tell Pinker stands on the side of enlightenment values like logic, reason, science and truth. How about you?

        Yes, that he is not politically partisan as public intellectual. He doesn't pick a side.
