saying that women are biologically less suited for the job and leadership is overt discrimination. [/quote]

Do you understand the difference between "may in part explain" and are? They don't mean the same thing.

There is a difference for example between the statement, growing up in a single parent home results in poverty and growing up in a single parent home may in part result in poverty.  [/quote]

You're sad. Under the law, "may in part" is overt. This isn't your freshman year philosophy class. You are not as smart as you think you are. [/quote]

Can you explain further?  I have an engineering background and work in patent law and when I see the words "in part" I interpret it as not 100%, but some quantity between 1-99%/[/quote]

ok dimwit. saying someone is IN PART unable to do the job due to their gender is overt. "Overt" does not mean "the only reason." Imagine if someone said [/quote]

I think your comment got cut off there.  I wouldn't call it overt. Instead, i would call that ambiguous.

I don't read any hostility in those quotes, but you're taking offense to those quotes as well as my understanding of them.  There's no need to belittle anyone's intelligence for drawing two different interpretations of the same phrase. I would caution taking offense to ambiguous statements.[/quote]

it's not ambiguous, jerk[/quote]
You are committing a logical fallacy.  This is pretty basic logic.

lol. there's no logical fallacy or ambiguity there. it's just that you don't know how to read and don't understand discrimination law. [/quote]
