Are there really women who view themselves as superior to men?

Question

How odd...there must be. I have always assumed that women in general viewed themselves as inferior. Please explain how a woman might arrive at a position of feeling superior to men. Which criteria are focused upon in order to conclude superiority? What makes a woman better than a man?

Answer 1

I am superior! Women are smarter, especially when its book learning. Women are better spellers, better at talking/speaking, better readers, show our feelings better, stronger, better care givers and we stick in there when things get tough, men just bail! We can do more things and better than men like at writing, typing and its us women that keep the human race going, I know it takes men to keep the human race going too, but, they only take 3 minutes or so out of their lives and women take that and plus 9 months and then some. Plus, women endure and take more pain than men.

Answer 2

I don't know if there are women who view themselves as superior to men.
But i know that there are lots of women who view themselves as great, useful, and important as men are.
I my self believe that men and women are so great, that we shouldn't even be asking who is better. Both genders have great things just because of the fact that we are human beings.
And i believe that there are lots of diferences that make us a complement .
Besides, i am convinced that there are some special habilities in wich men are better than women and viceversa, eventougth it is a generalization wich i don't believe in.
So, i believe men are better driving a car, but there are some women who are great drivers as well. Women are better taking care of little children, but there are great parents, anyway.

Answer 3

Believing one is somehow superiority is really just a cover up for deep seated insecurity and an inferiority complex.

If anyone truly feels superior to anyone, then they must have narcissistic tendances, despite their gender or it is to do with their upbringing and life experiences, which lead them to the conclusion that they are somehow above others.

Answer 4

Women and Men have different assets. For example, while men and women have roughly the same IQ, men's scores are spread out over the spectrum. So while more men are morons than women, more men are geniuses than women, too.

In the work environment, women typically are better at handling large amounts of detail. Meanwhile, men typically are better at mapping out strategy. Now, mind you, this isn't 100% the case. I've seen guys who were detail guys, and women who are incredible strategic brains. But in general, that's how their minds work.

Now some women seem to subscribe to that mystic sisterhood nonsense, the self-congratulatory ethos that they are the creators of life, forgetting of course that sperm is required for the process to work.

Again, men and women are a partnership. And, quite frankly, any woman who disdains men are really living impoverished lives, such the same as any man who degrades women.

Answer 5

Nothing, my brother is a Researcher at the NIH, so I was exposed to DNA and such at a very young age, thus so far, I know that the only difference between men and women is a chromosome, XX is a lady, and XY is a man, apparently this chromosome affects the formation of the Embryo even from the Zygote, meaning even though men are better at alot of things, and women are better at alot of things, no one gender is superior. The only differences in our anatomy is the Reproductive System, Hormonal Systems, and The Brain, which has yet to be looked in to.

Answer 6

Of course there are. Most women who would call themselves feminists today would claim that they are at least somewhat superior to men. They'll admit they don't have as much upper body strength, but that's about all they'll admit. Their mantra is "I can do anything a man can do, and better." The main problem with that is not the falseness of it, but what it leads to, which is lower standards of accountability in dealing with good men.

Answer 7

I can do anything a man can do, yes even pee standing up if need to,
I can give birth, that makes me feel superior, but then I have to come down off my pedestal because without him I can not conceive.

So i see thing as equal .

But I can give birth so I'll keep my pedestal just in case I need to feel superior to a man that thinks i;m not.

Answer 8

i'm sure there are, though not nearly as many as there are men who view themselves superior to women.

personally, i believe that generally there are things that women are a lot better at than men, and there are things that men are a lot better at than women, but it varies depending on the individual.
the only thing that [most] men can do and women can't : impregnate a woman.
the only thing that [most] women can do and men can't : get pregnant, carry a child, and breast feed

Answer 9

Wellt those who think they are superior do so because they can get pregnant and do all the work in raising children.

Answer 10

I'm superior to all men, we are superior because we can pop out babies and then a week later be back on our feet.
