Gender

[Nice]

in regards to dogfood's post
no
men and women are not equally discriminated and you're kidding yourself if you think that equal treatment of women has been reached over the last few years. women are statistically paid significantly less than men (see http://www.catalyst.org/knowledge/womens...and-income) and are often times have a harder time getting employed for the simple fact that they're female. they're still fighting for the right to be able to have control of their own bodies (see the fact that we're still having debates over whether or not abortions should be legal in fucking 2013). they still get shamed for the way they dress and how sexual active they are (see any dumbass highschooler complaining about "omg all the slutz" at their school), and yet pretty much any fashion magazine will tell you that to be considered beautiful and have self worth you have to present yourself in an over sexualized manor. even in the cases you were presenting when guys were given the shit end of the stick it was because people thought that the girl was too weak or incapable of handling rejection, which is kind of one of the key elements of why feminism even exists in the first place.
almost all of this isn't a conscious effort or some sort of ~male agenda~ or anything stupid like that it's just so indoctrinated into our society and is considered so socially accepted that most people don't question it, which is exactly why feminism still exists. it's to bring attention to said injustices and tries to educate people on them so they don't inadvertently take part in them.
this isn't even coming from a hardcore feminist or anything either lol, i disagree with a large amount of what they believe in but this sorta stuff is just common sense

in regards to kman's reply.

no.

First of all, the link you gave me says "page not found", second, I dont know how it's like in the USA but in my country it doesn't matter how old you are, how bad you smell or which sex you are. EVERYONE gets payed the same, depeding on their work position.

I have never witnessed a female IRL complaining or getting trouble for applying to a job because she was a female. Infact, if you read my post the only thing i witnessed was how a male got removed from his work so the female could take over. Simply because of the gender factor. YES because of that, that guy happens to be my friend and he asked his boss about why he got fired. The boss said "Sorry, but female waitresses are better".

If a guy dresses up funny, he's gonna be just as shamed as if a woman would be. If not more. And just like magazines with women imply that women should look the sexiest, should wear the most suggestive clothing and wear excessive make up to look better. There's also the rule for males...According to media, society or whatever, real men shouldnt cry, real men should be buff as hell and have 6 packs, real men should be gentlemen and real men should know everything technical stuff...Otherwise they aren't "men"
