In terms of Vostroyans, in the codex, it was ALWAYS First Born, not First Born Sons.
GW at no point made a distinction of gender, and any that was made after was a fuck up by whomever said so, and your personal idiotic assumption.

Ah ha ha haha ha haaa!
OP is scared of girls!
>>43517196
Anon is butthurt that Vostroyans, according to FFG Only War books, let girls in the super special fightan' club.
He has not given enough thought to remember the the reason women in 40k are not on front line duty is because making more humans is their duty to the emperor.
OP does not want to get his imperial primer rolled by a barren snow-bitch wearing only a fur hat and boots. OP is a fucking bundle of sticks that eats dicks all day.

Because of course 40k's (snigger) "fluff" is utterly sacrosanct; any variance is met with B-B-BUT IT'S IN THE BOOK and is termed "rape" in some kind of laughable nerd hyperbole

>>43517296
The firstborn sons are always conscripted, but sometimes daughters too.
In 'Commissar', the vostroyan medic was female and the narration described firstborn daughters as either being treated with a great amount of respect or suspicion.Those that read the book would know the latter to be correct.
>>43517248

BL is not canon so it's hardly relevant.
>>43517410
But why exactly is it a fuck-up if it's included in official texts? Sure the WD issue didn't specifiy, but then the Codex does, and so how is that invalidated?

>>43517420
In a way, it's not a very good reason at all, considering that GW fluff constantly contradicts itself basically all the time. I couldn't tell you abut the original author's intent, and it's probably best to assume the same thing you would with all WH40K fluff: It's all canon unless GW states otherwise.I was just shitposting.
>>43517454
>It's all canon
Stop repeating this. It's not true.
>>43517454
>best to assume the same thing you would with all WH40K fluff: It's all canon unless GW states otherwise
Meh, works for me.
>>43517441
>>43517452
Everything is canon unless stated otherwise. Everything is assumed to be written from an in-universe perspective, so depending on the author, someone could have ither gotten it wrong, the piece may be propaganda, or it may be an outsider's perspective on a situation they don't fully comprehend/they bring in their own biases and assumptions which color their perspective.
At least that is how /tg/ genrally has written stuff like this off in the past.
>>43517452
And have you seen how that works out?
It doesn't, because if you only go by newer fluff, a lot of shit isn't explained, like Deathwing's actual origins.

>>43517196
Okay
>>43517476
According to the current editor of BL (picture related), the whole propaganda and lies thing is an excuse for the developers and writers to retcon and change the setting to make it more logical, coherent, and fitting with their vision. It's not up for the players to pick and choose. In the case of contradiction, GW will choose the path they want and write/edit fluff to fit it. Therefore, newer fluff trumps older.

FFG can have whatever they want in their games. It would not affect the main GW lore unless GW says otherwise.

>the Vostroyans have given up the first-born son of every family for service

>the first-born daughters often also join
Nor does it mean "the regiment is entirely, 100% composed of first-born son conscripts". FFG hasn't changed anything, they're just making explicit what was already implicit.
>>43517757
Except that's wrong. The first-born son refers to the first son born to a Vostroyan family, no matter if they're the eldest child or the third. It makes no sense for a Vostroyan family to offer up a first-born daughter when it's their daughters who carry on the family line and continue the production of arms and armor for their first-born sons.
>>43517757
>ignore >>43517486
>titles "firstborn sons"
>regiments literally called "firstborn"
>only talks about first born sons
>"nah, there's girls in there too"
Only if they're some genderfluid faggots who identify as women.
>>43517789
There aren't any contradictions whatsoever in the statement, m8. See the word often; this is implying it is not always the case but does happen often. This does not, by nature, prevent the line from continuing, unless you presuppose that the family only procreates and eeks out a single daughter.
>>43517639
I'm sorry, but it really pisses me off to see these insecure autists go "OH NO ALL IS RUINED FOREVER" whenever a company making books and plastic dolls for sweaty manchildrenincluding meacknowledges that women are actually a thing that exists.
>>43517872
There's nothing in any GW material to even suggest that female Vostroyans join th regiment. Saying so is wrong on its face.
>>43517889
Anon, there's a difference between acknowledging that women exist and having them in the game, and purposefully fucking up established fluff for the sake of some fucked up ideology. Why is it wrong for Vossies to be male only? Literally no one is bitching about Sisters being women only, nor is anyone advocating "well, there's no reason a man couldn't serve in the SoB". That would be retarded. But handwave women into a regiment specifically built around the notion that it's all male and it's just good manners and shit.
This is the type of attitude that doesn't invent creative new superheroes, but takes existing ones, makes them female for no other reason that "we need more female superheroes" and acts all bitchy when someone has a problem with it.
>>43517899
>inb4 "There's nothing in any GW material suggesting X, Y or Z exists. Ergo, by your logic, they don't."
Maybe they draft every firstborn son but everyone else can still volunteer?
Ever thought about that?
You guys argue about the most stupid things.
>>43518074
No. That destroys the entire point of their story.
Remember, this is the Imperium of Man. The masters of Vostroya decided to not honor the requests of Terra during the Heresy and kept everyone on the planet to maintain their production levels. They sacrifice their firstborn sons to the Imperial Guard as a penance, a penance which sees them lose what is traditionally considered the most important component of the family and hurts their productive capabilities as a world and forcing them all to work that much harder to maintain the same level of production and quality. You don't "volunteer" for the Firstborn, in the same way you don't "volunteer" for Delta Force.
>>43518074
Maybe for PDF, but Guard regiments are still firstborn males.
>You guys argue about the most stupid things.
Because faggots can't deal with the fluff and have to insert their bullshit into it.
>>43518094
Maybe the female vostroyan guardsmen come from a vostroyan colony.
>>43518114
>from a vostroyan colony
A what?
All this is moot anyways until OP provides a goddamn source.
>>43518094
Actually, it could reinforce the point.
They sacrifice their firstborn sons to the Imperial Guard as a penance, but for some of them even that isn't enough and non-first born sons and daughters decide to share the burden. In addition to what is required.
Or maybe girls have to go when their isn't any sons to be enlisted in the family.

