I was recently searching for a dental office and came across a website that showed their entire office staff and it showed 16 women. Nope.

That's stupid. Unless they were like 'A Women-Only Dental Office', a medical office that is female-heavy isn't abnormal. When people are sick they want someone to take care of them - a strong authoritative voice telling them that they will get better, and a soft soothing one to coddle them, just a smidge. 'Matronly' is the word, I think.

If a company has state or federal contracts they are required to hire a percentage of minorities. Construction firms that do state or federal work have to have a certain percentage of minorities. I think most employers are forced to do this or they wouldn't.

I absolutely understand that skin color quotas are the norm for everyone now, but I was referring more to companies and people whose sole claim to fame is not great product, great service, or knowledgeable, friendly staff - it's the proper genital/skin color ratio that's so hot right now.

Lucky for me I haven't consciously ran across this. Hopefully it keeps going over my head.
