Lol, feminism is a scam? Now I've heard everything...[emoji849]. You are starting to sound like one of our resident paranoid theists, Pool...not good.

[LadyForCamus]

I keep defending you pool, and but you are starting make it very difficult. How is the fact that more men than women die in war a scam of any kind? Men and women are equally free to join the military! If there are statistically more men than women in the service (I don't know if there are; I'm saying "if") then there is your explanation. No conspiracy necessary. Same goes for workplace injuries. If more men than women do physically laborious/dangerous jobs like construction work for example, then of course they will have a bigger slice of the work death pie. I mean, is this not common sense?

[LadyForCamus]

As someone who admits he has an affection for traditional gender roles, wouldn't you prefer that the women stay home and have babies while the men go off to war?

[LadyForCamus]

You don't get to argue in favor of traditional gender roles in society and then cry reverse discrimination when the numbers reflect the very roles you are arguing for. "Men should be the providers and do all the hard labor, but...but it's feminism's fault they are more likely to die doing dangerous jobs and fighting for their country!"

Logical coherence is not one of Poolie's strong points LOL

LFC,
Could you please answer my questions? (since you self identify as a feminist. If you aren't -feel free to ignore this)

1. What do you mean by 'Women's rights'? Give example.
2. What rights are women denied?

Pool, I can't answer you in full right now (chasing baby around) but I would like to make it perfectly clear that I do NOT self identify as a feminist. I'm not sure where you got that from.

Take your time.
(I thought I read a post of you somewhere about identifying as a feminist somewhere, thanks for clearing that up,I'm glad you aren't one.)

Okay, let's see:

1. I don't think I ever used the phrase "women's rights" here (I don't think?) so I'm not sure what you mean. If you are asking me if I believe that all people deserve equal rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness under the law, then my answer is yes.

2. I never made a positive claim that women are denied any rights. I was merely responding to your post containing a long list of statistics that you seem to think show evidence for some kind of conspiracy of reverse discrimination organized by feminists. I was pointing out that a few of those statistics may have alternative, and more logical explanations than, "the feminists are doing it!" That's all.
