RE: Gender "Equality" Will Never Happen (And it Shouldn't)

in #philosophy7 years ago

There are a number of points that I would like to question if not counter, but alas I am working so only can do a short bit. I will write and post back to you later for sure. You make a well prepared and presented argument for a broad topic that would really require hours of discussion. You have talked about clothing, hitting, equality and touched lightly on the topics... just enough for me to want to go, "Hey now, wait a minute!" It is smart too, because you pull up these emotional topics, skim them and then go back to the party line of equality. This kind of thought process always strikes me as a form of passive aggressive support. It is the kind of support that says I am here for you until I am not. You say that you aren't okay with women walking around bare-breasted because we are hard wired differently. Do you think that women don't oggle and objectify? Some of the most lucrative marketing campaigns featured athletic men getting hot and sweaty... and you know why? Ladies? Yep, all the ladies. Also did you know that when researching the way that a male brain and a women's reacts to sexualized images, both brains light up. It is only when you divide the called genetic stagnation. When we keep trying to do the same thing and not change then how will we learn different. I can understand not wanting nudity all around but I think you are dead wrong with saying it is okay to show men's nipples and not womens.

Kind of reminds me of this comic:

I think that perhaps if people started to ask why is this a problem rather than just assuming it is not a problem then they might be able to see the other side of things a bit better. I wish I had more time... but I will surely be posting on the topic on here or @PrudishNudist. Thanks for sharing, I look forward to more discussions :)

I'd like to counter this as well, but first I'd like to ask you to go more into detail on this particular excerpt, as I'd hate to misinterpret exactly what you're saying.

" It is smart too, because you pull up these emotional topics, skim them and then go back to the party line of equality. This kind of thought process always strikes me as a form of passive aggressive support. It is the kind of support that says I am here for you until I am not."

Because if you mean what I think you do then I think you're inferring something which I did not mean to imply. I would describe myself as a great deal of things, but passive aggressive isn't one of them.
