Men versus women : Comments

By Rosie Williams, published 8/3/2011

Bullying shouldn't be a field for gender equity, but unfortunately it too often is.

Well that is where we are different vanna. I would prefer a competent and consultative style of manager - the gender is irrelevant.

Pelican,

Well that is interesting.

But in your search for knowledge, how often would you consult websites such as the following.

http://www.sciencealert.com.au/

http://www.nature.com/news/index.html

http://www.newscientist.com/

http://www.sciencemag.org/

It is interesting that the vast majority of readers of those websites are evil (should I say it) males.

Well I will take your word for it. If it is only evil males reading it I would be in poor company and would rather direct my energies elsewhere.

Pelican,

Your so hot your making me sexist.

I think the readership of those websites does say quite a lot. Males in general are more technically orientated, and pursue more scientific knowledge.

Science leads to industry, which eventually leads to wealth, and eventually men begin to accumulate more wealth.

This then is called male “power and control” or “patriarchy” (as referenced by the author)

So what do we do now.

Abandon science, industry and wealth, so that we will have a more feminine society?

vanna,

"Science leads to industry, which eventually leads to wealth, and eventually men begin to accumulate more wealth."

Unfortunately the science inspired model almost completely bypasses the fundamental core of human experience - so that accumulation and wealth become the sole motivation of life.

How utterly sad that this has become the dominant Western paradigm. How limiting it is of the human dimension - and how evident is the lesson that wealth creation is "not" the key to a life well lived.

Good article, however as it tends not support feminist dogma, and prejudice it will go the way most of these go.

Which is highly sugggestive that feminists cannot tolerate a mirror being held up to them. Whilst the microscopic focus remains at all times on male behaviour, feminists can avoid dealing with the real issues about equality.
