Gender Studies - February 2007

Men and women, biologically, fill a specific niche that neither could replace the latter in. Moreover, physical, mental and social attributes vary from person to person, and the claims that one sex is overall better than the other, in any field/trait, is tantimount to senseless bigotry?

Why is it that it is more socially acceptable for a man to sleep around than a woman. If a woman has a one night stand then she is nasty if a man does he's macho??? This is to other women do you find yourself verbally attacking other women who are "loose" or least judging them, but find that you are a little more forgiving with men?

I'm looking for details about the femenist movement for a paper, particularly when women started to be more vocal about keeping their last name in marriage or hyphenate it. My paper is about the man who want his wife's name, so i'm trying to draw a comparison.. can anyone help?

I see four main reasons for this. 1) A lot has been achieved. Possibly new goals should be discussed. There's even some reverse oppression, like divorce/custody laws. 2) Too many (usually young) women are behaving badly and claiming this is just one more "freedom" that they share with men. 3) Women are manifesting too much feminism in their relationship/home with their men. Your romantic relationship should not be a place of political action, and if it is, why are you with this guy? 4) In some (rare, but not negligible) cases, feminist rhetoric is a threat to healthy family structure.
If all you're into is gaining power, then don't revamp it. If you're interested in gaining respect, then I think you'll find a revamp to be very helpful.

Do anime characters really arouse people?

I hear a lot of my friends & other men complain that white women (particularly from USA, Canada, UK and the protestant countries) are only good for flings or sex, while the ones who come from Catholic European countries (Italy, Spain etc.) or Eastern cultures (Orientals, South Asians, West Asians etc.) have deeply instilled morals and values that many men really look for in a long-term relationship.

Why is this so? Is it that men cannot tolerate feminism in reality, or is it that men will always prefer an old-fashioned, submissive and emotional type of woman - when compared to a western-style woman who makes her own rules and demands respect from the man?

I am a guy myself, but I am just curious as to why men in general feel this way.

I am not ashamed to buy Playgirl. Many want to buy it but don't because they are afraid someone is looking [a man] and will think she is a slut. Also, Some men-runned stores refuse to sell it but they sell Mens magazines. I guess some men are still selfish. They think sex is only for men to enjoy. Well, we women love it too! We get orgasms too!

This is completely open. I'm just curious to see who here finds the "LUG" group to be disrespectful to the homosexual community and who here finds these young women to be somehow (oh god) empowering. I'll keep my opinions to myself; I'm just curious as to what you think.

Someone on yahoo answers said 50% of american women are single ,if this is the case then the country that i admire the most and respect has let me down.

I'am an indian in india but what keeps me from giving up hope is a leader like USA but if this is what your women are doing then maybe you ought to start a national exchange program with us???

I would love to have american women here ,in fact though not possible i would definitely marry one of your country women.

Does the feminist movement really stand for equality? It seems that if feminists cared for men as much as women, then it would be called humanism, or equalism, or something?

Are there any men's rights/issues that feminists have genuinely campaigned for in the past? I've never seen any myself. However, I, as a male (not a masculist) have argued for female abortion rights, among other things. I've never seen a feminist who cares about men, never. and I've studied politics for two years. Please enlighten me.

As a male and deeply involved with a lady in a relationship, who i plan to marry very soon ,I would like to ask this question.

Please check my past questions and tell me is it a rant ,whine,female bashing? or is this just an effort to find out how best the good guys can say to the modern woman "Hey not all guys are bad and some really love you and would like to grow old with you"

Dont club us with the rest because beleive me when god created women he gave the greatest gift to man.

That is all i have to say i'am a military man(served with special forces in India in for 5 yrs) who fights for democracy,equality and soon to be a husband.

My wife is an executve who earns double what i earn yet she chose to marry me and i still dont understand why because she could have married any guy earning millions.

woman are you like mother earth so vast that it is impossible to undertsnd you????

I sure as hell know it certainly is the happiest moment to love you and claim you .

If woman are so all ears on their feeling wouldn’t it be simple for anyone including her ex to engage in recreation with her emotions and she would with no trouble fall into. I mean use emotions as a detrimental means… why are woman so focused on the emotional side? I see this unquestionably emotional side as a weak spot—more of an exposure. Know what I mean?
