Originally posted by Falcon Horus View PostIt comes forth from an athropological viewpoint that a society has to protect the most vulnerable in their midst, and in every tribe, community and society, children are considered the weakest and are also the future of the tribe, community or society. Without children you die out.
Originally posted by Falcon Horus View PostNote: holding the door for a woman to exit first, is not considered very chivalrous as you neglected to check whether it's save for her to leave. A misconception of the gentleman-ways.
Originally posted by Falcon Horus View PostIf you are offended that women and/or children get preferential treatment in anything, you only have your fellow men to blame for that. You literally created that whole thing yourself.

It's a survival of the species kind of thing. Although it takes two to tango, in a species threatening disaster, men are more expendable.
Suppose something happens which drastically reduces the number of humans. A single male can impregnate a number of women per day, and then move on to the next batch the next day. A female on the other hand, once impregnated, is out of the game for at least 9 months. So in order to replenish the numbers of a stricken group of humans as quickly as possible, you need far more women than you do men.

How many single dads you know?
How many men you know work in day cares/as child minders? None cause society sees them as creeps and thus makes it hard as hell if not impossible.
Men used to have male only gyms, women had theirs.. MEN got sued to make their gyms co-ed or shut down. WOemn still have their women only gyms..
Practically EVERY BAR Has a womens night (ladies night). NEVER ONCE seen a mens night.
Divorce, the man is 95% of the time getting screwed over..

Annoyed's explanation is a bit creepy to say the least, but he neglects to add inbreeding of the species if only one male has to impregnate 10 women. This will ultimately still lead to death of the species.
Patriarchal societies, which most of modern day societies have evolved from deem the male sex the stronger sex and it's up to them to look out for the weaker sex -- you only have the male species to blame for the viewpoints as such.
I found an opinion piece that shows an interesting view on the patriarchal society and how it affects men:

I didn't forget about the inbreeding issue. I just was looking at replenishing the numbers as fast as possible. Certainly, there will be defectives, but over time, they will weed themselves out again.

Originally posted by Annoyed View PostI get it, but do you?
You may recall, I favor protectionism of US industry, and that is indeed my primary concern with objections to the temporary waiver being rescinded. Those who favor "free trade" think they have a foot in the door towards repealing the law altogether. Sorry, I'd rather slam the door shut on that foot.
Your populist path will lead to less choices, lower quality products, higher prices and shortages. And assuming that wages somehow increase, which they won't because economics doesn't work that way, those increased wages would be eaten by the resulting inflation.
In any event, the issue is Puerto Rico, and how Trump wants to "pull out" like if it is a foreign country and not American Soil. Why is he so reluctant to help out versus helping Texas and Florida? Oh wait...could it be a race thing?

And... let's not forget the aspect of forcing a man onto women who might not want this action taking place -- either side.
Originally posted by Gatefan1976 View PostActually, no they won't. There is a minimum threshold of diverse genetic material required to actually -rebuild- the race, and last time I read something about it, it was 38 men and women. Anything less and the genetic replication errors will still create terminal results for the species.
