Gender equality? Who wants it?

[spinner2020]

Even women don't like it:

 

https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2020/mar/05/nine-out-of-10-people-found-to-be-biased-against-women

 

 

“91% of men and 86% of women hold at least one bias against women". So just who is still pushing the female-first myth and what is the hidden agenda?

 

Isn't it time to give it up and stop all this cr@p?

[OneMoreFarang]

I also just read that article. Unfortunately the Guardian does not allow comments. I guess they know why...

 

Personally I think men and women should have the same chances to do what they want to do. If they want to study or be a nurse or a pilot then fine, let them learn that profession. And then of course the better performers should get the better jobs.

 

The problem is that some people still pretend women and men think and act equal. That is obviously not true - but in some places it seems to be already a crime just to mention that maybe men and women are not equal. They are different. That does not mean one or the other is better. Just different.

 

If women really want to be equal then I think we should first abandon those old fashion things like gender separated sports events. Especially for sports likes playing pool where physical strength does not matter men and women should all compete together. 

And then there are those antiquated rules like in emergencies women and children should be rescued first. Why? And why should men go to war and fight with weapons and women not?

 

Somehow it seems many women pretend they want to be treated like equals but in reality they wants special rights and quotas just for women. What a stupid idea!

looking around how messed up this world is should speak volumes on how lousy men are at doing their jobs..

I am for Equality, period. So I'd love to see less discrimination and derogatory attitudes against elderly gentlemen. Whether they enjoy the company of younger ladies or not.

Behind most men there is a woman, and most boys are raised by a woman. Western school teachers are almost entirely female as few men willing to risk being accused of something bad.

I was a nurse and there is a difference between men and women- women stab their enemies verbally, while men use fists. Otherwise, not much difference at all- some good, some bad. I was never treated differently, but I got paid less than I should have been because nurses get less pay than they should- the reason is because they won't go out on strike as readily as men.

 

I agree that gender based sports should go.

 

Military women do go into harms way almost as much as men now because there are no front lines any more.

Women with an agenda.

And how high is the chances that women with do it better - especially women how only have the job because of some quota?

 

Personally I know a couple of competent female managers. And I know competent male managers. They all exist now already. Qualified women get good jobs without any quota.

As long as the woman does all the house work, cooks the food on time and does anything I want in bed I would definitely not beat her.

I'd be happy with the same chance of keeping my home and children as she does.

So true, the law is skewed more and more in favour of women.

 

Also because senior female lawyers make a concerted effort to mold the law in this way, it's shameless.

Hope this doesn't include special rights for third++ gender(s) or supra rights for homosexuals. These people already enjoy exactly the same rights as the rest of us. They just choose to look at it differently.

So women compete directly against men in, say, athletics, soccer, rugby? Fine, bring it on. That should stop them whining.

Doesn't seem to be the case in the Public Service in Australia. Seems every department is headed by a woman.

Does this apply to sharing clothes,i cant with my new girl she is too petite the ex wife was bigger.

[AlienHermit66]

Do it if you can do it, and do it right, and shut the <deleted> up. That's my credo. As a percentage, narcissistic power tripping males in positions of power are probably lower than the percentage of women in positions of power who are abusive, narcissistic, and domineering. I've had more than my fair share of these women. Be a human being, and treat others like they are human beings. Of course, that's asking too much from a woman on a power trip and an axe to grind. 

 

Fact is, men respect a woman who chooses to be a pilot, train driver, engineer, mechanic, or whatever other male-dominated profession. What men have a problem with is abusive women who are on a power trip, just like the same men would have a problem with a man who was the same way.

There are sports were people need coordination skills, precision and brain. And then there are other sports which can be won by people with IQ 80 if they just train the same again and again and again. I know which kind I prefer. ????

I am sure some girls pay for it. But maybe don't ask yourself why they don't ask you, not even 10/90 or you won't feel good about it. ????

But don't feel too bad about it, you are not alone.

Women are always complaining that men look on them as sexual objects, then they wear skimpy tight clothing in sports like beach volleyball and athletics! I don't see male athletes wearing budgie smugglers to make their bits seem larger.
