And maybe those who programmed them (or who paid those who programmed them) were putting their spin into the works?
I will never forget an airplane trip where I had a discussion with the gentlemen in the next seat. He was a programmer and wrote programs for health insurance companies. He told me straight up that he was instructed to program in bugs that kicked back a percentage of claims for no reason. He said that most people wont argue with a claim like this and will just pay up. That helped me understand the world we are living in.
Sometimes, gynocentrism is painfully obvious: in this post, an American woman rabbi travels to Israel and calls for funding of Israeli women. The men that were killed and maimed in the war are invisible to her.
Maybe out of naivety, but sometimes I wish all the Men would stop joining the military or at least go on strike for a week, if in the military, and then we will see what happens. (bashing my head against the wall doesn't stop any of this nonsense I've noticed)
I think a lot of this is the Devils work... conquer and divide...
To read this outrageous article, I had to subscribe. I read it and clicked on the "angry" icon. Usually, there's a way to unsubscribe from publications. Not in this case. I found no "unsubscribe" to click. If you know of any way to unsubscribe, please let me know.
ooohhh I only read the first paragraphs.. now I tried again and get the subscribe thing... mostly, I don't subscribe to these things.. they are just after advertising money really...
one way I find that works on my MacBook is:
as soon as the article appears, click 'show read view'.
Other times it is helpful that as soon as the article loads, I go to print the article and save it as a PDF file.. one has to be very quick though.
Also, in all fairness. I clear my cookies as soon as I close my browser = Safari, in this case and that is all I use on my MacBook.. just for IT information ...
I've managed to get past the subscribe thing.. but not always.
AND: I just tried this page, I hardly have used it.. but... https://12ft.io
I could read the article..
but as stated, I clean my cookies (and cache) on exiting Safari... the quick background is that I was shocked once to see how cookies tracked me when wanting to by something on line. Something I viewed on a German site, here in Switzerland, appeared on my Facebook page... within moments...
Thanks, Jamie. Actually, I did manage to unsubscribe. They sent me a confirmation of my subscription, and that page had "unsubscribe" at the bottom. Whew!
Swedish word translates into English 'boxitis'. Applies to sailor who on the last voyage home before xmas frequently opens the box and examines the presents he is bringing for friends and family.
The dirty English mind turns this into a gynae fetish.
Wow!!
if chatGPT keeps this up it will be banned by the feminists!!!
As an experiment, I suggest that readers go to:
https://www.dictionary.com
https://www.merriam-webster.com
do a search for the word: Gynocentrism
the differences, in my search, for the two different sites is mind blowing.
What else can I say......
"Sound familiar?"
Written in identical style, in identical vocabulary, to the endless sexual harassment prevention workplace seminars in recent decades.
Yes, I wonder where it learned to talk like that??? lol
Maybe AI is much older.

There is no maybe about it. But, then, it is probably impossible to keep our spin out of any of our product.

If you leave critical comments on the page, they delete them. They don't want to hear criticisms of feminist goddesses by us uppity men!
I do hope the noted disadvantages shape policies in the direction of fairness for all. It is a constant struggle to find that sweet spot.
We are engaged in the same search.
