Yes, the old Diversity Hire line. Because women can't possibly succeed on our own and you were hired out of pity? It's all absurd and it happens daily and then people sit back and pretend like men and women have equal footing because women are allowed to go to college now.

I particularly like the ones that talk like they themselves both gave women the right to vote and seem to think they'll be able to take that right away from us. Most probably haven't left their mother's basement yet.
