Can you imagine having to fly with some of those people? Jesus.

Yes, almost as fun as working with a "woke" FO who gets triggered when you wish the passengers a Merry Christmas.

There are quite a few who don't make it to a dream job -- and it's not all luck.

Well said. I’ve also found that the few people I’ve flown with that make stupid comments like “A monkey could do this job, lol!” are almost always weak pilots.

It doesn’t take a genius intellect to make it to the top, but unless you’re incredibly lucky it does take a lot of effort and above average intelligence to navigate all of the obstacles along the way. Even then, like you said the unlucky ones may never get a shot for whatever reason.

Would you trade your lily-white skin or your gentleman sausage for a few hundred seniority numbers? Go ahead, I’ll wait.

This goes out to the 2 Cockpit crew members of UA flight 6383 operated by Mesa on Saturday morning. Talking loud enough that the entire first half of the airplane could hear how immature you are and with their lack of regard to inappropriate language was just awesome. I salute your professionalism.

So then you admit there is biased against white males on the hiring boards of the Majors, but white males shouldn't care about it because of all the other perceived advantages they get in life?

Well at least we are finally getting people to admit the truth, having a vajajay or toned skin gets you more points with the hiring boards. Thanks for confirming that "Gucciboy" lol.

Did I say I have white skin? Just cause I’m stating the truth doesn’t mean I am of European heritage.

Edit to add:
Sorry to derail, and will not respond to replies, maybe we need a "the difficulties white males face minorities and females know nothing about" on the Part 91 and Low Time forum. /end edit

First of all , I identify as a snowflake, and I will admit the truth:

It is nowadays much easier for a female pilot to get hired than it is for a male.

Having gotten that admission of my my flat chest, if you look at the pilots getting hired, over 95% are still white male, so if not a single minority was hired your chance would go up a whopping 5%. You shouldn't care because it hardly affects you.
