Another show of incompetence. No solid argument just trivial banter. It is expected. You are a feminist after all.

Now we are discussing religious extremism and no longer feminism

What has their religion got to do with their progress as a nation? Their rich culture and moral code which you are in no position whatsoever to criticize
No strawman fallacy will fly here. stick to your argument of feminism is the reason for development and show the world how utterly mentally deficient you are.

Strict morals? They have a death penalty for apostasy, have unfair treatments against women in the legal system and treat foreign labor workers like shit. And you just outed yourself as a slowpoke because UAE is CRUMBLING. Apart from the obvious environmental and resource probems, Abu Dhabi their capital city has a debt that is 40 percent of its GDP while Dubai has a debt of 20 percent of its GDP only after Abu Dhabi bailed it out. And the country is only running because 90 percent of it's civilians are FOREIGNERS or hired workers from various countries while it's local population are lazy idiots who survive off family money. 12 percent of it's population is also unemployed and the only reason UAE got successful is because the West invested a lot of money into it as part of some political deal back in the 20th century.

Freecocoa, women are not discriminated against when it comes to military stuffs. for eg, Russian secret service and CIA have female agents who in my opinion are very important. there are certain operations u cannot send a man to do, so even after the physical training some other form of training is required for the women to exceed. buh when it comes to the marines, their operations are more physical and mental and their missions are defined. for eg u cannot send a marine to be a spy, it is d job of the secret service. marines are meant to survive under the most intense physical conditions possible, they train to be in ice cold waters, deserts, practice exchange of gear underwater in unforgiving deep-sea pressures. u do not expect them to lower the standard of their training to accommodate women because it would reduce the survivability of the marines if such a condition arises. if the woman is able to make it thru dt physical barrier then let her be a marine, else let her go. the physical training is extremely important

It is important to note that women who are involved in military and CIA are largely very strong headed masculine types (Hilary Clinton types). These are not the average women and when they average more sensitive/emotional women do end up in male dominated sectors, they do get treated differently and in insensitive ways in relation to their male counterparts.

And prostitution and child murder is a female thing too! of course

Except men literally murder and rape children all over the world around 200 million times more than women.

all deez yeye feminazis
i.e. zeb04 & babygirlfl

afta comin on NL to write
lubbish, yuh will see them all
attending midnight revivals, crying for huzzband

be deceiving thyself lonely haagz

I can tell you're pretty lonely yourself. When was the last time you had a decent relationship or a good time with a woman? I would guess probably never XD

PS- I'm a guy so your hag argument won't work

Most of everything you said was pretty nonsense and this whole post was a loaded and a bait. Men are not superior in cognition and bigger brain size does not relate to cognition either and trust me I know, I am a Cognitive Neuroscience major from UOIT. ( What relates is Body mass to Brain size instead of just Brain size) Both sexes also have disadvantages and advantages which cancels each other out and technically makes them equal. I will give you a list of disadvantages and advantages between gender in the context of cognition :

MAN

Advantages -

Better Visuospatial reasoning which gives Math majors an advantage in solving geometric or calculus problems. ( But not calculation or computation)
Better Spatial ability in general(Except for Spatial memory) which gives male athletes better performance in sports or a dude fixing things/understanding cars.
Better at Sequential reasoning ( Step by step reasoning like solving a Geometric problem or fixing a bike)
50 percent stronger in women in terms of strength.
Better at risk taking
Better at competition
Better ambition and having perseverance traits
Quicker and more effective at long distance navigation
Better physical and motor coordination

All of these advantages are a result of Androgens (which includes testosterone) which enhances spatial ability , masculine traits, physical ability and supports lean muscle mass.

Disadvantages -

Insensitivity - Caused by testosterone reducing fear and activity in the emotional circuits of the brain
Lose empathy abilities during times of stress
Poor memory during stress - Hippocampus gets damaged/dampened whereas Estrogen protects the hippocampus during female stress
Lower empathy - Testosterone reducing empathy by inhibiting the transmission of oxytocin. Also because men have smaller anterior cingulate gyrus and less active insula
Lower emotional intelligence- Again caused by Androgens such as testosterone, smaller Cingulate Gyrus , less active Insula and mirror neurons ( bad at relationships and understanding other's feelings and emotions)
Lower social intelligence - Again caused by Androgens which blocks Oxytocin
More prone to aggression and lower impulse control - Caused by Testosterone receptors in the male bigger sized amygdala and also caused by smaller Pre-frontal cortex. (Pre-frontal cortex is responsible for impulse control, planning and reasoning)
Weaker regulation of emotion, mood, decision making and responsibility - caused by smaller Orbifrontal cortex

Female disadvantages -

50 percent weaker then men
Less ambition towards systematic careers which deals with objects such as Engineering, Physics, Math or Computer Programming
More sensitive physically and emotionally - Women have more pain receptors all over their body, a more active limbic system and a more active bigger anterior cingulate gyrus which is sensitive to emotions and pain.

