Dont forget that time the Italian army marched for 3 days to battle and then when they finally met the enemy they retreated the same distance in 3 hours.

CONT
You're right, you didn't say anything about the government stepping in. Its just that whenever I hear those claims its always followed by an enthusiastic "And the government should DO something about that!" It was my own personal bias reading into your comment and I apologize. If you don't suggest government intervention as the solution, what do you think would be a good way to solve those problems?

It takes A LOT of time.
Men do tend to go for higher stress jobs for example: soldier, cop, miner, firefighter, oil rig worker, and I believe surgeon. These are all fields dominated by men (I've never actually seen a female firefighter, is that a strength thing?). I'd also like to point to the fact that men live shorter lives than women.
At this point I'd like to make sure everyone understands I believe in gender equality. I think women are perfectly capable of doing whatever job a man can, its just, statistically, they tend to stray away from certain jobs. Wouldn't want you all to get the wrong impression.
I'm sorry about this but I forgot to mention in my previous comment that women who don't/haven't started their families yet make just as much as men. Women who are not their child's primary care giver (ex- husband takes this role) also make just as much as men. Women are not punished with lower pay because of the choices of other women.

@ricepudding I'm not suggesting that women be punished for having families. Its not a punishment its a consequence of choice. If a women chooses to have a family (and is the primary care giver of her children) then she simply has less time to invest in her career and will therefore make less.
@vlekkie Well I hope you at least learn something.
@whocares Teaching is not a high stress job. Its a great deal where you get to degrade the mental integrity of children as you wait for your pension to start and laze around during an entire quarter of the year you get off.
She does have to focus more on the baby. Unless there is someone else whose going to be the primary care giver, to not focus on her baby is extremely abusive. Jesus. Do you realize that neglect actually causes more physical damage in the brain than sexual? If you choose to have a child you need to take care of that child or be with someone who will. Its a hell of a lot more than just feeding, clothing and changing a baby.

Your assertion that women are constantly harassed is not true and that women are forced to have sex with their bosses is ridiculous (as if its some sort of common thing, come on now really?). Furthermore neither of these things are discrimination. They're rude and evil, respectively, but not discrimination. Sure these things happen but they don't justify any special government intervention or special victim status for women in general. You know what you do when you're forced to have sex? Report it to the police. You know what you do when you're being harassed at work? Report it to HR or leave, like any self respecting human being would do. I had a job where I got (not sexually) harassed a lot. You know what I did? Got a new job.

Okay I've just got to pop in here for a second. The idea that women are paid less than men for the same work is a myth. In overall statistics yes men do earn more, but its not because of some "privilege." Its because men tend to focus more on their careers and women tend to focus more on having a balanced lifestyle. Its because men are more likely to go for those high pay, high stress, life consuming jobs, and women just go for those jobs less often. Its because when a woman has a child she has to focus on the baby more than her career. She has to give birth, breast feed, and take care of the baby. When men get children they can still stay late at work and spend most of their energy on work, but when women get children they can't stay late at work and they need to spend a lot of their energy on taking care of their kids (this, of course, isn't a necessity. Its just that women tend to be the primary care givers of families).

fluffybunny1982 that's called a eugenics program. I don't know what country you're from but quite a few countries tried this is large and small doses before WW2. America was one of these countries to try it out and it ended up being a terrible thing, which from my point of view seems the obvious result. I agree with you that there are tons and tons of people who are absolutely not qualified to have children, but that doesn't mean you're allowed to sterilize other people, that's just horrible. We all know that what you subsidize increases and what you tax decreases. Single and married people are being taxed to subsidize single mothers who've made bad choices. This is a terrible way to run a society. Children really need to have two parents, be they gay or hetero. Its simply to hard to raise a child yourself, especially if you're working.

Personally I think abortion is awful, a tragedy in every case. I don't know if its immoral. Its hard to say for such a complicated issue. Even though I don't like it I still think it should be legal. If you're thinking of something illegal you need to remember that to use a law is to use force. We're all comfortable using force to drag a murderer to jail, and to escalate that force if they resist, all the way to even shooting them if they resist enough. I for one am not comfortable dragging a woman to jail for having an abortion. I'm not comfortable escalating the use of force against a woman for getting an abortion. While I don't like abortion I think that a law is the worse evil. What I think we should do is encourage women to go through adoption if there aren't complications, and to shame the trollops who use abortion as a form of birth control.

Its impressive, but I'm still disappointed. I witnessed no destruction. This should be titled 'lion pride try to eat hippo and it shrugs it off and walks away.' Don't get our hopes up like that and then dash them. It makes whats still awesome not seem so awesome.
