superior sex., is it man or woman? Options

[sikdragon]

Actually, I remember watching something that said women are better at speaking and comprimising than men are...perhaps they should be running the country more...

Compromise is loss.

Females are. they take more pain than men do.

I bet, none of you girls have ever felt a swift kick to the balls.

Most of the time, it's because MEN used to be the superior ones, until a few decades ago. No one traditionally votes for them much...
Look at Hil Clinton.

Just because someone has a penis, it doesn't make them a man.

Now that the truthful jest is out of the way...

Men are superior where it can be counted. All measures of superiority were made so that the strongest, smartest, fastest, and overall manly man could win. Women can't compete in the competitions that define greatness. Because, they were made to measure the man.

In reality if you compare them both it's like apples to oranges. Men(speaking of real men.) are logically superior. Women are emotionally superior.

The chauvinists of this forum will boldly state their claim that men are more superior. The feminists are going to claim that women are the dominant gender. The smart ones, will logically observe both sides and avoid it altogether (knowing that more girls than guys post in CB). But look at this way, a single gender cannot reproduce.

[o0olaalaa]

i chose equal but...studies show that girls are smarter than boys =)

[sadolakced acid]

biologically, males.

they're built for physical activity and sex.

females are built for having a baby.

I think Brandon put it quite well. I stayed out of this debate mainly because I have no opinion--or rather, my opinion is that neither sex is perfect or better. I also don't see the reason for debating the superior sex--if we're going to get anywhere on any sociological issues, be it dealing with sex, race, sexuality, and so forth, there's a point where you have to admit that both sexes are outfitted for certain tasks, to the detriment of others, and that true equality means accepting that fact and accepting each other.

True feminism, incidentally, does not place females superior to males; the feminist movement originally espoused gender equality, not the promotion of women above men.

wow, men were built for sex?
i think women are FAR more superior to men when it comes to sex

i dont think either is more smart than the other . . . but i do believe that men have more motivation and inititiative to be greater than average in whatever they do (which is a very good thing)

hard to say, really im undecided

Ah, a product of biology, or society?

Correctamundo.

Frankly, I find it stupid that people really have to argue about this. It doesn't matter what sex you are. You are what you are, now go make something of yourself.

But women really need to get away from the damn malls. And stop being ditzes. But we ALL know that that won't be happening anytime soon.

society, for sure!

i have a theory to why men can shop much easier than women.

men used to be the hunters.

when hunting there is not always a garuntee that if you pass up this animal a better one will come along. it's impossible to know. and, killing an animal was a bloody affair and would attack scavengers, which could inflict harm to prehistoric humans.

therefore, men are more likely to go in with a clear idea of whta they want to get, and if they find something that will suffice, they go with it.

however, women were the gatherers. they went out with the goal of getting as much of the best as they could. if you passed up some berrys, you could come back to it. there was not real need to choose only one, nor any urgency to choose at all.

therefore, men shop for something sufficient. women shop for everything great.

So we're learning about féminisme in my French culture class and I thought it would be appropriate to post an interesting find here.

Simone de Beauvoir wrote a book, entitled "Le Deuxième Sexe"—translated as the second sex, which entertained the existentialist idea that "one is not born, but rather becomes a woman". In other words, society created the culture of 'woman'.

Here is an English translated version of the book if anyone would like to have a better look: http://www.marxists.org/reference/subject/...s/fr/2ndsex.htm

woman and men are equal..plain and simple. without women, there wouldn't be men. there wouldn't be life period. i don't think this question is even that complicated or debateable. we need eachother to live and reproduce, therefore men amd women are undoubtfully equal in my eyes. i think it's ignorant for people to say that men are superior and that women are weak and helpless and can't do anything except cook, clean, and take care of children. it's the 21st century people.

[technicolour]

^ That's cause we're not weak and helpless, well, some are but that's a diff story

and that men are superior? I think that's more their ego talking

[sadolakced acid]

more men are mentally retarded than women.

but then again, more men are certified geniuses than women.

society? or biology?

[AngryBaby]

this topic is funny lol. of course, sadly, its a man's world. if it wasnt, would we ever have a period of time where woman couldnt vote? or woman were property. or the little house on the prairie logic that woman should stay home and tend to the house. plus i mean look at other countries.
and this goes down to the primitive caveman ways, no matter how much smarter a woman is than a man, the man could always just say "well, i could still kick your ass"

btw im not stating who's actually more superior as a sex. i think we are equal mentally in that regard. the only thing that we are naturally different in is physical strength. guys are naturally stronger than girls, and thats where the "dominance" rooted from.

I honestly have to agree with that statement, in a way. For instance, appearance does not affect a man when getting a job, on the other hand, tests have been done that show that women are more likely to get a job if they are attractive, or a man is more likely to get a job over a woman, even when the credentials disproove the choice. It's not right, women and men are equal, but that's how it works. People still deny it, kinda like how racism is barely here. <That's a lie, people just aren't open about it. Now if we were talking about insects....the woman almost always owns.

[pandamonium]

I believe man and woman is equal but under the truth of it all, man is more superior cause look wo+man=woman and in the bible it said that Eve was made from Adams rib or something like that. Then everybody followed that and they made man seem more superior in ancient times and we just have grown accustomed to it, and followed through.

[Paradox of Life]

Man is superior. The fact that women and girls have to try and prove themselves to be better than men says it all ("Girl Power!" "We can do it!"). Stop trying to deny it. It's true. Just today, the coach referred to easy pushups on your knees were called girl pushups and the real pushups were boy pushups. They told us we probably couldn't do boy pushups, but if we thought we could, we were welcome to try. It's just how it is. Men is the dominant gender. Name 1 extremely important female person. One that has the impact of-

Albert Einstien
Sir Isaac Newton
Martin Luther King
George Washington (and all the presidents for that matter)
Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, Bach

I don't think any female icon can stand up to that.

[sikdragon]

Margaret Thatcher was a great leader, I would have voted for her.

marie curie
madame tassiant
harriet tubman
mother teresa
margaret thatcher
a lot of women were skilled in music. why don't you hear about them? they married men who were skilled in music.

if you see something written by "bach", it might have been YS, or CPE, or YS's wife.

same with a lot of composers.

Is that because women are incapable of such greatness, or because, historically, they didn't have the same opportunity to be great as men did?

Margaret Thatcher had a penis












(joking)

I would have voted for her as well.

Of couse they had the same opportunity. Every woman could've taken up a sword or a .45 and killed those that held them back.