First born sons what the Vostroyans are required to give. Nothing says they can't go beyond the minimum requirements if they want.

>>43518280
Nothing says Vostroya provides the Guard any other troops than the Firstborn.
In the Only War rulebook, there is a sentence, that clearly states ''the lowliest menials—required to send their first-born sons'' ...
Either way, i think it is a decision for the players to make ,if they want a full female regiment or not.

>>43518280
Why would you go beyond the minimum requirements when it comes to sending your children to go die?
>>43518280
He might not care, but the Imperial bureaucracy does care. The contract with Vostroya, proposed by Guilliman himself, says first-born sons. You go against that and you go against the primarchs, and to an extend, the Emperor.

This is fan bullshit and has never been backed up.
It's likely both the role of men and women is decided by the planet upon which they live. A hive world is likely going to have all eligible people working in the factories, not just the men.
>>43517418
It seemingly is until GW decides otherwise.
>>43517507
The propaganda thing has always been something assumed by the fans. GW really has no reason to engage in such semantics when they can just override the old with the new.
>>43517524
The same thing that stopped real women from joining the military through 98% of human history? And the fact that the fluff has ALWAYS stated it's made of "firstborn sons".
>>43517889
A) No one is saying that. People are mad that this contradicts the fluff of the chapter, and just doesn't make sense.
B) The main thing that pisses people off is that companies do this to pander to faggots like you who have such a low opinion of the hobby for "sweaty manchildren" and are just trying to push an agenda or some other ulterior motive.

>>43517849
Learn to read, every first born son has to serve. Yet nothing states that daughters can not join voluntary.
it's a minor bit of fluff, and trying to hold it 'sacred' seems silly to me.
That said, it seems like they could have handled it better.
For example, having another regiment of first born daughters made up of volunteers, with a similar style. Were the First Born tm are a sign of penence, these are sign that Vostroyans not only meets the call of duty but goes beyond it.
Or have it be that families that produce no male offspring send their daughters to join so they would not be seen as shirking their duty.
It's a silly thing to get upset over, on both sides.
>>43519529
>It is literally stated in the OP that they added females due to tumblrina bitching
Why do you give a shit? Let the tumblrinas have their female guard. It's not hurting you, it's not hurting the game, and it's making people who want female Guard happy.
Why is canon only sacred when it keeps women from coming into your boys only club? Or are you willing to stand up and fight anyone who says that the Ultramarined aren't the ideal of every Space Marine Chapter?
>>43519497
Nice strawman, senpai
>>43519822
It's only a strawman if it isn't your actual argument. Bitching about 40K canon and demanding changes to it is as much a part of the hobby as overpaying for plastic figurines , but as soon as the idea of making it not a boys club comes out, it's as sacred as the God-Emperor himself. It's ridiculously translarent, and I don't know why you think we don't see right through it.
>>43519885
Nice strawman, senpai
>>43519529
>It is literally stated in the OP that they added females due to tumblrina bitching
He's asking for a source for OP, precisely.
Because if FFG removed some character restrictions, the most probable reason would be because players usually don't like restrictions.
Sexual, racial, alignments or whatever restrictions in RPG are not a popular thing, and are often removed, for the better of the worst.
Kinda like 40k removed a lot of lists restrictions, letting players do what they want and justifying it fluffwise or not as they see fit.
I don't necessarily agree with that, but that's how it is.
What make you think tumbler have anything to do about that? I'm not saying it's not the case, but without any justification, it's look like it's OP that want to insert gender politic into it.
>>43519933
So you can't actually respond to anything we're saying, but you don't have the guts to admit you're wrong. Got it.
Oh god the logic in this thread...
Let me break it down for you PC retards.
Firstborn son means the the first child born to a family that has a dick between its legs is bound to join the IG
They consider this a great honor
I highly doubt that they would turn down anyone (regardless of gender) who wishes to join but i also doubt they would go to a firstborn formation.
also anyone who dosent want pic related is gay.
>>43518094
>in the same way you don't "volunteer" for Delta Force.
But you do for that, they volunteer and enter the selection process. It's not forced on you, it's entirely volunteer based.

