Whenever I question this I get told that they are a safer bet as an employee because they aren't going to have children, that's why they get paid more. I tell my employer that I do not plan of having children anytime soon. They tell me that they can't prove that. So I get paid less. JUST FOR HAVING A ****ING UTERUS.
Each day observing the media I could probably point out over 10 instances where women are represented as subordinate to men, and probably about 2 that are vice versa. And please don't use PORN as an argument about female representation?!
Okay so getting higher grades than men and being intimate in a relationship make up FOR BEING SEXUALLY ABUSED AND RAPED?!
As I said, I don't think women are better than men AT ALL, I'm just saying that women still do not have equal rights or opportunities in society. I could go on and on about how wrong I think you are but this is not the place so I am going to stop arguing. I apologise for the rest of MB members for having the urge to reply to GuitarBizzare's comments and for going incredibly off-topic.

*rolls eyes* You've completely missed most of the points you tried to adress and ignored more besides. This 'discussion' is only going to get uglier and I have no intention of repeating my points over and over in the hope you choose to read the parts where I agree with you and make my point that i have no problem with equality but this isn't the way to go about hoping for it.
You need reply no longer. Everything of my intentions is posted above and its your own choice to read it or not.
