Why are there so many questions about women and equality from men?

Question

Why don't they understand that women are just as good as they are and should be treated equally? Why are they so bitter about this and refuse to accept it, and continue to put women down?

I'm not trying to be rude towards men,it's just that I see 20 questions a day about, are women as strong as men, as smart as men, etc., etc., and it doesn't make any sense, don't people know better by now, that women and men are equals?

Answer 1

Typically it is the women that raise these questions....

In reality, I have seen very few instances where women are NOT treated as equals to men. The few exceptions are when women are treated BETTER than men, simply because the men can get burned for not doing so.

example: My father was passed up for a promotion to a woman with half the experience as him, simply because they needed more women numbers in that level of management. If your response is "good for her!" that is simply wrong, as she was not the most qualified for the position, by a long shot. So in this instance, the man (my father) and the woman were not treated equally, instead, because of political reasons, the woman was treated much better.

So stop bitching about it, as you asking this question, is just adding yet ANOTHER equality question that people have to answer...

Answer 2

Because they are trolling and trying to get responses out of people.

Just ignore them.

EDIT: Ladeebug, why is that?

Answer 3

I agree with drkAngel, alot of the questions are probably just guys trying to stir the pot in the "womens issues"  or fish for "entertaining ?answers

Answer 4

Men are competitive, and they're bored (like most people who post on YA).  They're just digging for a reaction from people, don't give it to them and they won't do it. You know that you're not of less value than a man just because you're a woman, so don't let it get to you.  

Answer 5

I know this will probably p**s a lot of women off but I do not by any means want to be considered a mans equal...

Answer 6

The true...no some people still dont know any better that includes both men and women.

Oh the guys who post such questions dont hate women...only feminist.  So they arnt bashing you or females in general at all...just us feminist. Or so they claim...just go cook and clean, they will be nice to you then.

Answer 7

I don't know where you come up with this sort of paradigm because I have worked with women for a year at my work place (no men at all except for me).  And almost everyday I would hear complaints about guys. Constantly.  All they did all day were concentrate on the differences between men and women, instead of living with them.  Who cares! We are different and that is a fact!  Maybe I'm super biased because I had to listen to female co-workers do nothing but bash men for a whole year.

Yes there are lots of dumb men out there, but there are just as many dumb women.  Why are women so concerned about being "equal" to men? Why can't they take pride in being a woman instead of concentrating on the differences and why men have it better.  Life is what you make it, and whining about it doesn't help anybody.

I know I'm gonna get serious hate mail for this, but I'm fed up 100% with men bashing.

I know women who take pride in being women and who are respected for it!  So it's not like impossible.

And aren't you stereotyping with your assumption here? Something that women accuse men of doing all the time?

Answer 8

TBH there are spare few people who truly believe that women are lesser and dont deserve equality.

95% of the people saying that are trolls that try to provoke rises out of people, such as this question.

I used to post questions such as yours, i quit a while ago, since i had the above revelation.

Answer 9

VERY nicely said, Melissa.

those men are probably just scared by the threat of powerful women nowadays and are so low and shallow that they have to go on the internet to tell women that they are useless.

These men are what we could call Compulsive Liars. (and scared)

hey we walk alone, you may be fed up with men bashing, but as long as men are talking trash about women..... suck it up.

Answer 10

Those guys are just trying to get us women angry. They are just dumb. Those guys are just making ALL men look bad. So they are effecting themselves not women. If someone says they are superior because of gender that means they are not. That's what they are doing.
