Act like what? I'm talking about men and the bigger picture now... how there's a huge shift in the roles and dynamics between the sexes and we're really struggling to keep up, always resorting to stereotypes and derogatory terms to help us feel secure in our manliness. We need to grow up fast.... I really think we do.

Most people do though. The media concentrates on minorities, but yes the role of women has changed for the better. But they will always find something to complain about. :tongue:

Utter Fact.

What do you mean - not trusted enough! Why can't they be trusted! If women are not allowed on the front line - that is because of men's continued prejudice - not because they can't be trusted!

lol, I would have thought it was more of a physical thing rather than an issue of trust, haha

Do you think we'd suddenly decide to switch sides at the last minute or something Arista????

Sorry, I had to go out shopping but I wasn't done here.

Women have never been more sensible or mature than men, it just SEEMED that way because we were oppressed for so long -- so saying to a woman that she isn't very "lady like" is quite a redundant thing to say nowadays. You know what, I don't even know what it really means? How is a lady "supposed" to act? Maybe some of you men could enlighten me?

And it's a pretty poor argument to say that women should not "act like drunken slags" because there's a chance they could be raped. Maybe we should all stay at home because we could get run over. Or hell, why don't we all just kill ourselves now because we're going to die anyway? Actually, ever thought that perhaps men should just not rape in the first place?

WOMBAI 09-12-2009 03:30 PM

Can't really see how the physical thing is an issue either. We have women police officers, detectives, fire fighters etc. - and aren't American women allowed to fight on the front line?

Personally, I wouldn't want to do it - probably too much of a coward - but if women want to risk their lives for their country - that is their right! Their life, their decision, their right! They are not children that need protecting!

lol, well physically men are stronger, it's a fact of life, my husband is a fireman and works with 3 women and they always take the less physical jobs

Female - last time I looked!

Men have had it their way for centuries - and many want to keep it that way!

Apparently it is only selfish - when women do it! :joker:

Well, in my eyes anyway. What's just laddish behaviour for the fellas is intolerable and socially unnacceptable for the ladies to engage in.

I mean, if we're going to have a pop at women for feeling justified in acting like men on occassion, why don't we talk about mens behaviour too. What disgusting things can we lay blame to as a sex in the past 10 or 20 centuries when women had been oppressed, denied any legal rights or say in any matters? Eh, war, rape, domestic abuse..... it's neverending really.
