"Women have had the right to vote since the 1920's, and they outnumber men, so it's their own fault...

Question

that they don't run the country!"

This was a quote from a history professor. Discuss...

That's true, Mickey G! You've got half the money and all the p*ssy!

Antonio - this professor's teaching style was to make an outrageous statement or pose an outrageous question every day in order to stimulate thinking and discussion, as opposed to lecturing facts and dates to a room full of zombies. He probably didn't even really believe his own statement. He just wanted to be controversial for shock value.

Answer 1

Bet the professor was a man....it still isn't fair, ever tried being a single woman and getting your car fixed, your house painted, your furnace cleaned?....(not intended in the naughty sense at all) lol.
Countless times I have tried to resolve issues with credit card comp. oh the list is endless, the irs...etc.....I get no results, but the second my signifigant other (man) gets on the phone he gets a successful resolve, whats up with that?..
In truth, and I know this will upset a ton of women, but, the reality is we used to run the country. We used to stay at home and raise our kids, now we opt for having day care do it, we lost our own power, we blew it!!!! Raising children, teaching them morals and how to live is the most power you can have, in effect, that is running the country......good question.

Answer 2

i do no longer think of semiserene is familiar with lots with regard to the flow.. Many feminists do be attentive to that male rape sufferers outnumber female sufferers. they additionally be attentive to that men outnumber women while it includes being sufferers of any violent crime. however the approach they have (i've got seen this many situations) is "nicely, it is men doing the crimes." So, the justifications at the back of their inhumane perspectives is that it is fairly basically substantial while it occurs to women by men. in any different case, men basically are not that substantial. that's a critically skewed and harsh approach. It reflects completely on feminism as an entire. -upload- look on the solutions so far and you will see precisely what I mean. No difficulty that men are sufferers, basically that they are greater in all probability to be perpetrators. I trust Jess approximately reformatory reform.

Answer 3

Why does this stupid professor assume that women are necessarily less fractured in their opinions than men? Also, many women are still under the influence of patriarchal thinking, filled with insecurity, and don't believe that a woman is capable of running the country--and people like this professor obviously would like to keep them that way.. We need to have both men and women evolve away from sexist views. The two biological sexes have a destiny together. The professor is polarizing things. And these people of such limited thinking, who are supposed to have open, critical minds, are teaching us and our children?

Answer 4

Yes I agree too. But the reason is either faulty believes (even by women) that women are no good at politics as men. The other reason is that many women just don`t care to be in charge. They care more about other things: beauty, fashion, house, kids etc

Answer 5

assuming that all women would vote for a woman. ever see how catty women are they can't stand anyone who looks or dresses better than they do and will do everything in their power to destroy that person.

Answer 6

edit: because they don't run capitol hill, a majority of ppl there are men.
