Should women be treated as equals

[misstherese]

I’m assuming you’re replying to me. Every person has beliefs. You likely won’t find studies done by liberals because they don’t care; they have no reason to.

From Wikipedia,

Mitchell Langbert examined variations in political party registration in 2018, describing a higher concentration of [Democrats] in elite liberal arts institutions in the northeast, and found more Democrats among female faculty than male faculty. He also found the greatest ratio of Democrats to [Republicans] in interdisciplinary studies and the humanities, and the lowest ratio in professional studies and science and engineering.[[37]]

Focusing specifically on social psychology academics, a 2014 study found that “y 2006, however, the ratio of Democrats to Republicans had climbed to more than 11:1.”[[16]] The six authors, all from different universities and members of the [Heterodox Academy] also said, by 2012, “that for every politically conservative social psychologist in academia there are about 14 liberal psychologists” [Steven Pinker] described the study as "one of the most important papers in the recent history of the social sciences.”

Yes, it’s the social sciences. Liberalism in the past few years has mostly aligned with Marxist views. Many are socialists. Many people my age (I’m 20) are socialists, something I used to be as well. But many don’t call themselves Marxists and many don’t call themselves socialists either. That doesn’t mean that they aren’t. The belief that the class structure must be broken down and everyone should have equality of outcome is very socialist. It is also a very liberal idea. At what point a liberal becomes a socialist, I don’t know. But the two definitely aren’t too different from each other.

If a woman thinks she needs personal autonomy then she needs to mention it to the man before the wedding…

Excuse me dear. I hope you won’t mind me asking. I mean, if it’s allright with you and it’s not too much trouble. I was just thinking, out aloud really, that perhaps, if you’d possibly consider it, that you might allow me a certain amount of…um…personal autonomy. You know, when I become your wife.

If that’s allright with you…? No, no need to let me know now. Perhaps if you could just mull it over in your own time and maybe let me know your decision when you are good and ready.

Thank you. Thanks…I hope I wasn’t disturbing you. I’ll…just get back to the ironing now if that’s OK. Would you like another beer in the meantime?

Well there is good education and there is bad education.

There is also education that helps the world, helps families and people personally and there is education which is a waste of time and even harmful to a persons growth.

When a man and woman marries they become one. The Ms movement did not like that. They wanted independence, separation. They no longer wanted to be one.

Aaaand here’s the issue that people refuse to acknowledge.

Both unmarried and married men are called Mr (their name). Unmarried and married women have different names on top of the fact that married women take in their husbands names as well. Even to the point where she would be referred to as Mrs John Smith.

You can’t say that this shows that married couples are one, since there’s no male equivalent. If there had been a separate term for married men or if they were addressed as Mr Jane Smith just like how women were, feminists would not have bothered with Ms. It doesn’t show that they are one, it shows a certain relationship where she’s taken/under someone which doesn’t extend to men with wives.

This common theme keeps popping up everywhere. Women who seek some sort of independence are told that they are being divided, even though they are basically behaving like their male counterparts.

Women work long hours and miss a school play, she’s putting career in front of her family.

Men do the same, he’s putting his family first by providing.

Women refuse to take on his last name, she’s refusing to acknowledge that they are one unit.

Men do not take on anything from the wife, nobody says anything because it’s not even seen as abnormal in the first place.

My wife the JP2 theologian would say, yes, yes, yes, #2, yes.

“Should women be treated as equals?” Well, of course not. They are not equal… They ARE superior. Should be treated accordingly. While not every man might admit it - every man does know it.

Warning: Reading feminist literature may produce hallucinations, confusion, disorientation and irrational babbling.

 

[Edgar]

Men and women are equal

Men are women are equal
[/quote]What do you mean by “equal”?

And how do you know men and women are “equal”? Can you measure equality? Is there some kind of instrument that does that - an equaliometer, perhaps? What unit of measurement is equality expressed in?

May I ask if you have any daughters?

No, but if I did I would say to my daughter(s), “Sorry, but if you want to go to university, you’ll have to pay for it yourself, as I won’t be offering you any financial assistance. If I did, I would be guilty of aiding and abetting the feminist destruction of society.”

At which point, she would get scholarships, grants or loans like every other person has, whose parents couldn’t or wouldn’t pay for college. Unless you mistakenly believe you would have been able to flex your father powers since birth and mold her into the perfect edgarian thinker who will sit at home waiting for a perfect edgarian thinking husband to come knock on your door.

What do you mean by “equal”?

Equal in worth, value, and dignity in the eyes of God.

even though they are basically behaving like their male counterparts.

Why is it women need to act, be or behave like men? Is it the spirit of envy? Why do we not celebrate our womanhood?
I dont find your argument that feminists are just behaving like men encouraging. It doesn’t pull me to support the feminist movement. I am not a man.

It’s a fact that, in general, the more a woman is educated, the less offspring she tends to have. This is one reason why many Islamic societies are vehmently opposed to the education of females

There are anabaptist “protestant” denominations who are opposed to the higher education of women also because of the realization of the harm it can cause the family and motherhood.

But it’s totally ok for your sons to go?

 

[jlc2k2]

So you don’t care if your sons are brainwashed in your opinion?

Ain’t nothing wrong with being brainwashed by truth

 

[jlc2k2]

So you think the same colleges that teach women radical Marxist feminism teach men traditional Catholic values?

 

[Sarcelle]

Good point.

 

[niceatheist]

74% of women favor gender equality yet only 9% of women consider themselves feminists

Only 74%? Sounds way too low. I would say at least 90% of today women have been well and truly brainwashed by feminism. The other 10% are probably elderly women, who weren’t so affected by the madness that broke out in the 1960’s.

It’s interesting that most feminists (ie, the vast majority of women) don’t think of themselves as feminists.

You know, I find this kind of trolling about as funny as faux-racist posting.

 

[edwest211]

That is not true.

 

[edwest211]

Sad that anyone would use such a tactic.

 

[Bradskii]

That is not true.

What you said earlier needs an explanation.

Uh, says Ed.

Oh, sorry says Bradski. I was just too lazy to use the quote function so a random comment like that obviously makes no sense whatsoever when it contains no context.

Let’s try to do better, shall we?
