Do you want me to see you as my equal or as a woman

It is very hard to respect a person who on one day wishes to be looked at as my equal. On the next day when things are difficult she wishes to be looked upon and treated like a woman. This is very complicated but it is making men like myself very reluctant and uneasy around female counterparts.

Also I saw a news story where a woman slapped a man and spit on him while he was eating. The man stood up and punched her one time he broke her jaw. Everyone is angry at the man they say he has abused a woman. Unfortunately in the world that I live in if a man slapped another man and spit on him he would expect to get punched. This once again brings up the question do you want us to look at you as ladies or do you want us to look at you as equals?

The issue here is not, ONLY IF a woman wants to be subjected to punches and physical violence , are they THEN , equal.😐 Whether a man or woman wishes to punch another is their own (often ignorant) choice, but it has no bearing, on if both are 'equal'.

@Coralmist You bring up a very interesting point however a question is why does a woman sometimes behave poorly and expect to be treated differently when it comes to receiving a consequence. Yes I understand there is no need to be ignorant or violent however we know everyone in this world does not follow that saying standard. So if we took punching out of the equation could you answer my question better.

@Capt11 Ok so I'm sure SOME women expect to not get hit back if they act like a spoiled princess and hit a guy. But, then again SOME men expect to have ppl bow down at their feet, esp. women, when THEY 'behaved poorly' ..as you put it. So both genders, can be total obnoxious assholes or bitches. But , are men and women equal ? There's just no questioning or doubting it, in any way. You can' t have one, scientifically, w/out the other. The very NOTION that they were not equal , whoever initially thousands of years ago brought that up, well, it's ludicrous.
