The "F" word, 23% discount for women, caustic comments, & course concepts


When I saw the rousing (and I would venture caustic) comments on this "Economics of Happiness" picture posted on Facebook (link below), I thought immediately about how this might connect with the "F" word blog post here in our blog (great post by the way), and another WGS 201 student's experience when he suggested (for social sustainability in Sustainable Housing) 23% less rent for women because women make 23% less than men.

Take a look at the "F" word post below in our blog, and the comments on the "Economics of Happiness" FB post (linked below). See if you see some connecting threads that might weave threads of connectivity between these three examples & comments with course concepts for WGS 201.
