War between the sexes!!!!

Men are made by nature unequal. It is vain, therefore, to treat them as if they were equal.
- J. A. Froude

There is more difference within the sexes than between them.

Most of the male dominant positions are now being filled by women we are seeing female surgeon, architects, construction workers etc. Yet many act surprise as if this is a new occurrence yet in early history women have been acting just like their male counterparts the feminist agenda is not a new idea it existed in early history. Yet I cannot help but wonder if the female identity is being lost as she competes in a male world.


Question is female gender lost?
Do we understand truly each other?

Other than the obvious what are the differences between the sexes?

There's still a big difference, you can name 6 females that have done leading roles in society over the past 6000 (or so) years. That number is absolutely minuscule. I love the fact that men and women are getting closer to being equal in this world, and I hope it continues on that path.

1. well UK for sure, Queen Elisabeth has a big roll in politics.

2. Germany today. A Merkel that I actually admire.

3. Finland in the past. Tarja Halonen

4. Denmark, Queen Margareta, since a loooong time.

5. Sweden today (the democrats) Mona Sahlin, that works hard for the poorest in Sweden and everyones well fare.
that was easy, because those are very close to me (Sweden), then we have

6. My idol, Queen Rania of Jordan, doing a great, GREAT job by using youtube.

7. Iraq Benzair Bhutto, Pakistan, who will ever forget her?? These self bombers!!!! Grr...

8. 1960 Sirivamo Bandaranaike of Sri Lanka became the world's first female elected as Prime Minister.

9. Monaco LOL, In 2009 Monaco became the last country in the world to have it's first female member of government.
1999 Sweden became the first country to have more female ministers than male. 11 women and 9 men and in 2007 the Finish government had 60% women.

1. The rest of us us Chris, hehehe, be aware, we are rolling up our sleeves!!

LOL, one leads off blowing the gender equality war trumpet, the other throws cold water on the parade, the next throws her gloves down. I laugh my ass silly, we are all fools not to see each other for the parts of a whole that we are. I believe in equality, but not in a way that everyone gets the same, no that's communism; but that everyone gets what they need, and respectfully; not always what they want, for some always want too much.

I like the Olympics as the best example to gender equality that we have today. In the Olympics each gender competes against their own, in the same events, sometimes as a 'family unit' team (ex. pairs skating. The idea is not to see if men are better than women or vice versa, but to see who of the men exemplifies excellence, and who of all women exemplifies excellent, in any given event. Let the best of both shine, be loved and respected, and lead through peaceful example, human greatness. So why do men and women fight each other?

Gender politics has existed for the longest time, it is often used and financial supported by elites, to weaken the bonds of the family unit, reduce the population of the serfs, and prevent middle class population from developing strong, successful family groups. Rockafeller is one such meddler.

Equal rights are a must! Equal opportunities (whether they are followed up on or not) are a must, equal access to: health care, legal representation, education, financial assistance, safety and security, respect and fair treatment, political representation, and social value. Men and women should be equally valued because of their unique differences, strengths, and dependencies, not in spite of them.

What people need is better national and world leadership; to provide both women and men: better education, better financial opportunities, better health and security etc. This would equip men and women with the tools and abilities to make more productive partnerships, or friendships in the future. What we don't need is bullshit TV, twisted statistical claims, or 'reality' shows teaching people that 'doing it wrong' is somehow 'OK'.

So I'd ask people to put their gloves back on, so to speak. We need each other to solve our mutual problems with international banking cartels and criminal elements in our respective governments. We do a better job when we work together. At the end of the day, what matters is the job was done well; not who did more, or who should get more pay, but that everyone got what they needed.

P.S. Margaret Thatcher is cool, but I'll love mom the most!
