Women get a better deal than men

I hate saying this but women do get a better deal than men. For starters they live quite a lot longer than men, on average about 8 years longer! And then there's the sexual peak thing. Men 18 or thereabouts and women around 40ish. Biology sure is a b*tch! This means that women are older enough to appreciate their peak while a lot of men are lucky if they even get a shag! Women are also less likely to kill themselves, and are on the whole, a lot cleverer than men! There's loads more things where women out do men but I can't be bothered to mention them. If there is a God he is a very cruel one indeed!

Who says God is a He? Heehee, sorry.

I don't know, I think men have a much better deal. Supposedly they get more distinguished (this is completely debatable, but is the commonly-held belief) while we just get old. Plus we have to have the babies, and have our bodies get all wrecked from that.

There are two sides to the baby thing, yes our bodies get wrecked but it is kind of neat, I mean feeling them inside and all. Plus we always know when a child is truly ours LOL.

God has no sex, that lable was drawn on by humans who could not conceive of something sexless. IMHO

Yeah of course, God is a women, he must be!

Nah I think women are getting their own back, after thousands of years being treated like ****, they're trying to make men feel inadequate and pointless. That's the feminist point of view anyway.

By the way we are catching up on you guys with dying young, heart disease and all, YEAH womens liberation ;)

Women have monthly periods for years and all the "good deal" that comes with that like cramps, bloating, having to run to the bathroom to change tampons or pads, and of course PMS. Then we have to worry about getting pregnant when we are not wanting to and when we do we then get to gain 30 or more pounds, get stretch marks, and push a bowling ball out of us. Don't forget we get to look forward to menopause. Hot flashes, mood swings, hormones (to take or not to take) and all sorts of female only medical conditions.

I just listed a few. However, I do like being a woman but I don't think we have it so much better.

Wig, we have a long way to go to make you feel as pointless as women have felt. With all the screams of racial inequality, (well founded) remember black MEN could vote before ANY woman could.

LOL Tru since my hysterectomy I almost FORGOT how much fun it was. I did not own a pair of underwear that was not blood stained. Thanks for reminding me LOL. I had terrible periods and would have to wear two tampons and a pad. How sexy is THAT!!!

This absolutely has to be a satirical post.

Women, on the whole, are a very oppressed category of humanity.

The most heartbreaking testimonies on this forum are almost invariably from women.

The beauty (cosmetics) industry, the fashion industry, and the dieting industry all work in concert to wreck any semblance of healthy self-esteem in far too many women...

So that they can then fix themselves with a prescription of Zoloft or Prozac or what-have-you, courtesy of the pharmaceutical industry.

Methinks there's too much "industry" in control of the feminine mind in the USA. ;)

Well I suppose it was slightly tounge in cheek but I do think that women on the whole have a pretty good time of it nowadays. It's got to the point now where I'm starting to think 'What about men?' Men are constantly criticised by women, sometimes justifiably, but there are a lot of nice men out there too!

Harrison I AGREE with you, maybe I ODed on PROZAC LOL

But at least we can pee standing up.:D

It's not the deal you get, but how you play the hand

True, JungMan (heehee, cool name!). I feel like I'm losing my hand. Blah... feel so down these days. Oooh, the negativity!

MEN AND WOMEN ARE DIFFERENT: AND THAT IS GOOD! We each have our own unique pros and cons.....but who would have it any other way??? I hate MAN BASHING just like I hate woman bashing. Too much time wasted on putting down the opposite sex. THere are SELFISH AND RUDE people on both sides, but there are good and kind people on both sides too.
We just think differently thats all, we can learn from each other.

ALSO, TRU WHAT DO YOU MEAN A BOWLING BALL?? EXCUSE ME, but my child was more the size of a basketball!!!!!!!!!!! 2 ounces shy of 9 pounds. OUCH. Looked like a football player coming out! I couldn't watch. lol

This is funny......My first child, I got wheeled into delivery room stark nekkid (as we say in Texas) cause I had 3 IVs in me and the gown was basically laid over me and there was about what 15 people in there including the orderly cleaning. lol and then there was this huge mirror and I said what is that for? And the anesthetist leaned over and whispered, WE ARE PERVERTS!!! The doctor said it is so you can watch. Okay everyone sees you, and at that moment you dont care if you are on national television you just want to HAVE THE BABY.....

