Definitely they are capable. Proof is obviously the fact that the world goes on and pretty girls have successful careers and jobs. But it's not without its risks. Even Bill Gates can't keep his hands off employees or young girls he met through Epstein (the Russian bridge player that came out a few days ago)

Wait - you think this is all a reason why you can behave the way you described? There is something deeply troubled with you. I'm sorry that I'm so rude, but it's obviously true. And for what it's worth, as rude as this post might seem, it pales in comparison to the estimations of the entire female sex that you have expressed in this thread.

I have no idea what point you're trying to make.

That speaks more to you, than it does to me. What does it matter that Bill Gates does things with Jeffery Epstein that does or does not involve women? It has no bearing on your or your behavior AT ALL.

We are on a tech forum, talking on a thread where a tech company decided not to hire a hot woman because they cause distractions and problems.

So, I mentioned that even Bill Gates, basically the most popular tech person in the world, married his coworker, and then cheated on her because he couldn't control himself. Aka, even elite tech people with everything to lose, can't turn down a pretty young girl. Thus, I understand why OPs company did what they did.

You can keep talking in circles about what you think the world should be like. I'm talking about what it's actually like.

But Bill Gates' behavior isn't excused. You keep bringing up people's bad behavior as if it should be tolerated. It isn't. You might, but as I've pointed repeatedly, you are actually rather toxic and don't seem to represent the norm at all.

OP admitted to a prima facie legally actionable sexual discrimination case. You are here defending them as it being the way things are. It isn't. That's why it's agains the law. You seem to not have gotten the memo. I'm here to remind you, apparently.

No one is EXCUSING any behavior. They are simply not inviting temptation into their work place since we know guys like Bill Gates exist.

You are. You are saying that an attractive woman invites sexual harassment. That hasn’t been the case in my office. You are saying it’s okay to discriminate against attractive women because men can’t control their behavior. I’ve already explained to you (like 6 times now), that is A) illegal sexual discrimination, and B) obviously fucking foolish logic. Men can control their behavior and must be expected to. Your argument is akin to saying that the greatest % of thieves are latino, so that it’s okay not to hire latinos because they might be thieves. That’s just facial discrimination and it doesn’t matter how many times you try to logically invert the situation.

It’s also amusing that in this logic, you are like “hey, we already hired the rapists, they can’t control themselves, let’s not hire any women to be around them!” And you don’t see a problem with that. Deeply seated in your logic and worldview is a view of women that is incredibly incredibly fucked up. You have not come up with a single scenario in this thread where women spend any time putting in any efforts (at work or otherwise) to do anything besides be sexual objects for men, and you push this view into everything, as if it’s actually the case. I feel sorry for the women you know that must have to deal with your regressive bullshit, and I feel sorry for anyone that has to experience you sharing such ideas.
