do you honestly have Super Glue in your head that you are so stuck on the article (which you took out of context!) about the Canadian issue? What it is talking about is CRIME in Canada...NOT women's rights. It was an unfortunate heading for that article. Violence against male and female are rampant. But...as was pointed out to you earlier, much earlier but you chose to ignore it, is that it happens here as well and proportionally its close to the same.

NOW as far as women's rights to be free of abusing males...yes, the western world has problems with that. Personally I know that the US can only issue restraining orders if a husband abuses his wife...which are basically useless because he will breaks the order and beats the ever living crap out of her or kill her. THEN its an after the fact sad statement that oops...guess it was worse than we thought. BUT, it goes back to the old views that women are PROPERTY of males. At least we DO have laws in effect that are attempting to change things. Do you?

So now you are deciding what's fair and what's not fair? Seems youdo that when you are losing an arguement. I've seen that many times throughout this thread.

Want to know something else about lack of freedoms? I know of several young women here that have finished their university degrees only to be told they can't work, by their fathers. Yep..freedom is alive and well.
