I asked that because this issue still has continued to be problems. Some male athletes dont like to have to get naked and change in front of women that they dont want to. Also male reporters are not being granted the right to go in women athletes locker rooms. So if title IV and equality is now a big issue in fairness of equality should females not be allowed in male athletes locker rooms or should males be allowed in females locker rooms if females are given that right to interview male athletes?

Do women have their rights because they were "given" to them by the once "male-controlled" society of the early 20th century, or have women "seized" their rights?

Both offer up interesting questions in their own right;

- If women were "given" rights, does that mean that society can just as easily take them away? Not unlike society takes away the freedom of criminals? (not that women are criminals, is a vague analogy.)

- If women "seized" their rights, how exactly did a voiceless portion of the population exercise enough power to "take" something for nothing? Was something lost in this seizure?

If you believe that a fetus isn't a person until it's born, then do you disagree with the murder of a pregnant woman being considered a double murder?

I see your question was removed for obvious reasons. If you're not a coward, I'm still waiting for you to back up your assertion. How do you figure that Baba Yaga is a liar? I'd like to see some sources, too, if you don't mind. She always seems to have them.

If women are paid less than men for the same job, is it because they are not demanding more pay?

In a capitalistic society, whose fault is that?

Capitalism is about free market, open competition.

A woman has equal opportunity to negotiate (demand) her salary as a man. Is it not HER responsiblity to negotiate with the employer.

I have two billable consultants (one woman, one man) who make more money than me. They 'command' it. Neither would accept a penny less, much to may chagrin.

As an employer, I pay according to a "range. The employee negotiates their best salary. As a small business owner, I only pay what I MUST pay (capitalism).

If two equally qualified people are paid differently, it is because one "accepted" (not was assigned) less than the other.

It is NOT personal. It IS business.

It is NOT discrimination based on sex, gender, age, or whatever.

It is simply the way capitalism works.

male-chauvinism, please list of the more subtle and covert indications of the affliction.

I'm requesting this list because there are many men and women who are still in the dark about its debilitating effects on society and the family unit. Thankyou.

Many women complain that tv degrades them by having them pose as prostitutes, wear tight and short clothign, and sometimes be in their draws or nude. However I would have to say that men are degraded on tv as much as women. For one on many soap operas you see men slapping women but never the other way around. Secondly, men are protrayed to be a dunce or a nerd on tv shows in which someone is playing that role. Third, men are protrayed as rapists, murders, and child molesters but women are not protrayed in those roles as much.

There are less women in high political positions and economic positions as men and they tend to be underpaid but aren't men equally discriminated on a whole. For one only men are required to sign up for selective service. Secondly, women tend to receive lighter sentences and less likely to be sentenced to the death penalty for the same crime under the same circumstances. And then it is known that child custody and divorce judges tend to favor women over men. So even though women may be discriminated in the workforce arent men equally discriminated equally as a whole by society?

I am in a role reversal marriage. My husband stays home full-time and I work as an attorney.

I recently decided to host a dinner party - and I did all of the cooking. I never cook, but decided to venture.

I wore a nice cocktail dress to the party, but also opted to wear a hostess apron to protect my dress. It was very pretty (green and red floral). At the party the wife of one of my associates goes, "So you're wearing an apron. Looks like you are giving up on being super career woman".

What should I make of that comment? Yes it was stupid, but is it true. Is wearing an apron a sign of regression after all I worked for to become a sole breadwinner and independent woman?
