I’m always skeptical of people in the sociopolitical world who use equality as their watchword. Even those who have been genuinely oppressed at some point in time. The reason is once they do reach some type of equality they are not satisfied and they’ve gained enough momentum to try and get an advantage against their now so called equals. Give them an inch and they take a mile, etc.

Women want only the benefits of equality and none of the responsibilities that come with it. Women want to be treated as equals only when it benefits them and then when things get too hard they want to be treated as special.

You don’t even need to be rigorous about it or wait for it to get violent – which it always will, because women will be the first to hit during any kind of dispute. It’s not even a percentage. It’a fact like the sun will rise tomorrow. Even on a most basic level, you won’t need to treat women “badly” or as badly as they treat men, you just need to treat them with NO free unearned advantages, and she will cry “misogyny” and a “war on women”.

Put it in terms of integers:

• Women generally start their lives and operate with a POSITIVE “cash-flow” point balance at all times….. seemingly waltzing through life with +20 points without ever losing any.

• A man begins his life with -10 points and spends an enormous amount of energy and effort getting to 0 and he must work to maintain that level. This is considered a modicum of “success” – just to stay at ZERO – because a man without even the most basic job is considered a “loser”.

She is used to advantages and unearned adoration, worship, and privileges which (in her mind) are OWED to her. They are not even considered “advantages”. They are expected minimums. To treat her “equally” would be to place her at LEAST at 0 and expect her to earn every +1. This is why unemployed women with no savings or high-paying career (who have the intelligence of a chimpanzee) can still be considered an acceptable member of society.

A man can not.
He is a “loser” unless he earns his way out of worthlessness.

This concept is totally foreign to women. They are OBLIVIOUS to it. They refuse to acknowledge it. As a man, you’re a loser, a scumbeg, a douche, a rapist, a cheater, a criminal, a pervert (etc.) and all kinds of NEGATIVES even when you are just a basic working citizen with not a blemish on your record. You are expected to constantly prove yourself, just to stay out of a negative balance. You can even be an established professional, a professor, a doctor and be removed from sitting next to children on an airplane simply because you are LESS THAN ZERO in the eyes of society. You’re a “pedophile” before you are a professor. You are a “potential rapist” before you are just a working man out enjoying a drink.

Men spend a great deal of their lives carrying a negative point balance.
If women wanted “equality” they would have to accept this. And they never will.

This is how you know the feminist claim for “equality” is a bulls~~~ LIE – through and through.
TRUE EQUALITY would be to treat women like worthless SCUM before treating them like basic citizens.
Women would never stand for that. They don’t even see the value in it.

Women aren’t even willing to put the minimal effort in to earn a single point like the “respect” they demand.
Just starting her at 0 would be considered “treating her badly”.

No. Women don’t want “equality”. Not even close.
They don’t even know the meaning of the word.

To apply this to the Ray Rice incident as an example…. you don’t need to hit a women back when she initiated violence. Even when you totally IGNORE her as a response, she will behave like you are treating her badly. Don’t extend women any privileges, attention or worship and she will behave like she is being treated “badly”. She will throw a screaming FIT. It’s an absolutely certainty,”equality” is the LAST thing women want.

This thread “Do women want Equality”? This is a very generic labeled thread.

Equality in what? Home, Work, or being a man?

The law is clear on violence, no matter who hits who first. So in this
light, is it wrong for a woman to hit a man? Or is this a thread that
If a woman behaves as a man, should she be treated as a man to man instead
of a woman to man?

As far as home, there are a small percentage of women who want to be a “stay-at-home”
mom who doesn’t have to worry if the bills are paid and if they aren’t going to have
a home to live in the next day. Some small percentage of women want the man to be
leader in the home, but to a man who holds himself accountable. The majority of women,
have their own homes, their own careers, without a man present. This is based on solid
research. (See Bureau of Labor Statistics) Do Women want Equality?

As far as work, we men have allowed an unequal balance because we cannot seem separate our
pleasure from business. Business is logical not emotional. Business is created to make
money, nothing more, nothing less. However, the advantage is in the protections given for women
and the advantage in laws, regulations, and advantages for small business creation. Ever tried to
find a grant for a small business loan and are a male? Ever try to get out of work because of
having a baby, or excused for irrational behavior because you have a menstrual cycle? Of course
not because we are men. Do Women want Equality?

In relationships? Ahh, this should be the defining thread. In a relationship, Do Women want Equality?

Thoughts?

If women want equality if a woman hits a man it should be treated no different then if a man hit another man. A man had the right to defend himself from a crazy woman. If you attack anyone then you are fair game to be attacked back. A man should have to let his crazy girlfriend beat him just because a woman shouldn’t be hit.
