Women: How Would You Prove That You Are Not Indeed The Weaker Sex
« on: February 04, 2006, 01:58 PM »

Females are usually referred to as the weaker sex. So my question is this how well do you agree and as a woman what would you do to prove that you are not or women folks are not the 'weaker sex'

I'm presuming that both of you were made from women, you will know that It's not easy carrying child for 9months and then baring the child(especially the ones with big heads)

I agree with Outkast. Remind folks of childbirth. There is no male rebuttal that can surpass that in demonstrating the power of the woman.

Women Aint The Weaker Sex
« #5 on: February 07, 2006, 11:30 AM »

something 2 think about  Smiley

We start to "bud" in our blouses at 9 or 10 years old only to find
anything that comes in contact with those tender, blooming buds hurts
so bad it brings us to tears. Enter the almighty, uncomfortable training
bra contraption the boys in school will snap until we have calluses on our
backs.

Next, we get our periods in our early to mid-teens (or sooner). Along
with those budding boobs, we now bloat, we cramp, we get the hormone
crankies,have to wear little mattresses between our legs or insert tubular,
packed cotton rods in places we didn't even know we had.

Our next little rite of passage (premarital or not) is having sex for
the first time, which is about as much fun as having a ramrod push your
uterus through your nostrils (IF he did it right and didn't end up with his
little cart before his horse), leaving us to wonder what all the fuss
was about.

Then it's off to Motherhood where we learn to live on dry crackers and
water for a few months so we don't spend the entire day leaning over
Brother John. Of course, amazing creatures that we are (and we are), we
learn to live with the growing little angels inside us steadily kicking
our innards night and day, making us wonder if we're having Rosemary's
Baby. Our once flat bellies now look like we swallowed a watermelon
whole and we pee our pants every time we sneeze. (The latter condition never
goes away, either...lots of times, neither does the former.)

When the big moment arrives, the dam in our blessed Nether Regions will
invariably burst right in the middle of the mall and we'll waddle with
our big cartoon feet, moaning in pain all the way to the ER. Then it's huff
and puff and beg to die while the OB says, "Please stop screaming, Mrs.
Hearmeroar. Calm down and push. Just one or (or 10) good push,"
warranting a strong, well-deserved impulse to punch the bastard (and hubby) square
in the nose for making us cram a wiggling, mushroom-headed 10 lb. bowing
ball through a keyhole.

After that, it's time to raise those angels, only to find that when all
that "cute" wears off, the beautiful little darlings morph into
walking,jabbering, wet, gooey, snot-blowing, life-sucking little poop machines.

The teen years. Need I say more?

The kids are almost grown now and we women hit our voracious sexual
prime in our mid-30's to early 40's while hubby had his somewhere around his
18th birthday (which just happens to be the reason all that early, hot,
man sex got you pregnant in the first place).

Now we hit the grand finale: Menopause. The Grandmother of all
womanhood.
It's either take the HRT and chance cancer in those now seasoned "buds"
or the aforementioned Nether Regions, or sweat like a hog in July, wash
your sheets and pillowcases daily and bite the head off of anything that
moves.

Now, you ask WHY women seem to be more spiteful than men when men get
off so easy INCLUDING the icing on life's cake: Being able to pee in the
woods without soaking their socks...

Now, I love being a woman but "Womanhood" would make the Great Ghandi a
tad crabby.

Women are the weaker sex?

Yeah, right. Bite me.

truthurts, that was a beautiful defence you put there. it sounded almost like Poetry.

the things is, I didnt say women were the weaker sex, I only asked for opinions and defences to prove other wise.

But then, truthurts, it is you women folks that got the trouble upon yourself and all the things you pass through as women folks are punishments for ur mistake, it wasnt meant to be so in the beginning.

One other thing is, women are not called weaker sex because of lack of physical power afterall we have women athletes and G.I's, soldiers and so on, women are so called the weaker sex because of their emotional imbalance. That, I obviously do not need to explain. Do I?

Re: Women: How Would You Prove That You Are Not Indeed The Weaker Sex
« #16 on: February 11, 2006, 01:34 PM »

is this about growing up or about life itself. I may not have an answer to that. But on this whole weaker sex thing, I have an answer you wouldnt even dispute. Ecept if you would argue with the Bible. 1 Peter 3:7

picking out verses in the bible to suit your argument doesn't help much.

you know, maybe outkast is to nice(her weakness)to answer you but I will

Listen, the one's who collected slaves from Africa gave the argument that God had ordained them to teach the blacks who were weaker and less superior less "savaged ways. They picked parts of the scripture and used it to their advantage,
Sect and cult leaders called "The family" use scriptures to marry father and daughter together, rape their own children and beat those who rebel using the scriptures as a refrence.
I may not be an expert when it comes to the bible, what I do know, that using quotes from there is silly of you.

MOTIVE!MOTIVE!!MOTIVE!!! Thats one thing you must seek to understand.

What was the MOTIVE of those who "collected slaves from africa"?

What was the MOTIVE of sect and cult leaders "The Family" you gave an instance of?

What is the MOTIVE of this thread?

What was the MOTIVE when Peter spake in the part I quoted?

What is your own MOTIVE?
Reason along that line and maybe you wouldnt have to describe me as Silly Smiley

To the above questions, I believe, I do not need me to provide answers to them. If you insit that I do so you could reason clearly and comprehensively, then ask.

Truthurts where you at?

Men only have the impression they are stronger .
But not one can go through what a womans goes through.
When ever my dad was sick he will lie in bed and mourn the whole day as if he is dying.
my ex too but a woman will swallow 2 tabs and go on with her work.
Some have their babies and go home the same day. a man cannot even bear a running stomach.
And a lot of powerful men need a strong wife standing beside them to clean up the mess they make.

Women are not weaker than men emotionally and what exactly do you mean that women are emotionally unbalanced?  The majority of women who seem "unbalanced" to you got that way because of something a man did to them.  And if you want to talk about emotional strength, try talking to women who have gone through some of the hell that I have.  What doesn't kill you makes you stronger could be my mantra.  I've been so poor that I couldn't afford groceries, so ill that I almost died, attacked and had to fight my way out, raped, emotionally abused, the list could go on.  After all of that, do you know that my friends and family consider me to be one the strongest people they know?  I'm everyone's ear when they need someone to listen and when someone is having a tough time they come to me with the phrase "I thought you would understand."  Women have to carry more emotional baggage then men ever will and while to you that looks like she's unbalanced, to me that looks like one amazing a powerful woman.

I'm not sure why people are always using the Bible as a point of reference. No offense intended, but not everyone is a Christian or believes in the Bible.

Chei, sorry o, your story is pretty sad. But to be honest, I wouldn't even bother replying to posts like this. Cause unless he's your boss and in charge of your weekly paycheck,  no woman has to prove anything to anyone. This is like saying Black people should prove that they're not an inferior race and all that rubbish,
Take heart, dear.

I expect all hell to be let loose on me by my fellow men. However, I like being realistic despite whose ox is being gored.

Women may be the weaker sex; then and now. We all know that. Wink However, men especially Nigerians have gradually swapped their weakeness our strength.

What do I mean?

Fellow men, try to compete with your boss for that sexy IT student in your company and watch your career shrivel up like a post-climax d**k.

Fellow men (bankers in particular), have you ever jostled for a customer with a female marketer (weaker sex ehh?! Grin?

fellow men, have you ever visited any Vmobile call centre or new generation bank and witnessed the domination in number by the weaker sex.  Smiley


Now that I've said this, I await my expulsion from the men-folk Grin

This "weaker sex argument" is an ageless argument that should be swept under the carpet; mat if you like.