So think abou that and then my ex goes to get a vasectomy 2 kids later and he says..."How humiliating....I had to spread my legs in front of a women nurse and the doctor was touching me...How would you feel if you had to spread your legs in front of people?" I just looked at him and he looked at me for a minute, then he said OH, and started laughing. GEEZ!!!

LOL

You guys can pee pictures in the snow too. Dang. :D

Don't get down PinkCat, according to the spam I get, everything can be made better herbally and cheaply. Pennies a day!

Oh Jannie, you really made me laugh!!The things we do to get our kids here:eek: from morning sickness (that can last all day) to those poking, prodding exams every week at the end!! If you're a modest person, you wont be by the end of 9 months lol. Pretty much everyone from the janitor to the nurses to the doctors have seen your nekkidness:p . And then by delivery time, you just dont care who sees what !!!! Just get the thing OUT!!!!!
So I agree with all the other ladies, we have periods from about age 13 to well into our 40's, then everything gets all screwed up with menopause (damn hormones!!) plus the pregnancies, any number of "female problems", cramps, pms,yearly exams, oh yeah, and those wonderful mammograms!!! Gee, I'm surprised no one has mentioned THOSE yet!!!! Why dont you guys stand in an open gown, in an ice cold room and try having one of YOUR parts squished between two metal plates by either a total stranger OR someone you know (dont know which is worse) so that the plates are about an INCH apart???I used to have a really funny cartoon called a "manogram" where a guy was having his you know what squished lol. I happened to think it was pretty funny lol. So no, being a woman isnt all fun and games, but then again, I dont think men could handle being women;)

SG

shh... SGal... how about into your 50's... like almost 57... every month, even with no hormones????

As far as feeling too badly for men.... I will when a womans average pay is 100% equal to a man's. I think in the past 2 years the disparity is widening again.

Janie... they are bigger in Texas. My youngest weigh'd 10 Pounds! She was caesarean. She is fine except when she leaves the house, she goes out the window. :D

Southergal: LOL I forgot about mammograms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ive only had one but I WILL NEVER forget it......I felt like my breast were disconnected from my body. The woman doing the mammogram looked like one of those Russian women you see (stereotype) Nazi people, you know like a refrigerator on stilts..lol I wanted to laugh but you know it would be kind of not the place to laugh. I didn't know my boob could get that flat or be stretched like that.

I did have a good experience with a guy once when I was pregnant (HAHA that didnt really sound right did it ? ) LOL okay anyway I was 8 months pregnant and had to have a diabetes test and I was tired and started crying...for some reason, just sat there crying and this young guy was supposed to take my blood and I had tears streaming down my cheeks and he said WHATS WRONG in such a sweet voice that I started crying more, and he said awwww, you poor pregnant women, they put you through so much and then I really started crying and he took my hand and held it and talked to me sweetly until I got over my hormone moment. He was the nicest person (there was no flirting, you could tell he was genuinely concerned) SO my point is :

THERE ARE GOOD GUYS OUT THERE. .... and since Im completely off the subject of this thread I might as well add Southerngal that you are a dead ringer for my sister. You look a lot like her and I look like her too. MY pic does not look like me in real life. I don't know where that thing came from! :) Okay I will shut up now and get back to work.
:p

Every lump we feel is a panic run to the doctor's just in case.

I can deal with the mamograms, but those darn pap smears I really, really hate. Thank goodness that 3 negative returns means I can now do that every 2 years.

There's also the occasionally fibroid that pops up, had one of those too and surgically removed.

And the constant changes in menstrual cycle just as you're getting the hang of not making any plans for the first week of the months, boom...cycle changes to the 3rd week of the month and you have a great date with Joe boxer and the last thing you want to be doing is hold hands, getting hugged, socializing and carry tampons and/or pads while still plastering a big old Minnie smile on your face. Yakapoo.

...and it hurts when you lose your virginity.... not to mention no one expects men to live ten pounds underweight their whole lives AND when men are direct, they are considered assertive. When a woman is, she is being a b****.