Weaker in spatial ability - Because of less testosterone
Have mood swings - Hormonal fluctuations because of the menstrual cycle which is constantly increasing and decreasing brain chemicals.
More emotional and can hold grudges - Have a stronger emotional memory and more active limbic system
Greater emotional re-activity- Can get angry quickly due to more active limbic system

FEMALE

Advantages -

Superior in memory over men - Due to larger Hippocampus
- Remembering facts for example from books or educational material
- Recalling past memories or facts
Vocabulary or a list of words
- Better Verbal Memory
-Better Recognition ability
- Better recognizing faces, identities and people
- Better at object location and recognizing places, buildings and areas.
Better at Spatial memory ( the only spatial ability they are better in) - Due to larger Hippocampus

Better Writing ability and speed - larger prefrontal cortex and Broca's area in the brain

Better Reading processing and speed - larger prefrontal cortex and Broca's area in the brain

Better Verbal ability in general - Enchanced effects of Estrogen and large Prefrontal cortex and Broca's area
- like Reading comprehension
- Communication
- Phonological processing
- Verbal reasoning - Due to Prefrontal cortex being bigger
- Better at understanding metaphors and poetry

Superior at learning ability - Due to more Cortical connectivity in the brain and bigger Hippocampus and Caudate nuclei size
( Greater verbal ability and learning ability is why women have easier time learning multiple languages and accents)

Better Hand eye coordination - Due to stronger muscles in the eye, palm and fingers

Superior Perceptual speed
- Ability to shift attention quickly
- Pick up and perceive details

Greater Attention Span - More dopamine transmission

Superior at Multi tasking - Like engaging in multiple things at once

Better at computation, Arithmetic, calculating and estimation in Math ( but worse at mathematical problem solving)

Better at Synthesizing reasoning
- Taking individual details and combining them as a whole ( a bit like Inductive reasoning)

Superior in Insight
- Better Intuition or connecting thoughts, past experiences or ideas unconsciously
- Better at Globalized reasoning which allows them to see the whole picture in perspective.

Better at Multi dimensional thinking/reasoning
- Having wide variety of interests
- Integrating different topics and reasoning them together
- Thinking two different topics and ideas together
- Ability to switch from one topic to a completely different one

Healthier metabolism - due Estrogen

Better endurance ability - due to Estrogen

Deals with stress better - due to Estrogen

Less prone to aggression/violence/risky criminal behaviors

Healthier Skeletal muscle - due to Estrogen

Better Social Intelligence - More Oxytocin reception and bigger Frontal Lobe

Superior Emotional intelligence, regulation of emotion and Empathy - Bigger Frontal Lobe, bigger Anterior Cingulate Gryrus, more active Insula, less testosterone, more oxytocin reception, more active Limbic system
- Better emotional intelligence drives women to care and be more considerate, sympathetic and involved in social/moral issues which is why
60 percent of donations to charity are by women while women are more involved in social protests then men. This was an evolution adaptation for women to have greater care for their babies and children.

Better responsibility , planning and decision making - These are advantages for obvious evolutionary reason such as taking care of babies and collecting food/resources to support her offspring. These advantages are due to bigger frontal lobe such as greater size in Pre-frontal Cortex ( This is probably the biggest reason), Orbifrontal Cortex, Anterior Cingulate Cortex

Greater brain activity then men - Which is why women are always thinking because they have more cerebral bloodflow and oxygen transmission in the brain which drives them to worry more but plan, think and be more concerned about her priorities.


So I gave you a list of advantages and disadvantages in both genders which obviously indicates neither is smarter or superior. Man have an advantage in Visuospatial reasoning while Women have an advantage in Emotional intelligence and Verbal reasoning. But there is no doubt women have a higher functional level then men as more women graduate high school and university over men, beat men in grades and exams all the way from Kindergarten and even within University. This is probably due to some of the advantages I have listed. And men still contribute a lot to society especially because of the Male Bell Curve where evolution produces a of talented male geniuses ( like 1 percent of the population) but also produces a looot of dumb males, criminals, drug addicts, dictators, mentally ill, homeless and high school drop outs. We still get the benefit from the 1 percent of male geniuses who run the Science industry and improve our society. So all in all, both genders contribute great to society and are equal.


PS- It is stupid insult to women to state men have better cognition then them. The average woman has a bigger Prefrontal Cortex then a man which makes her literally better at general reasoning ( not spatial reasoning or dealing with mechanics) , responsibility, commitment, planning and decision making over men. Men make up for their disadvantage with better Spatial reasoning which is essentially critical in the important STEM fields like Math and Physicals. So yeah, women have a lot of superior skills over men because Prefrontal Cortex is what makes is human and logical while it is also larger r in women but since men also have one ability which is so critical to society (Spatial ability), it balances out both genders being equal. We need both genders to effectively run society.
