Sexual equality is ridiculous, Paychecks. Options

[Simba]

So there's been an issue with men being paid more than women when it comes to jobs.

Say a girl and a boy around the same age worked at the same store (and were paid equally). Now say they went on a date. Chances are, the girl wouldn't spend a dime and the boy would be spending all of his hard-earned money. The girl would only end up spending her paycheck on herself. The point? Men have more needs for money than women do. Men fundamentally have a need to spend more money than women do.

Generally, men are paid more than women for the same jobs because, well, men have more demands for money than women do. Men want paying jobs. Women want glamorous jobs. Women never seem to demand that half of sewage workers or half of window cleaners are female.


And I'm just going to put it out there now, I don't follow any of the above, but I'm willing to debate with you anyway.

With the date thing, you have a point.
But hey, that's not always the case. If they weren't dating, the women would still argue the fact that they're not making as much $ and may not be living their lives as decent, especially if they're single moms or something along those lines.

men have more demands for money than women do

Could you be specific?

Traditionally, men are the ones out working for the money while women are at home caring for the house and children.

women take their kids everywhere. therefore, needing money for fuel.
women buy groceries. therefore, needing money for food.
women buy their clothes, their husband's clothes, and their kids clothes, therefore needing money for clothing.
women get to go home to a messy house and have a ton of chores to do like unloading the dishwasher, washing/drying clothes, folding clothes, paperwork, vacuming, cleaning in general, therefore needing more time.
women have way more needs for money than men. men usually just go out and spend their money on boats, trucks, ect. that they don't need. not to mention, they want the woman to look pretty all the time, which is just too hard for her with trying to make him happy and do all the things listed above with the short ammount of time given in a day and not getting paid what she's worth. it's ridiculous.

... and women spend a lot of money on cosmetic, fashions, and etc.

And that's where the money goes.

What about single mothers? Are they just sol, since they're female?

Winner.

Ok, you guys got that one. There's not too much else for me to say without sounding like a male supremest extremist.

New Question: Male =/= Female
So why are people trying to make them equal?

how are they not equal?
i actually think women are more deserving than men are.
most men do work hard jobs, but that's because their bodies are made to.
most women work hard jobs as well, it's just doesn't deal with as much physical work as the jobs men have.
men complain about their jobs, nontheles. even if they did have an easy job, they'd complain. what makes men so much more valuble than women. nothing at all. they're both valuble to society. without women, there'd be no new people in the world, therefore the population would die out. the same applies for men. without men, there'd be no way to reproduce fertile offspring.that means that even though they were designed to complete different tasks, they were both created equaly and should be treated as such. they're both a big part of reproduction and the world in general.

Be careful, that's not what your Bible says.

Be careful, that's not what your Bible says.

this debate isn't about religion so back off. you don't even know much about "my Bible".
and since you want to sound so educated, please show me the verses that say otherwise.
