sexist? u just want especially good treatment WITHOUT treating us any better.
I think the fact a lot more women sleep around now compared to 40 years ago, and tolerate porn used both by their BF or used in general, proves that women are highly tolerent of men.
The reason men think they do it tough is because all of their institutions and preconceived notions about society established over the past 1000 years are now being challenged by 100 years of women's lib. Maybe it's just that men aren't very good at accepting change.
Although I do concede that young males need proper role models. Sporting figures aren't this as the sex scandals have proven time and time again. With marriages crumbling (I blame that on too higher standards by both sexes, too easy to get married, too easy to get out, and pre-marital sex) many displaced young males don't have a fatherly figure. Institutions that used to provide this- like scouts or church groups- remain under suspicion because of a history of paedophiles using them to target children.
And yes, a lot of what I've read on this topic is sexist.
u want sexual equality? courts will always treat females better.
No, rape cases mostly either never go to court, or the ones that do it is very hard to prove. Men designed the court system and it sits in their favour. A more women-driven model would be the way Corie courts work in Australia, where there's a lot more discussion within the Aboriginal community groups about the crime and punishment is agreed to rather than forced upon the accused. Also, provocation was a defence in some Australian court rooms until five years ago to domestic violence. The legal system is historically sexist in the west.
u want sexual equality? why do women get a free pass at earning cash just by offering sex?
A while back there was an article in the free newspaper about Paris Hilton being the new feminist. No, she's just a ho. And so is Kim Kardishan. They're sluts. But men can be sluts too, it's just society label it otherwise.
u want sexual equality? or do you just want improvements to yourself without consideration to what you already have and what others are going through? what is sexual equality? does it ensure I will have an equal chance of getting my kids if i go through a divorce? will i be able to show my hairy body one day and ask for money for sex?
You seen to be arguing that women have the upper hand when they can sell their bodies for sex. The overwhelming evidence is that women who appear in porn and go into prostition and other parts of the sex industry, do so because they need the money and they can't get it any other way; or they were sexually abused as children. Jenna Jamerson was abused. So was Katie Price. If they had a choice they wouldn't go into the sex industry. Or, if they wern't abused and society had adequate support mechinisms for victims of child abuse, then there would be a lot less women out there like Jenna Jamerson. The sex industry only exists because men demand it. If all men stopped using porn tomorrow, stopped visiting strip clubs, stopped paying prostitutes, there would be no market and no supply. I believe legislatively the best way to deal with prostitution is to put liability on the clients- like in Sweden. Use a prostitute over there, and YOU get prosecuted.
Some women use "giggalos". But society still stigmatizes women who seek out sex as skanks and hoes. Yes, I called Paris and Kim hoes, and I don't appologise- sex shouldn't be before marriage/civil unions, for both genders. It would solve a lot of problems. Women also tend to get emotionally attached more easily when having sex with someone, they don't do it for the same reasons men do.
Australian laws have changed to encourage courts to give more equal custody. If you have an issue with the legislation in your area concerning apportionment of custody, I suggest you join a fathers' group that lobbies governments on that issue, or do lobbying yourself. Primarily why women get custody is historical, that women do most rearing of children.
sexual segregation exists because of biological and physical differences in the physical bodies of the two sexes, due to a chemical difference in development which also causes a mentality separation of both sides...throw a male and a female baby on an island without any sort of external influence, and they'll still grow up that way. it's PHYSICAL. doesn't excuse EVERYTHING that guys do, but it will be around like the sun will shine. so stop whining. u can't stamp it out. not without pulling off the gonads of every single guy in the world.
Women and men reproductive functions have devoloped over 1000's of years. Men to be the hunters and gatherers, women to rear the young. That's undisputable. It's why we have seperate events in the olympics so women have a chance at winning. But arguing women can't do SOMEthings because of that fails. It fails because women have been proving that argument wrong for 80 years. Men said "women are sensitive, they need makeup breaks, blah blah" in the 1950s in pamphlets on management. Yeah, bullcrap. Women are more sensitive. Yes. But we can do the vast majority of professions, and are better than men in a number of professions. Women can do engeneering. Computer programming. They can be world leaders. They can drive trains. What they're not so good at is certain physical jobs or jobs that require withstanding high temperatures. Women aren't so good at being solar car drivers where the temp gets to 60c inside. Or doing train track work on 40c days, bashing the tracks back in place when they warp. Or being brickies. But as has been proven, women dominate the education sector. The key reason women aren't in more places is because, men developed the modern working environmnet over a period of 150 years and it is not conductive to women. When women go have children, they lose their position. When they try to balance work and child rearing, they comprimise their career. Employers don't provide maternity leave, nor child care services. Work places are therefore stacked against women, and it probably starts at the hiring stage- when some employers judge potential female employees based on when they're likely to need time off to have children (without saying it of course)
so stop being so bloody sensitive. sexism exists because it has to. one day when we merge into big pink unisex slugs, sexism will go away by itself.
Sexism is a product of society and conditioning, like racism and other forms of bigotry. Unless you would argue that racism has to exist, as does other forms of bigotry.
go burn ur bra if u have to,
Bra burning is SOOooo 1974...and I like mine thank you
Besides, now we have the internet, equal opportunity legislation and litigation.
we all know it's there, and not everyone on the other side likes being there either. so shhhhhhhhhhh.
Many men go through sex change operations, not many women go through them tho...
