    I read that study too about how slouching (bad posture) is discrimination against women and leads to things like rape and wage disparities and was like, "OK this one has to be a joke," but nope it's a real thing with feminists. They call it, "manspreading"...LOL

    Feminist gender theories are at least as bizarre as the Nazi race theories.

    If you believe there is women's work and men's work then why is , "men's work," paid less than, "women's work?"

    Why aren't construction workers paid as much as Doctors, Lawyers, CEO's, Actresses, Musicians, Politicians....????

    It had nothing to do with machismo. It was international politics and money (war is good for business) and patriotism to a certain extent. NOBODY wanted to die or get maimed in Vietnam.

    It's anyting did a man does that's considered a micro aggression. I wouldn't be surprised if within the next 5 or 10 years feminism doesn't die they will be angry at men for breathing.

    No, it's just the first cool looking freeware icon I found when I was looking. I assume this weak ad-hom tangent was a subconscious acknowledgement that you can't address my actual point. :cool:

    To an secure men,,,that’s all feminism is about. I would worry more about rape and wage disparities and not some cause that is silly.

    This reminds me of all the people who claim that men are gay because they hate women so much. Someone just wrote that he wouldn’t be surprised if the next five or 10 years gay men are angry at straight men for breathing

    Well let’s compare it to “women’s work “which is daycare, teaching, secretaries,. The professions you showed above are open to everyone.
    By the way the top actresses were being paid a lot less than male actors and that has changed

    Yes, patriotism. Leftists have to look up that word; since they are never taught it in leftist run public schools.

    You gotta buy good foul weather gear before you can work on a garbage truck. Well, you don't have to if you can stand up to a cold rain all day.

    Sure, the garbage box of the truck is automated now, but when the hydraulics go down you're out there in the worst weather doing hard, manual labor.

    It's good pay if you got what it takes, however.

    Because we aren't prevented from being garbage collectors. The fight is about being prevented from doing something for which we are capable, or paid differently for doing identical work, specifically because of our sex.

    I was being sarcastic...a good patriot fights against immoral wars.What did the 60,000+ people die for in Vietnam? Good patriots care about sending people to war when it’s wrong. Aren’t we happy that we sent people to die in Iraq? Look how it made everything better
    So now you think educated people are all leftists. You’re probably right and Trump knows that the uneducated support him and say ridiculous things like the leftists run public schools. What makes a school leftist?I know they shouldn’t be teaching science because that goes against righties

    Leftists don't get to decide what is patriotism for genuine patriots.

    Getting out of Syria is the first step.

    Get the UN the hell out of the US and the US out of the UN and bring all the troops home.

    The serpent, or dragon, 'eating' itself, is a symbol of continuity, and sometimes for immortality. Often found in Celtic symbolism.

    But yet you righties think you’ll have that right to decide. You’re too funny. You remind me of Trump who thinks the neo-Nazis are some good people. That’s patriotism for you

    Except feminism is more of a religious ideology and homosexuality is a state of being.

    People can abandon the ridiculous beliefs happens all the time.

    Conservatives are not the only people willfully ignorant about Science. The Left is as equally ignorant or more ignorant about Science than conservatives.

    For example, many liberals believe GMO’s are harmful to people and the environment. When in reality GMO’s are better for the environment and sometimes they are better for you.

    Many liberals believe sugar is better for you than artificial sweeteners like aspartame.

    Many liberals are suspicious of mainstream medicine, yet enthusiastically embrace alternative medicine in almost the complete absence of any evidence it works in the presence of overwhelming contradictory evidence that it does not work. For example all these treatments are fake:

    Acupuncture

    Homeopathic Remedies

    Magnetic Therapy

    Chiropractory

    And on and on and on….

    What are women prevented from doing?

    Where are women paid differently for doing identical work.

    You started the thread asking why "feminists" aren't complaining about there being enough female garbage collectors and I almost instantly found examples of women asking exactly the question and actively seeking to change it. The point is that you ran your mouth off without having the slightest idea what you were talking about.

    In Norse mythology, Jörmungandr also known as the Midgard (World) Serpent is a sea serpent, The serpent grew so large that he was able to surround the earth and grasp his own tail.[2] As a result, he received the name of the Midgard Serpent or World Serpent

    Yeah and I read your sources and the conclusion they found is women don't want to be garbage collectors because it's quote, "dirty," unquote...

    Men have always done the majority of the grueling, difficult, disgusting, dangerous jobs (90% of workplace deaths are men BTW)

    Feminists aren't working for equality. If they were they would want more women working as garbage collectors not just CEO's of fortune 500 companies.

    And, by the way, I'm the founder and pre-eminent intellectual of the civil rights movement equalitarianism and have written multiple books on the subject.
