slee z | Why do females want to be treated equal at work, but not other social places? |
They want same pay, and equal promotion oppurtunity, and don't want to have to come to work in thongs, and stuff like that. But then they want to " be treated like a lady " They want their doors to be opened, they want to be talked to a certain way, they don't want to hear people talk about sex, they don't want to hear about the **** you took last week, or the person you had sex with lastnight. They are offended by pictures showing the human bodey, they don't think they should have to see violence, or hear cussing. They have a problem with certain language. They want to be treated special, have others act a certain way around them, but they get mad if you don't pay them the same. Oh yah, we should pay them more just cuz they are females, for the same way we need to control our language, and somehow feel ashamed of what we like, and how we decorate our space around them too. Additional Details I'm not sexist. I'm all for equality. All the way around. I think we should respect others feelings even if they are differant than the majoraties, we should put up with annoyances from others as they put up with ours, and we should pay everyone the same. Not worrying about what they looklike, how they talk, or what kind of bodyparts they have. |

Man ....It is called etiquette and common decency. As far as equality why do many men expect their women to cook their meals after a hard days labor, and bring them a beer on the sofa but are unwilling to walk around the car and open their car door.
The things which you are complaining about don't belong in the work place even if it is all men. A certain amount of professionalism is required in most jobs. Your clients wouldn't put up with your behavior why would your coworkers.
And lastly ......you have the right to complain about these things when you can straight up say if you found out your wife, girlfriend, mother, or daughter was being treated the way you are saying is equal, you wouldn't be offended and angry. I don't see you telling your mom to suck it up because the guy she works with told her all about his manhood or told her she might get a better evaluation if she'd dress more along the line of an escort |

and why should you be paid more just cause your a man.women miss less work and can usually go longer than a man.as for treating us with respect we ask to be shown respect just like men do.so whats the difference.some men dont like cussing,nude pictures and stuff like that.that stuff is supposed to be for giggling kids not a adult |

I don't want to be treated like a man.....I just want to be paid equal pay for equal work. Anything else going on in the work place should be kept at a PROFESSIONAL setting. I don't care if other men open the doors for me. I do not expect it. On the other hand, I expect my husband to be chivalrous because I do household chores and such for him. Just my opinion;] |

The equal pay is for equal work done, not for your politeness. However, I see you have a slight problem with that. Do me one favor, don't group us all in the same box. Not all of us have to be sugar coated. The problem arises when you abuse the social and or work place ethic, not our personal views on the smut you love. |

To get the same pay for the same work should be normal , don't you think ? ( I work harder then all of my male colleagues....but .... ) And to get a respectful treatment should be normal too!
Well I can open a door on my own and I use to pay my bills own my own ....also I kick in everybodies behind, who treats me disrespectful, on my own too...
Why are so many people thinking, feminism means hating guys... ? |

I used to motocross, and I can honestly say I was pretty good at it, better than a lot of guys that tried to rub in my face how much better they'd be at it just because they were male. I always was able to prove them wrong.
I honestly think, and I speak for myself, not ALL females here, that I just wanted to be treated like a human being. Treat ME as YOU'D like to be treated. If you want to be treated poorly though- that's your issue.
You claim you're not sexist, and perhaps you just dont realize it, but the words you just said ARE sexist. You've just tried to group ALL females into that stereotype, who's to say we're all like that?
I'm not offended by the human body, violence, or cuss words. Some PEOPLE are, not just females. It isnt a female thing, it's a personality thing.
In the first place, if someone dislikes hearing something of any of that sort, you should simply get over it, respect their feelings on the matter, and be an adult about it. Not generalize them. |

They don't want special treatment at work because it has to do with pay and there life. It isn't they don't want to be treated equally so much as they could care less about your gross habits. The same way you could care less about the fabulous Louis Vuitton purse they bought last week or going for a manicure. Not all woman flip out when they see the human body and violence and swearing. I certainly don't. I went to see body worlds.

