This Sunday's comic strip Non Sequitur by Wiley, is a repeat of a strip that originally ran on June 20, 1999, nearly 24 years ago.


"We are the majority... yet we have little representation in government."

"Men legislate OUR rights on OUR choice of how to handle OUR reproductive system."

"We earn 40% less than men, so we have less for retirement. Little wonder that 3 out of 4 elderly poor are women."

"Breast cancer alone claims more lives than AIDS, yet research money for AIDS is twice that of cancer."

"Women are responsible for 90% of child care... Men are responsible for 90% of sex crimes."

"God is NOT a woman..."


At the end of today's strip, Wiley asks, "How much has changed?"

You got any stats to back this claim up?

I'll hand them this much, they're at least willing to admit their short-comings.

Didn’t think so, because it’s BS.

The OP is yet another one of Suzianne’s “victim cards” straight off the top of the deck.

Seems US women have moved up from 80% to 82% in the last 20 years. So it isn't 40% but it's still significant.

Does anyone have the numbers for non-parents only? That's the interesting statistic.
