Are you seriously proposing a separate but equal argument? Really?I think if women are as capable of doing a job as a man, and with the same competence, they should be paid the same. There is however a physical difference in men and women and a difference in the way they address problems.
Women are better at some things, men are better at other things. Equal, but different.
Christ, does that make me a feminist?
That's what I'm saying. Yes.Are you seriously proposing a separate but equal argument? Really?
Give us an example of what you mean?That's what I'm saying. Yes.
Do you agree that women have a different way of looking at things than men? I mean, have you ever watched toddlers play?Give us an example of what you mean?
Then troll away I suppose.That's what I'm saying. Yes.
I am not following you here. There is more than one way to skin a cat.Do you agree that women have a different way of looking at things than men? I mean, have you ever watched toddlers play?
I think it's pretty well agreed that women, in general, approach problems differently. I believe they've even found a slight difference in brain structure that might account for it. I don't know how that makes you a feminist, though. Or what it has to do with pay.Do you agree that women have a different way of looking at things than men? I mean, have you ever watched toddlers play?
You sound sexistI think if women are as capable of doing a job as a man, and with the same competence, they should be paid the same. There is however a physical difference in men and women and a difference in the way they address problems.

Of course he is. All men are sexists. Everybody knows that.You sound sexist
no-----you said that, not I. His words used sound sexist, in and of themselves.Of course he is. All men are sexists. Everybody knows that.
If a man says men and women are different he is sexist.no-----you said that, not I. His words used sound sexist, in and of themselves.
Not true, IMO. And that was not what Granpappy said.....If a man says men and women are different he is sexist.
Sure it's true. Are you new to political correctness?Not true, IMO.
I always like it when someone is critical of extremists "on both sides of any issue".There are extremists and goombahs on both sides of any issue. If we choose to listen to them we can come up with some pretty warped ideas with which to slam the opposition. But they are shallow and meaningless arguments.
An excellent word, right?I always like it when someone is critical of extremists "on both sides of any issue".
I always like it when someone mentions goombahs too.
I don't know why but I like to say that word. "Goooombahhh"
One of the reasons I didn't pursue post graduate studies was the feminist critiques of English Lit that I read as a 'teaser' in my senior year. People can really get WAY out there. I am certainly an advocate for women but I'm way too moderate for a lot of the theory that's been written out there. Some of it is spot on; we need to question a lot of our assumptions and traditions, though.I always like it when someone is critical of extremists "on both sides of any issue".

Don't know what you're talking about.Hey Mary, it's looking like this thread is not going to be as fun as the one where the older feminist women in the 60s told younger women to dress properly.
Woops, sorry. I guess you weren't in on it.Don't know what you're talking about.
