Modern Feminism Ignores Working-Class

I don't think you know how discussion works. You just seem bent on attacking.

I really see it as you projecting.

It isn't "my" case and it deals with mental health. So you can't handle watching a video. Gosh, better ask for your money back, I guess.

Did he have to PAY to see it?? (Just kidding).

Total get your reason for putting it under mental health. My sons are of the age and time, they have often run into women who have expectations they just don't "get". They don't know what the rules the opposite sex is "playing" by are at times, nor why women have become so hyper focused on having their way about things. Not saying all women they date, but many.

Also agree with what you say about some jobs (and she) are more suited to femaleness and some more suited to maleness.

Overall I think there needs to be a more balanced approach, get back to the way men and women complement each other in many, many ways.

There is a reason our brains and bodies are structured and function the way they do: one strong, one not as strong; one more verbal one not as verbal; one likes these things, but the other trends toward those things.

After having watched women and men in the military? Women are no wear near as good as making a team work and getting a mission off its feet than men. In GENERAL from my experiences, women are better at support, men are better at leading.

I'd rather lead men than women; women bring so much DRAMA to a mission or job! JUST my experience, though.

And men don't whine and get their "feelings" off kilter so easily as most women; I think it may be because women just don't take something at face value? Not sure.

Well you 'think' wrong my friend, nobody's attacking you, don't be so defensive. You titled this thread as "Modern Feminism Ignores Working-Class", so maybe you got some skin in this game. Just tell your story.

Just sharing my own experience. Some of the best leaders I've known have been women. Why? Because the #1 quality in a leader is truly caring about his/her team, and IMO women tend to be more empathetic. People will go to the ends of the earth for someone who actually cares about their personal lives and can target their greatest strengths when assigning tasks.

I worked for woman at a large company who used to entertain employees at her home and would always take the time to ask about how we were doing. Her team consistently outperformed other departments and she became president of that company. The men I've worked for rarely discussed anything other than business. It's frequently out of their comfort zone.

I personally managed a large sales team handling 3 continents that included both men and women. Yes, they each had their own strengths and there could be more drama with the women, but in most cases the women outperformed the men because they formed stronger bonds with the individuals in their accounts.

I can't speak to the military because I have no experience there.

Agree women are good with sales in most cases and with caring professions; women do form bonds with men and women differently, different than men/men bonds, etc.

i watched the video and agree that the speaker makes some good points. I also agree with CooCooforCoCoPuffs about how interesting it is to observe gender differences in boys and girls.

I remember waiting outside the school for my son to come out from kindergarten. The little girls would come mincing out two by two clutching their papers. My son and his friend would bust the doors open, grab each other, roll together off the porch and into the grass for a bit of wrestling. Every day. They're curious creatures, the males.

That demonstrates that the gender differences are in-built, not conditioned.

 

[CooCooforCoCoPuffs]

No doubt in my mind gender differences are built in! They can tell if a brain is female or male by scans. They can tell if a skeleton is male or female or even what race it is in some instances.

We are not all born "equal" when it comes to physical and intelligence attributes.
We are not all born "equal" when it comes to circumstances of birth.
We are not born equal when it comes to being born with abnormalities and birth defects, birth injuries.

We ARE born "equal" to opportunity we encounter, and having a will, choices to make, an ability to develop drive within ourselves; we all are born equally in that we have God with us on our journey, if we so choose - therefore we can all overcome.
