Know It All – I do not mean any offense but when you say, “for too long, issues of LGBT rights have been exploited by those seeking to divide us” are you implying that you too are perhaps ***?
Know It All – Oh yes ( sighs ), you know women arcoss America must have been holding their breath waiting for your answer. LOL =)
Your thoughts on”People are paid exactly what they are worth” Supply and demand,return on investment.

Simply put, If one is not paid what they are worth,all they need do is get another job that pays them what they are worth.
Supply and demand, if there are a thousand people willing to do a particular job for say $30,000 a year, why should an employer pay 40?
If $30,000 is less than the employee is worth,certainly another comany would be willing to pay it.
Simply put ,if you believe you are underpaid ,go get a job that pays more.
If you are worth it someone will be willing to pay, right?
Would you support this campaign against abusive women?

Erin Pizzey, the campaigner who pioneered treatment for abused women by setting up the world’s first refuge centre for victims of domestic violence in the 1970s, is now turning her attention to another group of often overlooked victims: men.
Launching an online campaign and research project aimed at bringing the issue out in the open, Ms Pizzey, wife of broadcaster Jack Pizzey, aims to raise awareness of abuse perpetrated by women against men, a subject she describes as “one of the last taboos”.
As many as one in six men are thought to suffer physical and mental abuse at the hands of women, yet the topic is widely seen as insignificant or implausible. Says Ms Pizzey: I feel that this kind of violence is one of the last taboos men are reluctant to talk about it, and so are the women who are doing it, said Ms Pizzey, whose father was abused by her mother. Much is known and studied about male violence, but very little is written about women, and any attempt to discuss female violence is met with rabid attacks and howls of ‘blaming the victim’.
