TV Host Presses Actress Stacey Dash on ‘Gender Inequality’ — Her Non-PC Response Has Sparked a Fir

The most effective way to ensure women get paid as much as men is for women to be prepared to “work harder” and seize any opportunities that may come their way, actress Stacey Dash told TV host Meredith Vieira on Wednesday. One tactic that is not useful, Dash said, is complaining and making excuses.

“I feel like it’s an excuse. It’s the same thing with race. It’s an excuse. Stop making excuses. If there are opportunities, be prepared for them — and be the best if that’s what it takes. If you have be extraordinary, then be extraordinary.”

LOL! Seems like meredith got her panties wadded up at the idea that maybe, just maybe, if you want to get ahead, you may, just may, have to prove that your valuable. What a concept huh? Guess there was no mention of the wh staff pay disparity. Thank you Ms. Dash. Next time, be prepared for another ambush.

If women were actually doing as good a job at work as men, and if fact are working for less money, every competitive company would be overstaffed with women.
It would mean more profit for the company.-Tom

All I know is education

In this line of work alone, away from pregnancy, women are generally "off sick: at a ratio of 80 -20

I'd love to hear from other in their line of work.

In software development (or my little bit of it at any rate) the pay seems to be the same.

However it’s almost all men.

Shh. Leftists can’t handle reality well.

There’s also an age factor in play as most of us older people expect our comediennes like Vieira to be funny. She’s always missed that part.

Easy on the eyes for sure...but I do sometimes cringe with some of her less-intelligent comments when she’s on “Outnumbered”.

It’s just a scientific fact, the Right has hotter babes (can I say that?) than the Left. Exhibit A: Stacey Dash vs Lena Dunham.

I will guarantee you that Ms Dash gets paid FAR more for wearing that outfit than I would!

(Not that I’d be caught dead wearing a get-up like that!)
