Re: Men are better than women?
Yes, we're "for real"; why would we not be?
It just doesn't make any sense that we live in a world where they are seen as equals to us. Dick Masterson made a good point in the video. Let's be rational and look at everything men have done. Oh wait that's everything. It's just truth, and there's no avoiding it. Open your mind, fellow. Look at the facts. |

My point is that there is a SYSTEM in effect here, pushing these groups down. It's not that they are worse at things. It's that they don't get the CHANCE. Ever heard of the glass ceiling? It's not that women can't do anything. It's that there is a system in effect preventing them from doing things. Same with black people. There is a system in effect pushing them down. Those systems are subtle racism and sexism. Hardly anybody is "outright" sexist or racist. We don't go "Man, black people are stupid" (well, not usually. I wouldn't put it past the people in this thread agreeing with Dick.) But underneath the surface, our society is very racist and sexist and there are systems in place preventing blacks and women from doing the things that white men seem to accomplish. Dick's arguments are very deceiving. Sure, most great achievements were done by men. But did you ever notice they are also white old men? I guess you have to be white to do anything good. Aren't asians really smart? Oh but asians don't do any good stuff either. I mean you've got David Suzuki. That's about it. His arguments are deceptively appealing. "Men do all the good things!" Well, yes. White men do do everything. But it doesn't follow from this that men are BETTER than women. It is the way our society is structured. Women are expected to do certain things and men are expected to do other things. Women are put in their place, not explicitly, but implicitly. Think about it. When women act out, they're found to be offensive. Angry women turn everyone off. We don't like them. But angry men with an agenda are respected. They get things done. They don't turn people off. We like men who are standing up for something. But we want women to sit back down and be content with what they've got. Think about a good, female cook. She might be encouraged to be a housewife and provide for her family. She'll be praised for being such a good mother. Everyone raves about her cooking, but they don't encourage her to do anything with it. Now think about a good, male cook. He will probably be encouraged to go to cooking school, learn to compete with the best chefs, and start his own restaurant. Nobody tells him, "Oh, you'll make your children really happy someday. You should be a house-husband and cook for your family." Even if he is an amazing cook, we will probably still expect his wife to cook for the family, ESPECIALLY since he's cooking enough at work and is tired of it. In other words, we encourage men and women to do different things. It's a whole system of things like this that prevents women from achieving. NOT their inherent, inborn qualities. It's societal.

Re: Men are better than women?
I can't honestly believe that somebody had the NERVE to post this. Who cares who's better? "men vs women" is exactly like "boys vs girls" COMPLETELY CHILDISH! I personally think this guy should experience the most painful death in existence. For example. Look at a man and a woman living alone by themselves. The man's house is probably a pig stye, he probably eats our at a restaurant 4-7 days in a week, goes through a bunch of beer, the only thing he respects (if he respects anybody at all) are his "sport-heroes" because they do SO much to make the world a better place, covets his little dolls (oops I mean vintage-action figures) and probably has a low-life job. A woman's house will be spotless, she will be cooking her own food, going grocery shopping. Why would her house be so clean, may you ask? Because she doesn't get her drinking buddies around the house to watch sunday night football. Also take for example. Over 80% of the people in jail are MEN (rapists, con-artists, murderers). I'm not saying that women are better than men (otherwise I would be as low as this guy). Im saying I just don't care who's better. Nobody should. Men are equal to women. END OF STORY.

I think this video is an absolute piece of crap. And go ahead, TELL me that I am taking this too seriously, but it was posted in Chit-Chat, so it wasn't going to be taken lightly anyway. By the way, I am also male too. Honestly, why this was posted, I have no clue. |
