Question

Listen. I am need of urgent help.i HAVE DEBATE IN 1 DAY AND NEED ANSWERS. I know (ummm.yea) that women are treated equally but are they? Are they second Class.HHHHEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPP!!!

Answer 1

no, not all.  the trend has changed.  All women nowadays have equalled men in all departments.  It was in the olden days that women were treated below dignity.  women at present have talents which equals men.

Answer 2

See the book: "The Beauty Myth" by Naomi Wolf.

Answer 3

Understand that the traditional "victims" have long since transcended that status, but the organizations and interest groups that profit from them haven't.  Sadly, there are no sunset laws on victimhood.

Answer 4

They are only second class because gender feminists keep TELLING them that they are. Gender feminism has an interest in keeping that BS alive - otherwise, it has no reason to exist.

Perhaps their are inequities, but women have all the same rights as men under the constitution.

Just say that to them and in your closing remarks, say, "I will now walk away, and I suggest that you all have a collective unbunching of your panties."

Answer 5

Depends on the country,

But in the USA they are more equal than men, as the law gives them a lot of priviledges. Both in the letter of the law and in the implementation of the law.

Answer 6

well lets look at the facts. women earn 75 cents to the dollar of men working the same jobs. men are more clustered into top paying positions like managers and CEOs while women are clustered at the lower ends of these jobs or around clerical work. even in women dominated jobs, like nursing where 93% of nurses are currently women, men (specifically white men) make up most of the top paying managerial positions (this phenomena has been described as a glass ceiling preventing women from promotion, corollary to the glass escalator experienced by the man. women are sexualized and objectified by the media and advertisements as objects of male desire, men not depicted in at all comparable ways. they are evaluated by the standards set by the media and are expected to mold to societies narrow definitions of beauty as defined by men. while things are moving in the right direction, the road to equality has many bumps in the road, and the stigmatization of the word feminist has created the false notion that equality has already been achieved.
