The question remains the same. How does this data support the notion that donors are reluctant to supportpotentialfemale candidates?

How does this data help support the hypothesis that donors are reluctant to donate to female candidates?

What am I supposed to do with this? Jump to conclusions?

And we've come full circle. This is what passes for logic and reason on the left nowadays. Make assertions, fail to substantiate them in any serious way, claim they're "obvious", and repeat them over and over until they're considered facts.

Do you need to support your claims with evidence if you want them to be taken seriously? Uh, yes?

Furthermore, I'm intentionally "obscuring" your guess with other potential guesses. Maybe if someone had done the same for gender studies we wouldn't be treating other guesses like 'privilege' and 'rape culture' as though they were scientific fucking laws.

You don't have a theory. You have a guess that you haven't even attempted to substantiate. If I'm obligated to disprove your guess, aren't you obligated to disprove mine?

Maybe American women are generally just less interested in a career in politics for cultural reasons?

It's all apples to oranges. The U.S. electoral system is barely similar to most other western democracies, and the differences are far more numerous than just campaign finance rules.

You've successfully found a correlation between two things. And I have a rock that keeps tigers away. I'm not disagreeing with you about how shitty our campaign finance system is. It's like my #1 pet political issue.

Correlation is not causation. You could be right or you could be wrong. Determining causation takes more effort than just pointing to a country with higher representation and arbitrarily picking a characteristic of that country as the cause.

So the explanation for the lack of female representatives in government is that donors are reluctant to donate to female candidates? Is there evidence for this, or are we just assuming it's true?

"We need to evacuate civilians out of the city across the Golden Gate Bridge!" SFPD closes 5 fucking lanes of traffic for no discernable reason. I enjoyed this movie though. Just needed more 'zilla being a boss.

I think I've been reading too much TumblrInAction lately. Shit is seriously infuriating me. This perversion of logic and reason that has corrupted the left lately makes me want to burn something down. Like, you can just assert that there's a rape culture, and then every time something bad...

"Which one? Which one?... Which one?"

Can we get Oberyn some milk of the poppy.

Oberyn's death has me at maximum butthurt. I didn't care about any Starks! Fuck 'em!

"Size does not matter when you're flat on your back."

You should've taken another useless Stark. It should've been Brann! Fuck you, GRRM. You monster.

Do you guys think Oberyn will be alright?

Haha, what the fuck was that shot?

lol Fisher getwreckedon that screen, bitch!

He looks like a fuckin' puffer fish. Also, do the Thunder even have a bench?

If you spend $500 on a sweater, fuck you.

Least surprising game of the season.

You're weird, bro.

That loose ball foul on Lebron was legitimately atrocious.

I'd really prefer to not have to watch this horrible Pacers team for another game.

It's possible. I mean, we did send Jerle off the deep end. There's no telling how many monsters we created.

He'd get close to a girl and in a high-pitched whine go "eeehhh... ehhhhhhhhhh... wanna have sex? Pouty ducklips... ehhhhhh... I'm a nighelf druid... ehhhhhh."

I think I'd choose life over you guys talking about me.

Because normally virgins are lovably pathetic, especially as portrayed on TV and in movies. An arrogant and spiteful virgin is like the least sympathetic human archetype imaginable.

I wonder if the city might be liable considering the police were contacted beforehand (assuming this is actually true).

I thought they contacted the police after they saw his videos though?

Yeah I don't know if I'd go dogpiling on the parents yet. I'm sure they fucked up a bit during his upbringing, but every parent fucks during a kid's upbringing. At a certain point, kids decide for themselves whether or not they want to be pathetic antisocial dipshits. I have a pretty big...

Trip to Amsterdam, buy a classy regulated hooker. Solved.

You're actually keeping track of our points in a spreadsheet, aren't you?

If I stand up a little too quickly and get a little light-headed for a few seconds, am I able to consent?

Crown the Thunder.

I fell for kony2012 at first. Never again.
