I mean people you don't know and who just joined that day or the day before adding you to their contacts?

This has happened to me 4 times this week. I blocked them just in case. With 2 of them there were a string of new contacts including women here in GWS.

I thought you may want to know.

In every abortion debate I all ways hear what "If she ways raped or incest why deny them abortion? I would hate to tell a 12 year old raped victim she has to have a kid."

almost all pro-choice will say that but have any of them even talk to a raped victim that has gotten pregnant? Some of them even thinks it will help the victim,but in reality it doesn't. about 75-85% of victims are against abortion.

The reason most people reach the wrong conclusion about abortion in cases of rape and incest is that the actual experiences of sexual assault victims who became pregnant are routinely left out of the debate. Most people, including sexual assault victims who have never been pregnant, are therefore forming opinions based on prejudices and fears which are disconnected from reality.

Did you think the portrayal of the larger women in "Hairspray" was offensive, flattering, or funny?

If you are not a larger woman but would like to answer please state that you are not a larger woman. Thank you. :-)

This comes from another question which claimed that women earn less than men because they work less. All the reasons why were associated with having children, which any full time parent will tell you IS work, and hard work at that, just not paid, and judging by the misogynist attitude to divorced women getting alimony, not at all valued either.
When a woman works less in paid work because she is doing most of the childcare why is it not reasonable to redress that in some way?
If a man took on most of the childcare and the woman carried on working (still a rare arrangement) would both men and women think that this was 'taking "equality" too far'? Or should men be given incentives to do this? If a man were given incentives would that be discrimination?

I believe for the most part men and women are equal. Genetics make us physically superior to one another in different ways...men are stronger women are more flexible. But just in Yahoo! Answers I see so many proclaimed feminists saying that women are superior and they are more successful in life, more intelligent and have greater potential then men etc... Im not here to argue for or against that Im just saying that a feminist who says that is just as bad a a chauvinistic man who says men are the superior gender. Agree? Disagree? Thoughts...

Why are women so envious? What makes us get envious?

Or could it be that men work harder, smarter, and longer than women, and are thus worth more?

If women were truly paid less for the same work, the corporation that hired men would soon be out of business.

I mean a father plays catch with his son but how often does he play catch with his daughter? Do girls these days suck at sports because society puts to much pressure on them to be feminine or is it something else?

Just so you know I mean girls not women who play sports professionally.

UK Ministers are considering outlawing paying for sex, to try to counter international human trafficking. They're looking at what Sweden did in 1999: Sweden made it illegal to buy sex, but decriminalised the sale of sex. Why? The idea was that prostitution should be regarded as an aspect of male violence against women and children and therefore tackled. Swedish men are arrested if they are caught buying sex, but prostitutes are not arrested for selling sex.

The US has outlawed prostitution in most states. Some US states and countries have legalized prostitution. Sweden has a mixture of the two. What do you think should be done about prostitution?

"It no longer matters who is right. It only matters who is suffering. And how that suffering may be ended"

Agree or Disagree?

Especially in relation to mens/womens rights.
