Men are weak. Some men don't know how to cook, they don't know how to do family chores, they suck at sewing, yadi yada. They definitely don't have it all, far from that. But I still don't think it's 50 - 50. At least, so far, I haven't seen why it should be balanced.

Cooking, doing house chores, sewing are abilities you acquire. Nor be say because u be woman, then you automatically know how to do these things.

Give me examples of natural areas where men are weak, because there are a lot. I'll say this. men are psychologically weak. They are physically strong but aren't so good at enduring!

2. So are you saying that the ability to become a doctor, engineer is innate in men, but not in women? So I guess you guys don't even read your books, after all, you already have the natural endowment to become one!

@ lonelypal

women don't want to be like men, we just want to be able to excel in whichever area we please. If men want to be hairdressers or cooks does that mean they want to be women?

lets be frank, i know most ladies and i am sure most of you here, have given excuses that a guy was just too weak, that why you wouldnt date him, some of you go as far as wanting to see some macho physical traits too confirm he is a man.

sion, just consider that pic of your future, where men cook, and women sit watching tv, and the women are ruling in almost all facet of life, they pick a man and propose,pay the dowry and even F%*k him, abeg, is that the kind of future you really all want.

Like I said earlier, I prefer a MAN. But it still doesn't mean I'm inferior to men. I'm not saying we're equal either. We've got our differences.

Actually, I'm in the middle.

Cooking doesn't make him weak. It simply means he is bold enough to challenge this society that has defined roles for us based on our sexes. Men who can cook are sexy!  Cool

Can't dispute it that's the way society was, but times always have and always will change so now that women can freely choose to enter any professional  field and do well in it, it shows there has always been equal capability but not equal opportunity due to socital restrictions in the past.  Like michelin said, the knowledge is acquired not inherent in men only.

Sexes are not equal.
Men are more intelligent than women.

If we focus on factors such as the ability to quickly grasp a complex concept, verbal reasoning skills and creativity - some of they key ingredients of intelligence, then we would all agree women can never be compared to men.

This is more facts than the myths y'all women have been posting in the last 4 hours.
Men have denser brains. . . . .more white matter than the grey matter and have been proven to be more intelligent than women.

Please show us a female Albert Einstein anywhere in the world.
Men have bigger brains and higher IQs than women, which may explain why chess grandmasters and geniuses are more likely to be male.
Larger brains mean more neurons and these neurons are responsible for processing information.

It's like comparing a 1GB processor in ur Sony Laptop to the 500MB version. . . . .The difference is CLEAR. Grin Cheesy

Gender equality means men and women having the same rights and obligations, and everyone having the same opportunities in society. Gender equality is also about justice and about sharing responsibilities, both in the family and society. If gender prevents us from seeing the individual’s strengths and weaknesses, this can lead to discrimination and limited opportunities for the individual.

The Norwegian Gender Equality Act was passed in 1978. It is intended to ensure that men and women are treated equally. The act is important for both sexes, though it is the position of women that is in particular focus.

Women fought for equality for many years before the Norwegian Gender Equality Act was passed. Women won inheritance rights equal to men’s in 1854, and unmarried women won the right to be considered independent adults in 1864. Married women did not win this right until 1888. This meant they now had control over what was done with their own assets.

The Norwegian Association for Women's Rights was founded in 1884. Its members were both women and men.

Towards the end of the 1800s, women won new opportunities in education and their choice of professions. Women won the right to work as teachers in 1870. Society was changing quickly at this time and there was a big demand for new labour. Many women started to work in telegraph services or telephone switchboards. Both of these were workplaces based on new technology. Many of the new women’s professions required training. The new opportunities were primarily of importance to middle class women.

Working class women had long worked in factories. Around 1/3 of all women of working age were in paid work by the end of the 1800s. Most of them were young and unmarried.
