Men and women will never be equal[/quote]
Best to leave it there. Neither side really wants it. Women say they want equality but only when there is a benefit, do not equality if they loose benefits.[/quote]
Oh yup, totally, ALL women are like this. Uh huh. Crazy thing is, when you went around polling every woman in the world about this topic, you forgot to talk to me, and a bunch of my (also female) friends, so… time to get out that clipboard and try again bucko![/quote]
Yeah, I think when you list out all the items of true equality, like women in combat and others, most will pass on those, bitcho![/quote]
I don’t believe men or women should be forced to serve in the military, sunshine. But since it’s an imperfect world, I believe there’s absolutely no reason men should be forced to do it, and not women.
I also believe that female firefighters shouldn’t have lighter physical strength requirements than men. They should be held to the same standards as the men are, and if that means they can’t serve, so be it.
I also believe both partners should pay for stuff equally in a dating relationship (as I do with my boyfriend).
I also believe that household/family duties shouldn’t be prescribed due to sex/gender, but rather by talent, ability and desire.
That’s how I was raised, and I’m sticking to it. I think it’s the best way to be.
And I say this as a moderator, please debate ideas rather than calling people names. I know that I have often fallen short of this ideal, myself, and feel pretty stupid about it later.
The overall quality of the forum is reduced when it becomes a slugfest. I’ve had a couple of people call attention to these sort of posts---- and SIIIIIIGH- I just fucking hate the idea of editing someone else’s words. I’m probably going to have to, someday. I just…bleeeeeeh. I like free speech.
And let’s face it, if you’re calling people names in your post, your overall credibility as a poster is reduced.
