woman vs. man


Question Posted Tuesday February 13 2007, 9:02 pm

Today I was hangin' out at Taco Bell w/ a bunch of my friends, who were all guys. They claimed that men were better than women at pretty much everything. Then when I disagreed, they said to me, "Ok, name one thing that women are better at than men." I was stuck. Then they started laughing 'cause I didn't say anything. They were like, "Yeah, all these great geniuses and inventors, like Einstein and all, all men." It made me so mad, and embarassed. They said they were just messin' with me, but I somehow can't believe that. I feel like they meant what they were saying. Should I confront them again? Or should I just let it slide and hope it doesn't come up again(maybe they were just kidding after all).

Hey. Honestly, if I were you, I would let it slide. If it happens again, though, I would confront them about it. Good luck! ♥ Kathleen.

I'm a guy, and I'm ashamed of the guy community that we say this. Our society hasn't been as accepting to women until recently. Women have only been allowed to vote since like 1920. I think if our society was always equaly, you would have seen a woman president already. But you guys are still fighting to be seen as equals (look at the WNBA). This is my poor attempt to explain why they said that, but here's what you do. Dont bring it up again, but if it does, turn the tables on them. Say "why are all the bad people in the world men?" Like osama bin laden, hussein, benedict arnold, ken lay, there's a million of them. But i bet you can hardly name 2 bad women in the world.

Well on top of all the other suggestions, there is one huge thing that women can do and can't, bring life to the world!

Also you have Mother Nature, Mother Earth, Mother Country. Ships, cars, planes etc are all called she.

Men knock woman drivers but if they want to sell a car it's 'one lady owner'!

Don't bring the subject up again yourself, but if it is mentioned you now have plenty of ammunition.

Men are no better than wimen. We cant argue that men and wimen are different though.
Jan D'Ark, Mother Teresa, Martha Jane "Calamity Jane" Cannary, J.K Rowling, Cleopatra,

Jenna Jammeson, she has sex and makes 7 times the money Steven Spielberg makes and defends the hole porn community in a very smart way on talk shows.
Queen Elizabeth, Maria Qioury who found and studied polonio, Maria Edgeworth famous economist and mother of Francis Edgeworth

Some basic facts of life to use against men:

Women live longer then men by many years (on average)

women mature and develop faster (speech, comprehension, ect.)


I doubt they have the mental capacity (like most teenagers) to do more than stutter a mumbled "uhhh..your mom" after telling them that basically, girls may not gain higher places in the world, but they live longer, so who wins?

And yes, I am betraying my own kind...But I liked this question. :)

Let it slide. I'm sure they were just kidding and it's nothing to sweat about.

You're never going to make it through life if you're sensitive about stuff like that.

I can tell you one thing women are better at off the top of my head: Listening
