Re: OT: A slight stir to let you all know I'm back

vj found this  in rec.arts.mystery, from razz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> :

"Where’s that vaulting ambition to break through the infamous and
repellent glass ceiling? Where’s the bloody work ethic?"

"Despite four decades of what we might call ‘progressive’ legislation
designed to enforce equality within the workplace, the number of babes
plying some sort of trade isn’t rising very much."

women found out that:
1 - the so-called glass ceiling is made out of granite?
2 - no matter how well they did at work, they were still supposed to
be full-time wives, mothers, and maids?
etc. etc.

i don't think those stats work for the US, either.

there you go - there's a start.
