Gender Studies - October 2006

Hi.
What are some examples and case studies on female discrimination, in different countries of the world and in different situations? Eg, economic aspect, political aspect, socio-cultural aspect.

Thanks.

I am doing a paper on women's issues, and I am curious to see if people have thought about this problem on a global scale. Thanks for your help. :)

She said that family is all about sacrifice and I agree with that. But she wants me to give up all my friends and things that I enjoy. She seems to think that anything that I like to do is taking away from our marriage. I think this is the most important thing in my life, but I feel like it might not be normal. What do you think?

You live in an underpopulated land where house prices are affordable to the working classes, you pay a fraction of what we in the UK pay for fuel, your only immigration problem is thousands of miles away from most of you, and you treat us as an enemy even though we throw bodies into your ill thought out wars.

Fair enough that we are dumb to listern to our leaders, but we voted them in and you lead them.

We did not vote you in.

My question is :

When you roll over, will you at least be polite and thankful for our help, or do you intend acting the way you do untill none of you are left?

Has anyone noticed this? They are as tight as a clam with money. Actually most times their clam isn't so tight anyway. Has anyone considered this? I ponder these things.

My boyfriend is taking heavy medication before he goes to sleep. He must take that medication for at least a week. Those pills make him soooo sleepy that he can not wake up until morning, not even if I shake him hard. Yesterday, he was sleeping, but he went to sleep before we made love. I was not getting any sleep, and then I noticed he was having a huge erection. I was so horny and he is so hot, cute, and treats me so good, that I could not contain myself and I made love to him. I am his girlfriend, so I see nothing wrong with that. Should I tell him what I did?

I am a business major. I am pretty good in presenting and carrying out a team project in a group where members are sharing ideas and doing things as a group. Now the thing is my group is dominated by 3 gals i am the only guy in it. So they pretty much do what they want to do w/o listening to me and even carrying what i have to say about the assignment. In other words they blow me off. I never had a problem like this when I was in a group of two girl two guys, nor three guys 1 girl. And i tried talking to them they simply blow me off. My professor doesn't care he is like you have to manage to work together, (note I am getting points cut off, when my team members are basically showing that they are doing all the work) I want to fix this, if possible. other wise i am just going to trash them in team evaluation.
I never had these problems with my teams members before in my other courses.
What to do? Tell me ladies.

When men turn 18 years of age they have to sign up for selective servce (at least in America). I personally think that the need for selective service is b.s...military and the possible chance of dying should be completely voluntary...but let's just assume that the selective service will never be elimnated...why would men be the only ones allowed to be forced to sacrifice thier lives....if women are now in the military in a combat position....then it follows that they can be trained (gender norming is a completley other question) so why won't the government allow women to die for thier country on the same platform as a man...is all this equality still only smoke and mirrors....freedom and eqaulity is not limited...you can't pick and chose...women and men should both be able to make the same chioces.....i understand that some women are not military material but then again so are some men...so what's the deal? are people just allowing women to be int he aremed forces for show or what?

I was taking a class on human sexuality a few semesters ago and one of the topics that we covered was rape and sexual violence. During the discussion several of the females in my class said that they feel uncomfortable doing things that I take for granted (like walking alone at night through a city).

I was sort of shocked as being a victim of rape was never something that entered my mind. So...I figured I would ask for a broader range of opinions than the 5 or so females in this class. Has the threat of sexual violence changed your behavior or altered your life in someway? Is this a constant fear?

women bang on about how much better they are at everything than men, some sexist men would say that women are only good for two things, working in the kitchen and working in the bedroom, you'll be glad to know ladies that i dont think that's true (My wifes a c r a p cook) so are womens feet that small so they can fit under the sink? or do they really have a purpose? i mean we let one have a go at running the country once and look what happened, what do you think?
