Controversial General Political Discussion

The physical differences between men and women are real but do mental differences even exist?

Yes. As a example, while men and woman tend to have the same IQ, woman tend to be average while men equally distributed in the scale (so you have more chances of seeing savants and retards in men but not woman- which is something amazing that is ignored in the name of false equality). Even the way we think and act have differences, with men more focused on problem solving and woman in social endeavors. This also applies in how we handle stress: the fact that men in stressful situations have a more violent response is another reason why males tend to be better soldiers. Frankly, while not something that leftists accept, humans-as a species- have sexual dimorphism and people saying that we are equal or that men can be women are sprouting nonsense.

If you are talking about intelligence. There are noted differences, though. Such as women being maturing mentally faster than men. They also both have strengths in different areas than each other, though it's not definite. It's more on scale such as women tend to be more emotional and nuturing.



I watched the entire thing. I felt like he spewed lies.

Also, I think it's quite offensive when I hear him compare January 6th to the Civil War, like they were on equal terms. Then again, I have seen college-aged kids say that they couldn't say which was worth January 6th or September 11th and some said January 6th. I shouldn't be shocked anymore.

Then he accuses the border crisis on Trump when it's he who undone on the first day the things that kept it secure and he could've fixed it at any time he wanted and still could with a simple pen, but wants to hold Republicans responsible because they don't want to sign a bill with excessive spending for things that have nothing to do with the border.

I think he is out of touch and trying to blame food companies for his inflation. We know we can't afford what we used to under him. We know we have to live off credit under him because we can't afford things like our electric bills and household goods, which has nothing to do with fewer chips in a damn bag.

I actually think it's funny because most of the things he spoke that were actual achievements seemed to be things that Trump did and he had to revert. Like the insulin prices seems to be something that Trump managed to do, he reverted and after a while brought back and took the credit. The illegals entering was a major Trump ''point'' that he removed on the first day and now wants to bring in a worse form (accepting illegals up to 5thousand or something). The thing about economy is one that I don't understand: he basically stated that americans are living better now than under Trump, but people state that even when they were suffering from Covid, things were better under Trump. Does he think that people forget that easily?

The other points he talked about are basically populist shit that people like Lula, Maduro and others promise and never are able to fulfill. Incredible disappointed if Americans believe this bullshit. One point in his favor: he was able to speak-more or less- coherent. The propaganda that he was a bumbling fool took a hit because of it.

For e.g men are higher risk takers, more assertive, more disagreeable, etc whereas women are usually the opposite in these areas they’re agreeable, not as assertive usually, they have higher emotional intelligence etc.

Such as women being maturing mentally faster than men. They also both have strengths in different areas than each other, though it's not definite. It's more on scale such as women tend to be more emotional and nuturing.

Aren't these just culturally learned behaviors?

Not only that but they affect the troops because of male instincts to protect females and the risks of rape and other things.

When there are no women men will just rape each other I mean look at prisons.

There's a reason why it was always a sign of despair when woman had to take arms.

Oh great another history "expert"

even the most liberal soy countries today haven’t deployed women on the front lines for active combat

No women in active combat huh? Where did you get this statement from?

For any of you who watched Senator Katie Britt's rebuttal and don't speak fluent southern. Bless your heart is a nice way we say F* You.

I gave it a speed read but for what I understood the women or kind of "forced" to fight because the situation was so extreme they had no other choice. And what people here is claiming is that if a country come to recruit women is because they are about to collapse.

I don't think learned behaviors have a leg to stand on as an argument because these traits have been observed since the beginning of recorded history and dominate all cultures without contact. It also matches with what each person's body is built to do. Such as women being able to birth and feed their offspring and also having more patience than men. Men can naturally be stronger and faster becoming the protectors & providers of said women and children--historically.

Our world now is different where these roles aren't required, but whether you believe in god or some other form of the start of life, the structure was built in DNA for humans to survive.

