Women are treated differently by society for exactly the same reason that children and the mentally handicapped are treated differently.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
How come women are treated differently from men all the time? Not only handicapped people, but women - and handicapped women, forget it!
I believe that women should be treated just like men.
Women are obviously much more discriminated against than men in many ways.
If you look at any other group of people suffering injustice, women are always in the worst situation within that group.
A woman is handicapped by her sex, and handicaps society, either by slavishly copying the pattern of man's advance in the professions, or by refusing to compete with man at all.
Why is a woman to be treated differently? Woman suffrage will succeed, despite this miserable guerilla opposition.
If women want to be treated equally, then they can't ask for sops and whine about not being treated equally. All I'll say is no guts, no glory for men or women.
Often, the disparities in the ways men and women are treated are subtle; there are not these clear barriers that you have to break down.
I think women have the right to consult their own wishes, needs, and capacities and produce only loved, wanted children they can care for - or even no children at all. I think we would all be better off as a society if we respected women's ability to make these decisions for themselves and concentrated on caring well for the born.
I grew up in a time when many people believed that men and women should not always be treated equally.
