Who has more advantages in life?

Recommended Posts

The most popular opinion I've heard is that women have more advantages in life; they have fewer restrictions, whereas men have to present themselves a certain way to society. Just wondered what other's views were...

I think women have an advantage, but it's still men who make the rules. Given that the establishment has a several thousand year old foundation, I don't see those relevant scales changing.

Anyone who misconstrues the preceeding statement with sexism, please re-read it. I'm simply stating what appears to me, to be reality.

Other than that...I love women. I'm a lesbian of sorts. :P

I think that men and women have different advantages. I agree with the statement that men make [most] of the rules, but yes, boobs do give women a big advantage in certain respects. But I also think that men have the advantage that [I feel] they can get away with things that women can't plus, men usually make more money in the work place.

Historically throughout time, men have had the advantage. But times are changing (and so they should). So women have never had it better than what they have now (of course that's not to say that things are perfect). I believe that there are advantages and disadvantages towards being male or being female. But unfortunately society is still very vane as the beautify people are given more opportunities than the less than beautify and vanity is held at a higher standard for women as it is for men.


Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Opportunities are what you make them.
Men and women have "equal" amount of opportunity, they
are just different opportunities, depending on how you look at it.
It is really subjective.
I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

I agree with these statements, however, I look at it this way. There are certain ideas that are generally related to men, and others generally related to women. However, it's common for a woman to enjoy sports or to wear a pair of pants, while it's generally not acceptable for a man to go get a his nails done or to wear makeup and a dress.
I guess the reason I see women with the upper hand is because we can have multiple roles in life, whereas men are expected to be more "macho" and uphold a very masculine ideal.
Plus, if we don't get what we want the first time, we can use a little sexual persuasion!;)

Women, for sure. A nice rack will get you anything you want. Personally, I've been thinking of getting implants just for the free jumps and extra altitude at the DZ.



That's only if you use them to get what ya want:P

Women until a certain age, then men.



What age is that? I ask because that may be the case for a few years (not sure why, though), but since women typically live longer than men, I would definitely say women have the advantage after 72.

Nobody should be forced to 'play a role' or wear a mask.



I agree with you 100%, which is why I brought this up to begin with! Personally, I like a guy who can be sensitive, not one who feels he has to be tough all the time, but that's what society expects.
How many times have you seen people point to the sensitive guy and say "oh, he must be gay"? It's not fair at all; women who like sports aren't labeled as butch...
