This is the problem with viewing things through an individualist lense. Women on the whole tend to be suited to different vocations than men, and therefore it serves the societies best interest to enforce certain stereotypes as a means of preserving stability.

What vocations are we more suited to, and why? Also, it tends to upset stability and hinder progress when you bar people from developing their natural talents and pursuing vocations where they can affect positive change. How would we go about enforcing stereotypes, anyway? Should women be barred from science? Government? Military? Where exactly is their presence causing “instability”?

Stereotypes are usually based on reality. People as a whole benefit from being pushed towards certain vocations.

Stereotypes are exaggerations of perceived notions. Throughout history, women as a whole haven’t tended to benefit from being pushed into the kitchen or whatever else men thought we were suited to.

I had a funny picture with that which made the blatant sexism ok… it didn’t load…

Nvm. It did.

It’s good to know there are catholic women who refuse to be submissive. If I ever get married to a catholic woman, I don’t like the idea that she should be submissive to me. I should have influence over her ( and she over me), but not authority

For me, Feminism = Angry, bitter women who terrify me and who believe are not fundamentally different in any way to men and should act and behave like men, which includes being as selfish and aggressive as possible.

So I will say no. Jesus is not a feminist.

ROFL aggression and selfishness are male traits now? I identify as a feminist, and my opinion of men is nowhere near as low as yours.

This is a separate thread, but men are given a headship over the house that their wives do not share.

They are equal in dignity, but there’s a leadership element there that, if you’re a man, you’re called to fill.

As someone who’s garnered a lot of criticism for saying I won’t be submissive, I’d just like to say: thank you.

Also, brace yourself for “white knight” name-calling.
