My new blog, my old blog1

I’ve already started the move over to my new blog I am hosting at my own website. Now that I’m starting to do more with it, I’ve come to the conclusion that I’ll be better off with more control (Hey, I’m a control freak, but you knew that…) over the appearance and structure, especially because I’ll be able to put up my own links and ads and modify the template at will. So this will now serve as an archive for my old entries, which I will leave here.

A rose by any other name…0

It is well-known that men outnumber women in the upper echelons of business. In spite of the efforts of women on the outside and on the ladder of what ought to be success, women are not coming close to men in upper management, and we have yet to figure out why.

Researchers Lise Vesterlund of the University of Pittsburgh and Muriel Niederle of Stanford University ran an experiment to find some reason why only 2.5% of women make it to the top.

In the first part of the experiment, men and women were asked to add up as many sets of double-digit numbers as they could within a five minute period, and were paid 50 cents for each correct answer. Next the volunteers were divided into groups of four. The same amount of money was going to be given out, but all of it would go to the person at each table who scored the most right answers.

For the final part of the experiment, the test subjects were asked to choose whether they wanted to go back to the ‘piecework’ model or continue with the ‘competitive’ model. Women overwhelmingly chose to go back to the ‘piecework’ model, even those who were best at solving answers and likely to win all the money in their group.

The researchers concluded that the factor in the difference is that men enjoy competition and women do not. I think this is a little simplistic, as “competition” is not the only thing that was being tested here, and certainly not the only character trait that would come into play.

In fact, “competitiveness” is a loaded word, with positive connotations that are valued in our culture. Is it really competitiveness when somebody without significant math skills is willing to wager that they will manage to take all? No, of course not. That is gambling, of which competitiveness is a small part. Gambling is, as we all know, a typically male behavior.

Again, look at what the women did and how we are describing them. If the women who participated (and by extension, those in society at large) are not “competitive”, then they must be “non-competitive”, surely a bad character trait.

Now look at what the males were doing as gambling. What’s the opposite of gambling that you’ll win or lose all? How about working to assure equitable distribution of earnings? Is that such a bad thing?

Thank bdsm for the evolution of humans!0

Fossil evidence shows that humans and chimpanzees share a common ancestor from about 7 million years ago. Recently geneticists have been comparing genetic sequences to learn more about this. Guess what? The data show that although humans and chimpanzees split about 7 million years ago, they apparently did some interbreeding a little more than 5 million years ago.

According to an article in the paper, for the offspring to be fertile, it must have been a female, and it was probably the human male that mated with a female chimp. Male hybrids of this sort are sterile. Then, the offspring had to mate again with a proto-human. Eventually the population of the early proto-humans became extinct, leaving two lineages: the proto-chimps, and chimp hybrids, which evolved into us.

Among the numerous comments from the scientific community were remarks from those who could not believe that a “human” could bring itself to mate with a “chimp”. Why, chimps walk on all fours and humans on two legs! Some pointed out that the difference was undoubtedly not as great at that time as it is now. Obviously nobody has considered the fact that this semi-interspecies mating was probably the result of a prehuman male falling head-over-heels in love with a chimpoid.

You kinky guys!

Ethics? What’s that?2

Panel says professor plagiarized, fabricated

BOULDER - An investigation of a professor who likened some of the Sept. 11, 2001 victims to Nazi Adolf Eichmann found serious cases of misconduct in his academic research, including plagiarism and fabrications, a University of Colorado spokesman said yesterday. One member of the five-person investigative committee recommended that Ward Curchill, an ethics studies professor, be fired, and four recommended he be suspended, university spokesman Barrie Hartman said. Churchill has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing. (AP)

No comment. Dumbass.

More myspace in the news0

It looks like miscreants young and otherwise have decided to help law enforcement agencies with their work. Police are now hanging out on myspace, looking for members who boast about their crimes and indiscretions by putting up evidence, and there is no shortage of volunteers.

Hello?!? Pedophiles, thieves, conspirators, kids posting pics of their friends having sex, pictures of their drinking parties… The word that comes to mind is DUMBASS. Yes, that word just comes up again and again. So many wannabe dumbasses, it’s like a competition to be the world’s greatest dumbass.

The bravado in posting evidence of your rule- and lawbreaking on the internet is stunning, boys. Please continue to save my tax dollars on law enforcement. Thank you.

Visit my website for more keen insight into the tender young mind, and how it can be shaped with discipline, even if you thought it was years too late.

This post got lost in the editing…0

Gotta love that Wordpress autoformatting that strips link text when you try to edit an old post. The whole post was links, and I couldn’t recover them, even though the only thing I changed in the post was the footer. Thanks for a wonderful feature.

Getting in touch with the inner lizard3

Nurse Svetlana told me about a call she had last night. She doesn’t have a blog, but this is too good not to share.

The guy who called last night showed up in her Masturbatorium listing. He was clearly looking to hand over control to a dominant woman, and that she is. He got a lecture on his inner lizard. Now you know the inner lizard, all guys do. It’s what makes you want to have sex right there on the pavement in public with some woman, definitely a lizard thing to do. You see, the problem is that when you think about sex every eight seconds like guys do, the brain waves going back and forth between the two heads create a flux that cancels out any real thought, and it ends up being your inner lizard that takes over your body. In other words, you devolve about 500 million years in a few seconds. He was very receptive to working on this little male problem, and so Svetlana, who is into mind control and reprogramming, took the opportunity to regress him to that inner lizard. So after he had sex with a beautiful shiny green female lizard, he basked in the sun on a warm rock, and felt the tropical breeze on his back, all while masturbating under highly controlled circumstances. Try it, it may be just the thing you need!

Call Nurse Svetlana now!
