So political jobs are what constitute what makes an equal society? Why not education jobs where women hold over 80% of those jobs? Politician serve "The people" - and this includes men and women alike. They are voted into office by men and women alike - not just men. So political jobs are not a good indicator as to what constitutes "equality" between the sexes. Men in politics created the Violence Against Women's Act. Doesn't benefit you as a man but you sure pay for it through your taxes. If your wife beats you then you're not going to get any help with the Violence Against Women's Act. No shelters for you either as a man. But there are thousands of them for women. Yet new studies suggest that domestic violence is about 50/50. Some suggests that women might actually abuse men more often. But men do more damage to women when they hit.
But notice how female politicians talk about "Women only" agendas. This is not equality. It would be like voting in a black politician that's made comments like he's going to do more for blacks than whites. Think that's fair? No way.
I've never heard a male politician in modern times talk about "men only" agendas or to help out men in larger society who are not equal with women in certain areas of life.
Women have always been 2nd class citizens? If being pandered to and coddled is your definition of 2nd class then you're thinking is very askew. One sex is being forced to protect and serve the other. Men are being forced to protect and serve women. That's obviously what you believe is equality with your - he chose to be her personal lapdog when he married her in the other thread about never marrying an American woman.
Who's done the bulk of the fighting and dying in combat? Men - and why is that? Because men are the only sex that's been deemed by other men as "expendable" by government and are therefore draftable into the wars the government chooses to get involved in. And let's not forget that if a male doesn't sign his draft card within 30 days of his 18th birthday he can not hold a government job or get loans to college whereas women can without having to sign their lives away to the government that benefits them the most.
So Hilary Clinton who never signed a draft card, never served her country in the military, should be in a position over the lives of men in the country who've been mandated to do more for their country than she ever did? The woman rode her husband's coattails into power.
Lastly, the women of today are not the women of the past. They have every opportunity men have today and very little of the responsibility that goes with any of it. When the bills don't get paid who does society come after? The man of the house. When the grass isn't mowed outside and people drive by, who do they think is the lazy one in the house? The man. But you may have worked it out with your wife that you do the dishes and vacuuming while it's her responsibility to mow the lawn.
How about instead of just giving women power through laws that discriminate against men and give women special incentives to succeed, they actually earn it on their own through their own merit? That's all I ask of them. Don't bring special attention to yourselves as women and whine that women long ago were 2nd class citizens those evil menfolk from the past chose to fight and die for in combat. LOL! What a joke. And what's good about earning your place on your own merit is you can claim you did it all on your own and didn't have any special governmental incentives that cheated in your sex's or race's favor.