What I'm trying to say is that women want to be equals. Maybe if you listen to what they say seriously they'll listen to what you say. The thing about doors being opened is silly. Just do it because it's gentlemanly. |

Well... there are some girls that split the check, and even invite the dinner. And the guys want girls to aaaalways look like top models, well we need the clothes, the gym, wax, haircuts, makeup, etc... but avoid "high-mantienance" girls.... well, all that costs, you know? |

I disagree with you. Not all women are like that. I prefer to get equal treatment as well as subjected to violence, nudity, or the **** you took last week. You are limiting yourself to a particular person, obviously. Get over it. |

Women get about 25% less pay for the same job because they do less work.
Women think that work is a time to socialize, not work. This is what I have observed over the past 20 years in various companies.
They spend more time planning a co-workers birthday luncheon than getting their work done.
They can't spell either. Hey, genius towards the bottom; colleague is not the same as college. College is where you go to learn how to spell. |

they have gone bananas.same applies to men. women have turned to men, and men have turned to women. nature wisely wants humans to be extinct because of our attitude. |

it's because the setting is different.
at work, everybody is involved in a professional level.
but when you decide to step into the dating light, then expect and understand that roles change.
it's not going to be about being co-workers.
but rather, it's about a male and female getting together.
of course, you shouldn't forget that maybe they are just challenging you. they'd want to know how far you're gonna go with their games.
but then again, you should take heed that if you let them go too far, the basis of respect is gonna go *poof!* faster than light. |

People naturally want the best of everything. And women are no different in this.
At work, being equal with men in pay and working conditions is best for women. And in personal relationships, having men take care of women is also best for women.
But even in personal relationships this liking for traditional behavior among women quickly disappears, when a man tries to assert dominance and make decisions for the woman according to old traditions.
In many social issues, men and women have opposing and competing interests. And the laws in society often reflect this power struggle between men and women.
Women voters outnumber men. And perhaps in a democracy, the government has to make laws that benefit women more than men. Or else they won't get elected the next time.
That's why women are free choose and pick what they like about the old traditions and demand the best of non-traditional roles too.
When you have the votes, then you have the power to demand the best and leave out the rest. |

You are meeting the wrong type of women and I would say that is because of your age.....you are meeting women who are not yet secure in themselves. They have no clue what being a real woman is nor how to rely on themselves. Yes, they want the money but don't understand that respect is earned. I have no problem opening the door for you, you can talk about body parts and cuss all you like....but don't be offended when I give it back. As far as being treated special.....that's a two way street when intimacy blossoms between two people....there is more joy in spoiling another than being the one always spoiled. |

Women want the same respect that men do. At work you would not speak disrepectively to a work college so why whould you feel that it is ok to speak this way to one that is female. Being treated like a lady is a different kind of respect. To raise your profile to that of a gentleman, something most women really crave, you will need to learn to be polite. Save the beer swilling and the cussing along with the bragging about conquests you imagined you had for the boys club. Have a shower, use the deodant that your mum or your sister gave you for Christmas, iron your clean shirt before you put it on and buy her flowers. |

Women want to be treated as women. The equality they seek are in the areas of opportunities, compensation, respect, accommodation, etc. They don't want to be treated like men, especially like insensitive men of low morality. In the same way, most men would not like to be treated like a woman. |

Females deserve to be treated equally at work. They also deserve to be treated "like a lady". Females carry and deliver our children!!! They should be treated better!! |

@KLW
Your comment about "deserving" more respect and better treatment based on the role as child-bearer supports misandry if not being futile as well. Yes, the woman must deal with the inconvenient pain of bearing for 9 months and laboring during birth, however, men share just as much figurative pain in as such as having to cater to needs during this time. Examples of this figurative pain includes erratic hormones, more than usual request for attention, stress and emergency hospital visits/bills. Some of you may think these examples to be juvenile but unless you are a man and have had to experience this then leave your comments out. Back to my point, simply because the woman has the role as child-bearer does not mean she should be entitled to any special treatment because though a man isn't the one giving birth, he still has as much pain and problems throughout the process. |
