Sociology is pretty cool.

In class, we are learning about girls wanting equal rights and getting them by becoming CEOs of major businesses.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/zzzzz.gif.06fa1eabe00c8b872d7e814474c9b95c.gif Today we watched a video on "breaking the glass ceiling." The women on the clip kept talking about working to get a woman as president. Whenever it was over, the girls in class kept saying that it would be possible and its only fair.

Many of the guys in the class exploded (including me). Women want their equal rights but dont have to sign up for the draft plus numerous other things. They dont complain about that unfairness but the fact that a woman cant run the country. Dont most countries look down on females. Hence if we had a female president, America would be looked down upon (more than it already is).

I was just curious about everyone's thoughts on this subject. Should that be the exception to women getting "equality"? It just blew my mind the way the females in the class thought they deserved the title yet they havent done as much in this country as males.

I know plenty of women who deserve certain jobs over the current men in those positions.

In my opinion, those who haven't been involved in some sort of "work" (McDonalds, mowing lawns ... doesn't count) or post-secondary education don't hold a very valid justification for their opinion on the topic of women holding jobs higher up the ladder in corporate america.

I agree with you that they seem to only want equality on certain parts, i.e., better jobs and wage, not the draft or things of that nature.

You have no idea how many brain cells I lost trying to comprehend this. School is about expanding your horizons, getting rid of your teeange, chauvanist, ethnocentric viewpoints, and attempting to understand society so one day you can make it better. All you come up with is "duuuuur women bad uhhhhhhh they cant fight in the army ummmmmm dude they ****."

Other countries look down on America because we as a people, and government, are selfish, and there are far too many morons like you. It's assinine to assume that other nations would go "dude, america has a woman president *snicker* a woman! LOL!!!!!". Die.

I tried to read this again and make some sense of it, you are an idiot to the nth degree. If you have to earn equality, then it's not really equality, is it? Do you chastise blacks because they spent so many years in slavery, not doing anything except picking cotton? When you're denied opportunities to do things, it's *gasp* hard to do things. Again, die.

Yay for Western social theory and the traditional domestic-public dichotomy! Screw women!

Holy fuking ignorant retard.

Women "havent done as much in this country as males" in this country because they haven't been given the opportunity to. You honestly think America is completely equal and indiscriminate? We may be more legally equal than most of the world, but we are far from socially equal.

So you are saying it's a purely Western "social theory" to think "screw women"?

Plus... do we really want women fighting our wars?

althought it would probably turn war into an argument and we would win.

Men never win arguments...don't know what experience you're basing this on...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

thats what i meant...if the women were fighting for us, its a sure victory!

Touche.

The problem would be making sure they don't get pissed at us as well...

Western social theory is about women being inherently suited for domestic domains and men for public domains due to natural attributes, also hence believing it's universal. I don't want wars period, but thats a whole other issue. And sure, I wouldn't mind having women in the armed forces...

So... what would other parts of the world follow in terms of your social theories? Asia, the Middle East, places like that?
