http://www.indianchild.com/life_expectany_mortality_india.htm "The average Indian male born in the 1990s can expect to live 58.5 years; women can expect to live only slightly longer (59.6 years), according to 1995 estimates"

It's easy to see how oppressive Indian men are in the following clip.

I get the impression that some of the usual players are out in India. Poverty, lack of education doing their part to create some real DV and some spin to distort the picture.

<Women in the suffragette movement asserted they were campaigning for “equality”, we accepted that assertion due to the extent of discrimination women faced, but men also faced discrimination. For example: Class discrimination for those not entitled to vote. The direct discrimination of conscription. The cultural discrimination of the expectation they would fight and die for their country, the consequences of this aspect of sex discrimination alone would mean death for 700,000 British men, who were exclusively expected to make the ultimate sacrifice for the freedom of others.

There was a timeless, widespread and enduring acceptance the safety and well being of women was of greater social importance than the safety of men. Equality should have also meant front line military service for women but that was inconceivable.

These and other aspects of sex discrimination were never recognised by our society or the feminists who claimed they were fighting for “equality”.

We accepted the feminist assertion of equality, but who amongst us would claim the feminists fought against the injustice men faced with the same enthusiasm they fought against injustice faced by women.>

<By 1914, sexual issues permeated the literature and propaganda of virtually every suffrage organization. Prostitution and venereal disease were the favored topics employed to illustrate the condition of women in a male-controlled society (Kent 159). As the influence of the Pankhurst’s WSPU (Women’s Social and Political Union) increased, so did the sexualized nature of the feminist struggle play out in the public forum.>

CHERFUL,

'Men don’t value the work of women, they treated women’s work as a God given service.'

I think you're wrong. I think women appreciate men defending them at war, putting out the garbage and sucking up to a boss they hate and renovating the house and putting their comfort first, going cold while they volunteer their coat to keep her warm, and doing all sorts of things. Most of my mate's dads had a list of jobs to do on the weekend, prepared by their wives during the week. Their marriages were a true loving partnership, and if anything the wives ran the show because their husbands adored them so.

Men appreciate the things their wives do for them.

I pity you if you think men and women haven't enjoyed each others company and worked together as a team to raise their families in a loving environment full of respect. So sad. You must have had terrible role models, or must have been brainwashed by the feminist black-armband view of history, that denies the love men and women have had for each other throughout the ages.

Go and talk to some old people and ask them about their wives and husbands.

Women have come a long way in 100 years.

From:

A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle

To:

A woman without a man is like a very lonely, recklessly environment polluting spider in a fabulously exotic Web without a big juicy fly to consume, only a host of bloody nuisance gnats who won't put out the garbage, put the toilet seat up or take the blame for her environmental carnage.

Such are the consequence of a having two headed coins or your left hand being equal to the RIGHT.

Confucius say:

Any commodity on equal free market only popular & valuable if unequal, rare & like fish, spend much time in schools.

vanna,

It seems that your opinion of motherhood in this country has obviously been skewed by your own experience.

I'm a mother who takes motherhood seriously. All the mothers I know are dedicated to their role. In fact, our towns and cities are teeming with mothers whose devotion is plain to see.

It's the same the world over - mothers devoting themselves to the care and consideration of their families - who, in the blink of an eye, would sacrifice their own welfare for the sake of their child.

<Mothers' alcohol abuse is a stronger indicator of antisocial and criminal children than rough neighbourhoods, a new study has found>
http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-national/alcohol-key-factor-in-criminal-kids-20110225-1b7ws.html

Mind you if it was about the fathers alcohol intake, we'd all be hearing about, it would be on the radio, the circle, kerryanne, in the new idea, women weekly, cleo, cosmo, vogue, on the morning show, a current affairs, the view, even on good old OLO.

But because research does not support feminist ideology about fathers being a risk to children, there is a deafening silence.
