but a man's point of view diamond is just a piece of jewerly or crystals or glass when men do not wear jewerly at all okay except gold ring and gold bracelet or if your a **** or gay you might wear them. so diamond uses is for jewerly and nothing else so why would men spend a lot for diamond just to impress his wife or a gift to his lady when diamond has no use at all for guys except some few diamonds were use in industry thats all. so do you think diamond has a higher value cause women likes to wear them or to make them beautiful .so do you think women's extravagant why this piece of crystal has a value in life when to me its just a pieace of glass or sparkling crystal when has no uses at all for men so why would men spend all his money for this piece of crystal just to make a women happy.

If women are equal to men, why do they need:
alimony,
preferential/quota hiring
women's sports (title IX - if they're "equal" can't they compete with the guys?)
Why aren't they required to sign up for the draft?

Seems to me that divorce should result in property being split in proportion to who earned what (not 50-50), there should be NO alimony, and no preferential hiring.

Also, why the big deal over breast cancer - when prostate cancer kills 3x as many people?

Shouldn't courts award custody to men ~50% of the time (instead of giving it to women 90% of the time?)

Why do we hear about "dead beat dads" when women who don't get custody have a higher rate of non-payment?

If a woman slaps a man, should he slap her back?

And for all you folks who think men start domestic abuse, the REAL stats are that almost exactly 50% of the time, the woman hits first. So where are the battered shelters for men?

When will women give up their "protection" and truly be "equal"?

I am a 23 year-old female (although I am told I look about 18 or 19) and I am 5'2" and I weigh 95 lbs. I have weighed that for about 2 yrs. now. I eat like any other person does who is of average weight, but I know I am supposed to be at least 110 lbs. Before I asked on here how to gain weight, since that has not worked, now my question is: is this normal? I have gotten tested for hyperthyroidism and I don't have it. I menstruate regularly so I know I can't be that unhealthy. I really don't understand why for a 23 year-old I weigh just 95 lbs., it really does not make sense b/c in highschool at age 16 I weighed 106! I am back to the same weight that I was at age 14! Does any1 else have this problem? When I go the doctor they don't even mention my weight. Is this normal in anyone else's opinion? Is this just the way I'm "meant to be"? The media bashes Nicole Richie and say she is the same height/weight as me (maybe a couple pounds less) and I don't look THAT thin!

Some men say that women live longer because they enjoy a carefree life more than men.
What is your opinion ?

My personal perspective of God has always been monotheistic and male, so I'm not looking for anyone to defend the traditional Christian/biblical self-disclosure of God in male terminology. I'm interested in composing a list (based on personal testimonies of people who conceive of God as female) of why you hold to this view. Thanks.

Why is it OK for women to notice that other women are attractive, but if a man comments on how attractive another man is, he is considered to be acting gay?

Are there any women out there who actually agree with some of the men on this site who think that the woman's place is in the kitchen? I'm very curious, because some men write questions asking us if we agree with them on that subject. Thank you!

From what I see black women usually like black men more then Asian women like Asian men, white women like white men, and Latin women like Latin men. Does this mean that black men are just holding it down better then others.

Ladies - would it offend you if your husband or boyfriend had to pee, but couldn't find a restroom so he urinated in public while you were with him? Would it bother you more if you had to pee too, but you didn't feel comfortable urinating in public and had to hold it while he relieved himself in front of you? Or would you also urinate in public with him if you had to go too? And would you 'stand guard' so nobody could see your man urinating and so he didn't get a ticket?

Men are obviously physically stronger, and a man's I.Q. is generally 3 points higher than a woman's. Furthermore, I think women have a certain biological role as mothers they need only to fulfill--this is the instance in the animal kingdom and to separate a human from perhaps, an ape, is an arbitrary distinction. I do not think women are honestly good for much else--I am a woman, do not plan to procreate, or submit to any man, though I am aware of my inferiority. Are there any instances where women are superior to men? Certainly now I believe women are inferior just because we are the majority in the United States and still allow ourselves to be marginalized. If we were smarter, or indeed, could compete with men, we'd have all the high-paying and powerful positions, and men would be scrubbing toilet and fixing dinner.
