So women want equality eh?

Went to get my driving license done today..

Standing in a long queue.. Suddenly a woman waltzes past and goes to the front, completes her procedure and walks out. the same thing happend a half dozen times..Before you start blaming the locals, there were two local ladies and four expats..

Now, I thought the ladies wanted equality... Shouldn't that apply to standing in line also ?

Just like opening a door for a woman you should let her go to the front of the line, But you have to understand that this woman must be worth opening the door for, and there isn't alot of them here in Doha now is there.

What I do when this happens,(and it has) I'll grab the stuff (men or womans!!!) and push it to the side, and tell them to wait their turn. So far now one has called my bluff......

Well, our "illusions" were far better than women.

At least I'm not imagining what shoes'll suit me. XD

Very good posting, but humour aside, I have read a lot latel from ladies on QL regarding equality , freedometc.. If they want it then they should not act the "weaker sex" when it suits tem.

Personally, I don't believe that there will ever be eqality per se, but there needs to be respect and mutual understanding..

You know sometimes when women have screaming kids or is heavily pregnant, standing in a long line isnt beneficial for anyone...

Being a woman has its downers.. but imagine being a man and having to be attracted to us when we drive them so mental.

It isn't rocket science. You men just need to know your place that's all... and then everything will be Just Fine.

You all know it makes sense.

Mars and Venus? Naaa, just a case of needing a little respect for the fairer (and undoubtedly) superior sex..

Comme ca.. easy peasy. We rest our case;)

Rules for Guys?

by women

1. When crying occurs you caused it and should fix it. Perfect time for a gift.

2. Watching Star Trek or any type of non-romance movie/ T.V. show should also be rewarded in a gift.

3. The toilet seat prefers to be down. Gravity; any questions?

4. We are not always thinking of you.

5. Wearing the same clothes because they are on top of the pile is not acceptable.

6. When we ask for something we want it then!! Don't wait for a birthday, etc. you may for get what it is that we want.

7. Three pairs of shoes in not a selection, its a crisis!

8. Yes and No are not answers, you are not on trial and we are not your attorney.

9. You too can order Pizza.

10. Chinese Food is a meal.

Why don't you know all of these rules?

if women would get equality then they would lose their superior position. I don't think they really would want this.

By byberg• 19 Jun 2008 20:01

There are women in this world who wants to be women and there are men who wants to be men.

Equality is not between gender it is between humans.

I most often see in the western discussions, it is a matter of doing boys of our girls......the more traditional values refered to women is not good enough for the society.....the valuation is higher on the traditional male subjects and I think that is wrong...

OPS now I got to serious maybee.....dont be too hard now....its never black or white.....it is grey...most often!

Totally awesome!!! In India in most railway stations there is a q for women which is maybe 1/4th the length of the men's q. When we were in college we used to buy the tickets for the boys- see how nice we are...

You cant be equal with us!

You are the daughter of Superman's uncle, Zor-El, and Zor-El's wife, Allura.

Just before Argo City joined the rest of the planet in oblivion, Zor-El, in a reprise of Superman's own origin, placed Kara in a rocket and sent her to Earth, to be cared for by Cousin Superman.

very wise and so true.. i would question the playmate / subordinate bit.. It works quite well in my SM games.:)

Marx summed it up well.. "Differences of age and sex have no longer any distinctive social validity. All are instruments of labor."

In fact and in truth, the word equality and or inequality between Adam and Eva doesn’t exist.

Let’s see:

1) We know that all human being are essentially equal

2) Woman is a human being

3) Man is a human being

I know… the law of human reproduction could have been naught without the woman.

This is to say that in human existence, woman’s role is not secondary but primary.

From my knowledge of the creation of our first parents, Adam was found incapable of living alone.

Then, an Eva was created out of his rib to be his play mate and life companion.

How can a play mate become a subordinate to man?

The first law of matrimony was instituted for two equal beings with specific roles, of complementary nature.

The wise creator of Adam could have not created an inferior person from a superior man and said that Eva is a play mate to man.

This argument can never be true for The Creator can never lie and can not bring a counterfeit material from a genuine material. :)

Conclusion:

Adam and Eva are to complement and supplement each other and be a whole for none of them can live in harmony without the other.
