We must always respect each others differences

Unless of course it has something to do with money or equality or rights or politics or oink oink oink oink....

Status of Women Canada, SoW Canada for short or SoW for shorter, okay they use "SWC" for obvious reasons.... has its funding re organized and some women are angry.

For the uniformed:

"Status of Women Canada is the federal government agency which promotes gender equality, and the full participation of women in the economic, social, cultural and politital life of the country."

This is 2006 right? I work for a company that is staffed by roughly 63 people. Of those approximately 35% are men. Of the top four positions in the company, 50% are women. Other management positions are 75% held by women. The CADD dept is 100% women. Sales department is 75% women. Admin is 100% women. Warehousing is 100% men. Installations and service is 95% men. Where is the un-equality? What happened to the notion of hiring the best person for the job? What is stopping women from accomplishing any of what SOW, ooops, SWC promotes? Not a damn thing if you ask me. Go forth and do your best. You are what you make of yourself. It is your choice. If you fall prey to those who tell you otherwise, you need help, but not from people like this. You need someone that will help build up your confidence not feed you stories about why you are less a person. We are all equals unless we choose not to be. When you choose to be a victim, you will become one.
