Gender equality is a joke. What do you think?

Let me explain before you start commenting stuff. If you didn't read the whole thing and you start commenting... I don't know. Ill reply with whatever. Anyways From what I see, It's not about giving women opportunity and a fair play, it's about treating them like hyped up blowup dolls who can do everything a man can do. So that means if the men are winning a fair competition in any category, succeeding more so to speak. It's a problem and we need to help these damsels to help feed their ego. Gender equality is basically just helping women to have more of an ego. More results to something they don't deserve.
Lets give an analogy:
There in existence is two people. Person A and Person B. We give both equal opportunity in this world of free will. We don't give a damn if they're A or B. Just do it correctly and you will get there. But then suddenly. Person A is complaining suddenly saying it's outrageous that Person B can do more work that's better and giving every excuse in the book and instead of trying harder to achieve those results like a genuine ethical person. They demand special privileges for themselves. Person A now has their own category.[b] Now Person A and B no longer have equal opportunity.[/b] They have equal results though. Should we as people treat them equally then? I mean they both are in a position that we have to assume they reached fairly. But no they didn't. We all know Person A had short cuts because of the priviliges they demanded. We all know the true person who reached there through hard work and talent was Person B. Now you could say there are people like Person A who reached the heights of Person B but it's muddled by this now UNEQUAL opportunity that is unfair to Person B. I don't believe in giving you a reward because you gave me tears of pain. I don't believe in giving you in what you DON'T deserve because you're weak. I believe in giving to those who deserve it. Who tried hard and reached the sky and even farther. I'm sorry but that is not women. Not now at least. They are respected not because they're equal to men but because they are weaker than men. They use to be respected for the genuine work they did in the past. But now it's considered more of an insult than anything and we more value hard working women. But what is their to value if the only reason we value these women is because we feel bad for them. We feel bad so we have to help them. There are probably women who jumped through great heights to earn their position like judge judy for example. But its muddled by the mess we allowed. In order to give women a bigger ego. Men are awesome and so are women but this shit isn't equal. It's a mess and you expect everyone to agree with it and view a man who didn't need gender quotas, didn't need their genitals, didn't need a womans help. To get where they are now. NOW they have to lower themselves and give their hardwork to women in order to help them and the worst part is a lot of women have no respect for them, and think it's their fault. The past had gender roles for a reason! We didn't have the amount of technology, free time. To mess with our lives in order to experiment with genders. It was always easier for women and men to have specific roles to what they were GOOD at. Sorry not sorry.

You're trying to take a specific example to say that gender equality is a joke but that's a fallacy since there's many different situations that lead people to come to that conclusion. Both men and women have their stereotypes, their all apart of a certain system that instills those positions since we were born.

@SatanBurger You either didn't read it all the way or you just skimmed it.

@SatanBurger Actually, there is evidence to suggest that we are born into certain social positions/roles rather than having them programmed into us after birth.

Female babies from birth are more interested in people and faces, whereas male babies are more interested in 'things' like mobiles and colours.

@Quizzical I'm just mainly saying I believe social norms and environment play a considerable pressure on us today that I believe lead to inequality. That's just my opinion.

@SatanBurger It's unlikely to be widely available as it was rather controversial at the time. I think there is a very interesting woman who presents a Tedtalk or something similar on the subject.

There are certainly issues in society, I grant that. But the notion that men and women are completely equal is just incorrect, or at least, incorrect usage and understanding of the term.

A square and a triangle may have the same 'equal' surface area, but they are just not the same.

You wouldn't for example try and use a triangle to balance a shelf upon, but it would have it's uses elsewhere.

It's the same with men and women. We are each good at different things, and to imply that we are all just as good as each other at the same things is ridiculous.

@Quizzical I get your point on the last part about being good at different things. I'm sure someone who is good at math will find themselves in a different career than let's say someone who's not.

However I just don't think things are black and white. There's things like top female martial artists for one. For those things you have to train your body (men have to also,) which show that certain physical things can be done.

For instance if a man who couldn't fight went to go pick on a female who knew martial arts and won titles, they'd be laid out in a matter of minutes.

@SatanBurger Yes, but put a top male martial artist up against a female and she will get her ass handed to her nine time out of ten.... The guy is just biologically more suited to combat

@SatanBurger Lets not start comparing a woman and mans strength lol. Men are stronger. There is a reason we separate them in sports! Lol. It's like you women want some brownie points by picking out minorities. Theirs a lady who kicked a 80 year old man to the ground. I mean yes there are cases but comparing women and men. No. If we had to. As again we have to lower men to a lower standard in order for a female to compete with him. Men and Women are different in their own way.

@SatanBurger A women can not compete with a man on a same level. We always have to lower them mentally and physically.

@prawntobewild most of the time. but of course women have an excuse for it. its seems they have excuses for everything.

@PiceousPanda I don't claim to be a boxing champ by no means but I'm in boxing myself even though I've taken a small break. When we spar with males we are all on equal footing. My boxing instructor doesn't bring females down like you and others do and he's a male.

So no it's not "always," I've seen fights with women against males and their both pretty equal because technique, training and heart have a lot to do with it.
PiceousPanda · 22-25, F
@SatanBurger Of course but you know how one winner wins? Theyre generally stronger. Serena Williams for example. Look at her built. Should we give her, her own category because shes built stronger. I am not bringing women down. YOUR bringing women down. I dont place women and men as equal so i dont see one as below the other. Since u do. U have to blind yourself and expect everyone to treat you like a toddler and say ur equal while at the same time ur not. It makes no sense. Gneral rule is you dont fight someone whos 6 foot if ur 5 foot. Not because this person based on biological standards could be stronger you cannot fight them. It is a women and male thing! Im not bringing women down because i know both have different qualities their good at. AND yes most males love women. How surprising? Am i suppposed to be surprised. Men always seen women as a priority. Its nothing new.
PiceousPanda · 22-25, F
@SatanBurger I don't understand. So we have to give women baby talk and pretend their equal. I wasn't in on this. That this whole equality thing is fake and were supposed to fake it to bring a womens ego up. who would have known! When it doubt when facts trumpet. Just cry. You will get ur knights lifting u up as always.
SatanBurger · 36-40, F
@PiceousPanda Regarding baby talk, I think you're over-exaggerating. That's OK you're not "in on this," if we just went with people who were bothered by others fighting against discrimination and other violations we'd literally get nowhere.

[quote]You will get ur knights lifting u up as always.[/quote]

True story knights actually were mercenaries that raped and killed women, that sounds more like your thing. Yeah you're not the only one who can be patronizing 😏
PiceousPanda · 22-25, F
@SatanBurger How is it patronizing? I want women to be raped and killed... I'm female lol. But i guess I apparently enjoy it according to u
SatanBurger · 36-40, F
@PiceousPanda I love how you twist my words when I use the same tone as you, it's OK I see you troll 😎
PiceousPanda · 22-25, F
@SatanBurger alright.
