Have you ever been treated unfairly or felt helpless in society because youre a WOMAN??

Question

Or do you think that because we legally have equal rights, we do socially as well? Please explain. Thanks!

Answer 1

I won't respond as harsh as the guy above, but hey, I'm a white, middle class male, and I've felt the same way. I'm sure someone will argue that we've had it great for centuries, but that answer doesn't address my fears, either. I wasn't alive when my great grandfather and grandfather had it so "great" growing up. I do believe in equality, but I almost think it's become "uncool" to be white anymore. That's not the product of an equal society, either. As if anything we say or do is much more highly scrutinized than anybody else's opinion. It's like people are just looking to find ways to criticize us. That can be an unfair and helpless feeling in my book, too.

Answer 2

there is a natural inequality among the sexes and that is the male and female sexual function. male body is larger and stronger. woman smaller and weaker. man function aggressive. woman function receptive and passive. this is a natural inequality that is not a bad thing. there are women who treat men like crap. sure i have had a couple men treat me unfairly. but i know of women who treat men unfairly as well. i will tell you how i do feel like i have been treated unfairly. i feel that it is not fair that some women who arent good mothers and caretakers and who cant find a good husband change the rules and try to make every woman to work. that is not fair.

Answer 3

When a woman been treated unfairly that only because other party is weak.
The society will be helpless without a women.

Answer 4

Before women in Filipino culture were treated as weak gender until after I attended this universal seminar on Gender Sensitivity Training I realized that men and women are equal thus women should be treated equally with men. This prompted me to assert all my rights just as men asserts their rights. So you have to speak and act at par with them so that they may know that men and women are just on equal foot, no below and no one above just standing side by side..

Answer 5

Oh get over it!
single white males are more predjudiced in our generation then ever before. in fact in several states being white has become a "minority" issue.
then there is the IRISH, who are historicall oppressed more than any other white caucasion male.
but after ALL the oppression, both of male and female there are the JEWS who are oppressed MORE than any other.

the unfair treatment of women may or may not be justified, but iwas a WOMAN who FIRST disobeyed God and it was Man and the priesthood of God that saves mankind from the fall Women.

Answer 6

Yes, I can remember when I applied for a job and they asked me what kind of care I had for my children and how I planned to take care of them when they were sick, I pointed out that my children were in their teens, but the male interviewer still wanted to know my arrangements, by now I knew I wasn't going to get the job, so I asked him what arrangements he made for his kids when they were sick, quite huffy he replied "My wife takes care of them"
I asked him if she worked too and he said, "Yes, but I'm the one with the real job". Double whammy for me, I was, at least in his eyes not only a bad mommy, but one that needed a job too.
Yes. I know such questions are supposed to be illegal, but it happens, and you know you can write off any idea of a job if you say so. So, hands tied...unfairly and helplessly....just because I'm a woman. At least in that company.

Eve was tempted by the devil himself, disguised as a snake, surely a formidable foe. Adam ate of the apple, at Eves urging, probably just so he could watch the game in peace. Who's weak there?

Answer 7

Hell yes. Make no mistake. It may seem women have equality but in fact they do not. What they do have is more responsibility and a heavier burden.
All those of you who know the meaning of the words: left holding the baby will know what I'm talking about.

Maybe except when I am alone in a semi deserted place or something.
