| > are incomparably worse than what men face. Hummm well i guess i am taking the bait. > How about the fact that in some countries women can't even show their hair, have the right to drive or vote? I don't want to diminish the experience of people in other countries. But comparing acros so many different variable muddy the water. If you gonna bring up women in muslim/arab countries (many of which support the hijab btw), then i will raise you the men currently dying in ukraine and what ever war you want to talk about. Let's focus on the average experience in the US... where we have both enough information and cultural understanding to make good commentary. > - How about the fact that women are several times more likely to be sexually assaulted? Something, something prison...
And what about the other kind of assaults... like say murder ? > How about the fact that women have to worry about potential unwanted pregnancy? Touche on this one. Also i would say that women have more control on when/if they want to be parent as opposed to men. And the 18 year child support can be brutal. (Did you know that child support can't be discharged in bankruptcy court ?) > How about the fact that abortion laws are being repealed across the United States? Agree that a travesty. > How about the glass ceiling and the fact that women are paid less for the same jobs across many industries? Yeah this one is a rabit hole. But comparing modern data, and normalizing this is much less pronouced.
How about the missing men in univestity etc... etc... > That's not to say that men don't have their own challenges as well, but it's borderline delusional if you think that men and women face the same level of challenges. This must be an american thing, the weird need to diminish or reduce the experience of a certain group. Life sucks, and sucks for a lot of people accros so many different variable. I understand the concept that some issue might be more pressing , but to call someone delusional simply for asking the question is not helful at all... |
