Dont get me wrong. I don't hate women or something. I just got bored and thought of it. I mean it worked for thousands of years and suddenly women want to have more rights. Why? And why now?

They just want equal rights I guess. Nothing wrong with that.

It's gotten so bad that pretty soon men will have to complain for equal rights

in Denmark men get paid more than women in general. It's something most people won't talk about, the only thing they want to talk about is how much women get screwed and want more rights and get paid the same as men.

@55,441yep, same in norway. im in no way a feminist but if you do the same job you should get the same money. also here more women get higher education, but more men are in leader positions. cant be that most women dont aim for a job like that, that would be weird.
so sure, we can vote and theres nothing wrong with a male studying to become a nurse and a woman to become a construction worker, but whats the point if theres different pay? also, my friend was refused at a job as baker because the manager didnt think girls were strong enough for the job.. (we're talking 20 kg flour sacks here) if he was in doubt, he could have given her a trial day.

I agree that there are some areas that women are still discriminated against here in the US but its gotten to the point that if someone makes a freakin joke about a women steriotype or somethin everyone attacks that person. Everyone is so worried about offending anyone these days, especially femminists…

@55,454As far as leadership positions, I think such things as charisma are generally rooted in testosterone, and women typically just don't have much.

OP, I would not think of it as women wanting more rights but instead more privileges. Rights, from my understanding, often bring increased responsibility, or are at least supposed to. I rarely see women actually ask for more responsibilities but they often use the word 'rights'. Specifically 'Equal rights'. Complete Equality is completely impossible between two sexes that are so different that they could be considered separate subspecies. It is not just the social bias from an individual that prevents equality, but everything from the physiological to psychological differences stand between the equality of both women and men. To alter the phrase for cultural differences; this was just my £0.02.

Women don't want MORE rights OP, they simply want men to have LESS rights.

My mother told me something from a text book about predictions of the future world, she said that according to the predictions. There is going to be less men in the workplace. So we went from women being in the domesticated state all the way to a gender reversal so to speak. This was a prediction about the world of 2050, and by then I might be married with children. As much as I would like this, mostly because I always wanted to be in a sort of feminine role. I feel so uncomfortable about this, because I guess it was because I was raised Catholic and it was planted in my head that men are suppose to work and women stay at home. Then again, I don't know because my mother never read the Bible.

Right on the money.

All sexists. No wonder you all are lonely fucking basement dwelling nerds. Why do you want women not to have the same rights as men? Can you make a cogent argument for keeping women down? Why?

@55,674I for one do not very care, if it does turn out there will be less men in the workplace and society becomes female dominated. That just means I could live the domesticated lifestyle that woman used to be, which I always wanted to be a woman for anyways. However when you were raised a Catholic and you get this seed that men are overly greater then women, it's hard to get used too. Which probably is the reason why I desire to be female. I fucking hate getting something stuck in my brain. I'd be alive by 2050 anyways, I might even be married so if I wanted to stay at home while my wife provides. I could probably do it. However thanks to my mother who planted the idea of men > women because she was Catholic, makes it harder for me to adjust too. Jesus, why couldn't I have been born a woman! :(

@55,674I don't think any of us here want to "keep woman down." It's just that men and women are so different (mentally and physically), that it's hard to provide a completely level playing field. The best example that comes to mind is construction. Women just aren't cut out for that. Should a construction company be forced to hire a bunch of women, just because they want to?