These roles aren't absolute. Many vary on a spectrum. When I was a little girl, everyone joked that I should have been a boy. I had no interest in babying dolls. I was busy climbing trees and jumping off the top of D8K's cabs. I just wanted to be one of the boys. Then at nineteen I became a mom and a rush of instincts I never had kicked in. My violent side turned to patience. I no longer got annoyed at babies' cries and became attentive. Even now when I hear a baby cry in a store, my first instinct is to help them even though they aren't mine.

I think there have also been studies that show how our hormones affect these things and how our mind works, but that'll hurt my brain having to read it and regurgitate it.

You bunch of fucking idiots. Every modern army has women in their ranks fighting in the front line even far right wing countries like Israel but you keep arguing your lame ass theories that women cannot aim 🤡

Then you are ignoring evolution and natural selection.

We evolved to this way (homo sapiens-sapiens used to be neanderthal, homo erectus, homo habilis etc) and the ones who wasn't structure this way (both body, mental and as a society) didn't survived (or was even extinct by us).

It’s crazy how capitalism fails to meet the basic needs of anyone bar a select group of elites

 

[Malakhith]

Most likely hyperbole because he thought that asserting that most woman aren't physically equal to men somehow means that all women are worse than men. He even uses the example of Israel while ignoring the fact that most women in Israel army aren't in the combat roles or are even infantry and the whole debate that accepting women is most a political motivated stunt (according to this article in december, Israel had a all time high amount of women asking for combat roles and this was only 12% of them- of which NONE of them would be deep in enemy lines and most of them would be working from inside a tank. ) and the whole issue that units are outright barred from them alongside the accusations of rape.

The funny part is that shooting is one of the few things that a women can do as well as men.

I'm gonna watch this just because it's funny that my daughter just opened up a Lunchable. Nacho and cheese.
[automerge]1709933143[/automerge]
I think a Lunchable is a far better option for the upper-grade levels in high school where they never step into the lunchroom for a healthy meal, but head out to the vending machine where their first meal of the day consists of a candy bar and Mountain Dew. I don't understand why they would sell them in schools for the younger kids because if their parents wanted them to have Lunchables they would've packed them for them.

I am not sure if they were created by the same company but now there are Lunchable like healthier meals that contain nuts/dried fruits etc that focus on protein.

I do disagree when he said parents are forced to look at them because the cost of food vs. lunch isn't the problem. It's being tired a real problem, especially for households where both parents work or a single-parent household.

I also laugh when I hear people with no kids or brand new parents say I would never I'm always like ok. Check back with me in 10 years.

Women around here are good at it. We were raised to be. I still don't think I could carry a man on my back for miles though. Some women excel in physical endeavors. Ronda Rousey--for the record, she outsold men in her career and therefore made more than most of them.

I just think it’s fucked up how the government doesn’t care enough to seriously fund childhood nutrition.

Why can’t we give kids high quality nutritious food, regardless of how much money their parents have?

It’s crazy how so many politicians will posture about protecting kids from “wokeism” and trans people, but give two fucks about giving them good and healthy food.

 

[Haoshoku]

Should have been clearer, meant to say women aren’t deployed as infantry soldiers in active war zones. Otherwise they’ve been slowly integrated to do other things such as flying combat aircraft over the decades. There might be exceptions as they’re changing things but usually it’s not the case you see the strongest militaries in the world deploying women in active war zones, there’s a reason why selective service for e.g is mandatory for men.

Yeah. This I can respect and I certainly hope that the war ends soon on your end and with your victory over terrorists.

It's a problem. One is easily solvable but all politicians are in it for money. A while back I talked about how democrats refuse to come together to provide school choice to children because their donors are invested in keeping the system as is. They don't care, either side. They pick a side and do whatever their funders tell them to do. I'm sure there are deals with certain food companies as well that keep the food this way. That's why they still allow "junk" food to still be purchased with what previously was called food stamps.

A thing I can say about the US at least. Is woman will never be required to sign up for the draft because of the issues we discussed here. I also don't think anyone would ever feel right about forcing a woman into battle. I'm a woman, and I wouldn't feel right about it.

I don’t like the idea of a draft

but if it exists I don’t think it should discriminate based on gender.

There are women who have devoted their lives to serving in the military. I don’t see why we can’t ask female citizens to go fight if we are asking the same from men.
