I’ve been here a few months.

But how odd that the qualities that would be considered “women’s strengths” are the less valued in society, but the ones that are considered “men’s strengths” are the ones society is structured around. I guess that’s not “man-made”, though (/sarc). And there can be differences without value judgments attached.

I don’t care to discuss this any further, as we are obviously light years apart on the issue. I will continue to point out misogyny when I see it, however. I will mention, though, that it’s amazing how overtly racist statements aren’t tolerated, here and in society, but blatently sexist statements are.

I don't think things like bearing children are valued any less, simply valued differently than, say, physical strength on the battlefield. It's important to procreate so we have a future generation, but it's equally important to protect our freedoms so our future generations remain free.

Be my guest, but here we don't like to whitewash the fact that there are differences in sex and race. Blacks are, on average, better athletes than whites. So what? Men are, on average, stronger than women. So? It's genetic predisposition and biology - not something to take offense to. This is why political correctness is stupid.

Could not help but notice from your posting history that you come across as a militant feminazi. Not a feminist, suffragette, or woman’s rights advocate. I smell a man hating woman with an agenda on FR. The repeated condescension and hostility towards others is shocking. A rather liberal perspective plastered all over a conservative forum. Just sayin’.

Please. It's all you're here to discuss, sister.
