Chsh - an intelligent post.
The next time there is a war, I want all males to be excused.
The women should be drafted and fight all of the wars for
the next thousand years. We have done our share of bleeding,
and deserve to stay home next time.
:cool:
Just to let you guys know, I have to go through this all the time...
To pass the tests to get my application certificate I have to run the mile 1/2 within 11mins while the female counterpart has 13mins...
However, after seeing most of these women do the tests, I realize that most cannot achieve the 11 minute mark....
The reason the testing is "unfair" in some peoples views is that goverment agencies have to balance out their staff...
As we speak, the police forces have a 90% male (white), 5% female (white), and 5% (minority)
(Side Note: That's here in Canada, dunno about the rest of ya...)
Because of the numbers, goverment agencies must make the tests "easier" for the females to achieve so they can get hired and balance out the numbers....
Similar to JP and the antipoint system... the goverment don't want to seem sexist or racist, thus the reason for easy passing...
Also, if I a white male and a white female apply at the same time, have the same scores and so, I'm screwed out of the job because the female is going to get it...
Best chance to get hired, to be a minotiry female.....
That's just the way it is....
(Oh yeah, forgot to mention that women are better in domestic situations, rape issues, sex related offenses with female victims, bathered women, where children are victims, and so...)
I agree with Logoff, he has basically covered it.
But here is another scenario...
In my country, we have a quota with the Education system. The population composition is Race A is 60%, with Race B is 25% and Race C 15%, plus or minus quite a bit. So now, to go to a public University we have we have the same quota reflective of the population composition. And (this must be taken with a pinch of salt) Race B scores like 90 in the exams and Race A scores like 60-70.
Therefore, a guy from Race B has to score 95% in the exams to even STAND a chance to get in the U, while the guy from Race A needs to only score like 60% in the exams. But get this, the coup de grace, Race A's quota is hardly ever filled. Yep, they are not even interested to get in. So much for meritocracy.
And now there are plans to enforce quota for private colleges and Universities. So much for free trade and market determination.
And we also have laws that throw my arse in jail for 3 years without trial or a court hearing for bringing this up. So much for the democratic process.
This is my only post on the subject. Thanks for listening.
sincerely,
cow.
while this is obviously ment jokingly, it reminds me of a point that i have forgotten to make:Quote:

"equal treatment" means the same treatement ACROSS THE BOARD.
now, i have a question: what is an 18 year old girl's biggest thing to worry about?(horibly phrased, i know, but i'm tired) maybe that she shows up to the prom wearing the same dress as sombody else?(ok, maybe its something less trivial than that, but bear with me here)
whats an 18 year old guy's biggest worry? i can tell you...its that he just filled out a draft card that signs his life away at the governments whim. how "equal" is that?
OK I think there is no disagreeing to the fact that women and men have different physical strenghts, but women are stronger in many areas than men.
No doubt about it if a women is raped or beaten she will respond better to a woman police officer.
Women are more compassionate in most instances.
In battle such as war, if a woman is compentant regardless of male and female standards and has the guts to fight, she is entitled to fight for her country.
I am a woman in a man's industry and I fight the discrimination and often suprise of men when they learn that I know as much, often more than they do.
Women are equal to men, just not the same as men and thank God for that!
