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.

I don't think they are inferior, but I think they are different...I also think that some of these extreme feminists need to realize that men are women are different and to try and deny that is stupid!!

No-women are beautiful butterflies with wonderful hearts, brains and souls. We are just different, have different interests and lead different lives. Women are very perceptive and often tend to have more wisdom (or different) than men.
Sure men have built bridges, created air conditioning, tvs and computers. But we couldn't (or wouldn't) have done it without YOU! Many of our best ideas, inventions and advice came/come from women. Besides women have done so much but not given credit for it.
I do not believe men are superior or women inferior; we compliment each other. Feel free to think anyway you want. But how do you explain all the women judges, doctors, lawyers, engineers, etc? If they were as you described
how could they accomplish so much?
Women are the jewels of humanity. To change that and force us to fight a woman vs man (not you, extreme feminists and some males) atmosphere, is to copy "The Art of War" written 2,000 years ago. Peace.

NO! women are not inferior to men. and for one thing, womens IQ scores are, on average, higher than mens.
Men are NOT 'obviously' stronger than women. perhaps on average men are physically stronger than an average woman, but a woman can be stronger than a man.
in the animal kingdom, a lot of the time the male dies after having sex with the female. that is all he is good for. and what is the mans role if that of the womans is to be a mother?
yes women give birth. but what do men do?
as for your statement of "I believe women are inferior just because we are the majority in the United States and still allow ourselves to be marginalized", perhaps it is because women like YOU dont stand up to men because you believe you are inferior, and so the cycle continues.
women have made great progress in coming up from submission, so it's not as if we are still sibjugated and in a lowly position.
women are in high paying jobs. there doesn't have to be 'one is smarter than the other'. it doens't ahve to be that one gender has to be highly paid and the other scrubbing toilets. BOTH men and women can do both jobs. and it isn't a matter of us being smarter to get said jobs. it is about the current system of power that doesn't allow as many women to get those jobs.

I dont think women are inferior to men in any way. Men and women have their own individual strengths, a woman may not be able to bench 300 pounds - but on the flip side I dont see men having kids. Just be lucky that you dont live in Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan. Muslims treat women like garbage and in some countries if a woman is raped, she needs to produce 4 witnesses to prove she was raped. Nice huh !

That's just silly. Men and women are different, but neither is better...and we need both to survive.
You have to understand soem of the things that tend to be "men's jobs" are things men are naturally predesposed to do. Men have lots of testosterone which makes them want to hunt, fight, engage in war, and control people.
Women are hardwired to generally be more nurturing. We focus on emotions, what things mean, nurturing, gathering, and raising kids.
You imply that housework is a terrible job, and I think you're forgetting something: many women love being housewives and mothers. We care for the home & the family. Without us, the boys won't make it to manhood. Beign a woman is a beautiful thing!

Men are stronger, thats true, but smarter? No way! All a woman has to do is show a pretty smile, or move their cute behinds in the right way, and a guy gets weak. Not that I'm complaining, I don't think there's anything that can compare to a woman. God Bless 'em all.

All the bull crap aside the Bible says that when a man and a woman r joined they become one, separately they r missing their better half. We r all the same not a one is more inferior to the other in all aspects. Some just do better than others.

I think that any people who think women were made just for cooking and cleaning should just go **** themselves.. Pardon my language.
Anywho, about the "animal kingdom" thing, the FEMALES actually do the HUNTING. So, where are ya going with that?
I'd also like to say that males have SUCH a low tolerance to pain that it isn't even funny. They whine and complain at any little thing. What I would like to see is a guy give birth to a child. I would just LOVE to see a guy handle that kind of pain.
I could, and should, go on and on about this, but I'll stop with that.

no, just different and our differences whether man or woman is what make us special and those same differences complement each other. the fact that some women feel they are inferior by the mere fact they clean toilets or fix dinner or raise the children are only seeing one aspect of being a human being. there are plenty of men who do these things too. if you feel marginalized or inferior to anyone then its your own fault not anyone else's, you are as inferior or neglected as you allow yourself to be...the problem is not society, men or women's views its your view.

I believe the Bible says the man is the head of the household so we are under the man but we definitely are superior in ways too. For instance, I am much better with the finances.
