Why men have to earn more money than women

Good morning my dear readers,

Today I'm gonna address the topic why it is, at least in my opinion, fair that men earn a little bit more money than women when they perform the same job. Let me explain why.

First of all, don't get me wrong and think "what the hell is HE talking about?!..we live in the 21st century with emancipation and equal rights etc etc..". Well listen to this: Did u ever go out clubbing somewhere and did u notice that most of the time the women don't need to pay for the cover? Did u notice that men sometimes have to pay the double price just because they are MEN?? It never happened to me before in Germany but here in the US, especially Hollywood, men always have to pay more which is not fair ;) What reason justifies this discrimination??
Besides, when the girls are pretty or when they war a short dress they not only get in for free but sometimes they can also jump the queue /(or cut the line for my American readers ;) ).

And then there is also this thing called "dating"...Who pays for the dinner? The man...who pays for the cinema? The man..Who invites the girl for a drink? The man...
In this regard, I think we're still a lil bit-old fashioned ;)..I suggest that we should do it sometimes the other way round, like in Usher's song trading places: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_7EKr5a82k&ob=av2e

I hope u can open the video..I know it's sometimes a little bit problematic to watch videos on youtube in Germany. Anyways, tell me what you think about my opinion ;)

So last week I went to a thing called Midnight Madness which was the "inofficial" start of the basketball season! Yahooo :-) The gym was crowded (approximately 500 ppl) and there was also a dj, a dunk contest, and a three-point shootout. Check out the pictures to get a good impression of the event. Funnily, during the event, the dj played a few good songs and suddenly everybody went on the basketball court and started dancing...somehow all the black people know a common dance because everybody did and knew the same dance moves. It's just amazing if 100-200 people are in sync and do the same moves :-) Something like this could never ever happen in Germany. We are too serious and shy to do something like that :-)


Oh, by the way, I nearly forgot to mention that Dave and Martin are going to visit me in one week!!! Yay, I'm really looking forward it..We're gonna have an awesome good time! The first thing we're gonna do is go to Las Vegas for the weekend ;) I'll keep you up-to date and upload a few pictures as soon as we're there. But work before pleasure, which means that I have to study for my Spanish exam next Monday but after that I can fully enjoy the time with them.

Have a good time and don't forget to put your winter tires on in Germany haha :-)

PS: Who can tell me what that picture represents/stands for? One hint: I took it in Hollywood...
