| o_O.Q said: i'm just going to point out the 10 000 pound purple elephant in the room that people generally overlook: equality between men and women is a joke because men and women are inherently different men are generally more sexually driven, more physically powerful and more violent whereas women are far more influential than men with regards to the sexual power that they have yes there can be equal rights between men and women and we have achieved that; but this idea that we can achieve a utopia where men and women are equal is fundamentally flawed and again this is an underlying flaw in feminism this idea that there are no significant inherent differences between men and women... that behavior is all conditioned by society no... as with all things in existence there is a mixing of two extremes the environment and biology |
Let me break it down simply for you. Satistics do not speak for individuals. Also equality doesn't mean 50/50. Here is an example: Three people of varying heights are at a baseball game. The fence is high enough that the two shortest individuals can't see over it. In a equal share 50/50 world you would provide a step for everyone that comes to the game. Now the tallest individual is way higher then he needs to be, the second to shortest can now see but the shortest individual still can't. That's not equality, true equality would be providing everyone a chance on equal ground. Here is true equality: The tallest individual doesn't get a step because he can see without it, the medium individual gets one step to see and the third gets two steps so he can be tall enough to see. Now everyone can see and is at equal standings.
It doesn't matter if most men are this and most women are that. People do not conform perfectly. As individuals we have differing skills and backgrounds. People should be judged individually. You have no right to tell me I am "more sexually driven, more physically powerful and more violent" and judge me to those standards just because "generally men are". That mind-set is why men have a disadvantge in things like custody, rape and abuse situations. And speaks to what I said earlier, men hurt other men's rights, not feminism.
I must comment on your later posts. You really lack info about feminism. Not all feminist think the same and there are splits within. Most of your opinions comes from the most narrowed minded people of feminism who don't include PoC, trans, and homosexuals. Look up Inclusive Feminism and also Sex-positive Feminism which doesn't shame sexworkers, kinks and fetishism.
