As much as I think that Linux Mint is a distribution with great potential, I don't want to support something that blatantly states that they don't want my help or the help of anyone who supports Israel.

Similarly, mass shootings per year compared by country where mass shooting is defined as 4 people getting shot.

All but the two of the reasons boil down to, they are more men in that subject than women. A higher men to women ratio of astronauts, scientists, infantry soldiers and athletes mean that it makes sense that more of the equipment would be oriented towards men. Similarly I would assume that make up sets have small parts that are more appropriate for smaller women hand's than women's.

As for office temperature, I have never worked at a place where the temperature was dictated by a study. Everywhere I worked it was either the person sitting closest to the thermostat, the manager or a consensus that picked the temperature. But I assume that there may be places that go buy the stated study. Even in that case saying something like: > "For all the corporate talk about teamwork, it's hard to feel part of a team when you are placed in an inhospitable physical environment." Is a huge exaggeration and doesn't help accomplish anything

As for phone screen, I assume that men buy about the same amount as women. Yet the phone companies realized that if they make larger phones people will still buy it. The fault lies on the women for buying large phones rather than smaller ones, thereby letting phone companies know that making phones bigger is okay.

Oh well

I apologise for that (it's too late for me to change my post). I never intended to imply that the world should work that way, or that disabled people, or OP in particular, are less human than others. I come from a different culture than you, so it is hard for me to understand exactly what I did that was wrong. Can you advise how you would phrase my idea in a less insulting way?

Why look at the racial distribution? The gender divide is much larger. 93.2% of all of them are men. Are men incarcerated for lessor cause than women?

What if there is a scene that involves a car, such as driving a car? Should movies ideally "make" their own car, or is there a way to use an existing car without being accused of product placement?

I wonder if the Iranian government could send $1 to everyone who publicly displayed their bank information in order to cause banks to ban a large number of random people.

when I was a kid, I used to bike to school. I had a type of thought experiment. Biking uphill was difficult for me. I would have liked to teleport to the top of the hill and be over with it. What I would do was before starting the hill, I would say to myself that I'm going to teleport. Then I would try hard not to think. Then when I got to the top of the hill, I would snap back to it and pretend that I teleported to the top of the hill.

I would always wonder if I could use the same logic for surgery

Your response makes a lot of sense. It is a shame that after people like Summers (or that Google guy) talk about these issues, the talks about how to attack whoever wrote the piece drowns out attacks on the idea. It may vary well be that your theory is right. In that case I would hope that the discourse would go as follows. Summers submits an article about how variance is the reasons for difference between men and women in careers. Then someone like you submits an article explaining why the first theory is incorrect. Then Summers explains why your critic is incorrect. After enough back and forth, other scientists in the field start to join the conversation, some agreeing with Summers other with you. After enough time the scientific consensus gravitates to one side.

However currently whenever someone talks about this, the response is not "let's argue your conclusion" but rather "burn the witch".

Care to explain your logic? Cat repair isn't so expensive even though everyone with a car has car insurance.

That is a shame. Whenever I would take a long trip that went geographically over the EU, I would usually buy a ticket that had a 8+ hour layover somewhere in the EU and tour around for a little while. I guess I will now have to find another country to take a layover in. Maybe I will start flying British Airway if the UK lets me visit visa free.
