Men are better then Women Period.

That just doesn't sound logical.

 

They're just arrogent.

 

What about the people that don't realize they are stupid? How does one admit to something when they are not aware of it?

 

I don't know if I'm chauvinist or feminist. How can you tell?

 

lol. Amen

 

I see your point. So in a way, a "stupid" person is someone who thinks they know enough or know more that most people, while in comparison a "smart" person is someone who continues to seek out more. For example a smart persons motto would be once you learn something it's not important. It's what you don't know that is. Am I understanding you correctly?

 

All right, I'll bite.

You're an ENTP, and true to your type, I assume you've done your research into this. I doubt you'd waltz into a discussion like this unarmed. Particularly when you say that 'no one bothers with real history' and yet, you start your discussion with a whole paragraph that is in itself a loaded statement.

Can you illustrate your reason for your opinion with historical examples, please? Where in history did you see these power struggles play out? How did they play out? What was the nature of the 'power struggle'? A full out war? Amazons vs. Spartans? How do you know everyone 'started out' equal? Is this some sort of biblical reference? How exactly is history repeating itself in this regard?

I agree that the people who are ignorant of their own...intellectual shortcomings tread an especially challenged, cognitive path, but that's who they are in an individual capacity. I don't think you can say everyone is equally stupid. Or equally smart, for that matter. Equality does not apply to individual varibles that can be voluntarily or environmentally cultivated or subdued.* Just as there's going to be someone more physically attractive than you are (because they've won the genetic lottery or they work on their fitness), there's always going to be someone less stupid than you (be it that they've had more worldly experience, or process information more quickly and efficiently, etc).

But you're saying that people as a species are extremely stupid. Okay. I'm intrigued. Stupid as opposed to what or whom? Why is everyone stupid? What must be realized, in your opinion, for the human race to be extremely intelligent? Or balanced?


* Equality, I believe, is the guarantee of the same rights and freedoms applied to fixed groupings and variables, such as culture, gender, race, sexual orientation, etc. It is, as a concept, however, fairly dependent on our societal values at the time.

 

The only reason that this thread's title caught my attention was the grammar mistake

"Men are better then Women Period."


Questions.

"Females had all the power one time, and then Males, and it was back and forth."
I'd like a citation, or at the very least, and explanation on what your reference is.

Define the following terms: Male Chauvinist, Feminist, Equalist

Now explain how this will be implemented "Male Chauvinist for the males who are Chauvinist, and for Chauvinism against the females who are Feminist" and clarify if it is gender based ( such as, would you argue against a male feminist?)

 

Equalist? What's that supposed to mean?

How can a man be equal to a woman in giving birth?

And no, I don't think that it can be ignored. Simple biological mechanisms like that greatly influence our society. For example women and men plan their careers differently because of maternity leave. Mothers also spend more time with their babies and influence them more, because they make better emotional bonds.

 

Yeah you bastard. I was going to comment until I saw that slant did.

 

I told myself I'd bite my tongue but here goes...

I find it incredibly ironic that you used a quote from who is generally considered a genius, to back up your claims that all people are equally stupid. If this is true, Enstine's quote should be just effective as your words, which by what ever way you view intelligence and stupidity, hold the same meaning and intelligence as a mentally handicaped vegetable who is making sounds by mashing their teeth together and going "akdfja aaaiskkdi ARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!"

 

? Smart people?

I think Confusious put it better: "true knowlege is knowing the extent of ones own ignorance." A truley smart person would be less smug and humble knowing the extent of how much he himself has yet to learn.

 

I'm stupid.

There, do I win a prize?