>raping of common sence [sic]
So it's common sense that in the super future when men with giant pauldrons run around without so much as a ball cap to protect their heads, and when charging screaming into melee is the top tier of most armies' elite strategy, that someone with breasts can't join the group of half brained meat bags whose only job is to shield their tanks with their pathetic, quivering mass?
You, sir, are the retard.
Also, I am against the raping of common spelling. Get an education.
>>43520051
Why bother with someone who is just writing their own arguments? If I say I dislike something because of X and your rebuttal "Nah, you clearly are just a disgusting virgin misogynerd rapist!", there's really no discussion to be had.
So I say again, nice strawman, senpai
>>43520129
Daz rigt. he dun ben not spllin to guud so tharfore he cant not make no arguement.
>>43520143
When your argument is "canon is sacrosanct and should not be changed," but you only make this argument when the change to canon is including women, and never make it for any other change to canon, I think I'm justified in saying "you don't actually believe canon is sacrosanct and should not be changed."
Now you could respond. You could tell me how wonderful the Ultramarines are, and how every Chapter wants to felliate them. You can tell me you're all for the Grey Knights butchering their allies. You can tell me how wonderful it is that someone finally put all four Chaos Gods in their place. You can defend every shitty piece of Warhammer canon that ever existed. Or you can keep pretending I'm strawmanning because that way you don't have to admit you don't really care about 40K canon unless it involves keeping women out of the game.
>>43517418
You of course have a quote from Jack Kirby stating that the Black Library material is not canon?

This is not even arguing about women being in the military.Which I'm all for, provided they pass the same, non lowered tests as everyone else. Even though it normally creates a shitload of problems. People are pissed because FFG caved to stupid SJW being butthurt about made up problems that they don't even actually care about. It would be a different thing if it were complaints from a majority of RPG players that actually play the fucking game. Because in every other media like films or games, it appears that SJW don't actually play/view those things at all, they just yell about them. Most of the media that panders to SJW has failed spectacularly.Though this thread is only slightly less retarded than you, OP has provided no source for his claims of FFG caving in to SJW, apart from 1d4chan, and FFG isn't canon anyway.

You are. You're making up your own arguments and attributing thingsthe other anon, my first post was calling you a strawmannernever said to me.
I think it's dumb that an organization devoted to firstborn sons is opened up to both genders for out of setting politics. I have nothing against female IGs or even female Vostroyans, they just shouldn't be Firstborn and if we're gonna just go full muh equality/diversity on things, we need some male Sisters of Battle and multiracial orks.
>>43520533
I made an argument - who gives a shit? It's a non-issue that makes people happy, so there's no reason to make a big deal about it. I see nothing wrong with catering to SJWs if if doesn't affect anything that matters. The idea of a happy SJW does not send me into paroxysm of impotent rage, and if it does, you are the problem.
>>43521107
There's a big difference between reverting an organization dedicated to firstborns so that it once again accepts soldiers of both sexes and changing an organization created to take advantage of a loophole, let alone modifying an extraterrestrial species to include arbitrary human divisions.

the problem here is the reason for change in the fluff is due to some PC uprising apparently. people would have issues if they introduced males in the sister of battle just to please the lgbt community, it's not a misoginistic policy, it's a "fluff should not depend on PC outbursts in a grimdark setting" policy.
I don't play vostroyan, so i don't really care about it really, but I'd get pissed if they introduced dwarf or wheelchaired or feeble astartes for the sake of gettin short people, paraplegics and anorexics, engaged in the game.
fluff says astartes candidates are the top of the crop of their generations, and i expect them to be fit. ok you can get hacked in half by a daemon, but that is a combat injury, not a phisical defect of the original ndividual.
BUT if PC outburst can change the fluff, then anything "sacred" could change due to enough people whining, and this is ( i guess) what makes people pissed off: that the decisions stop to be dictated by an attempt to make fluff coherent, and start to be made by the public.
So, where's the evidence of the PC outbursts?

You say this, but it kinda seems like you're still subscribing to the theory that SJWs/Political Correctness had to be the reason behind this.
Also, this guy >>43522214 and others like him keep putting that up as the reason this went down, and there's absolutely nothing that actually backs this up, as if adding women into the First Born is proof enough.
I happen to agree with >>43519962 in that removing restrictions for Roleplaying fans, who may not be as familiar with the Tabletop, and maybe want to play a female First Born.
>>43517196
Wow. I've seen some terrible autism, some terrible bait on this board in my time.
But nothing as sincerely terrible as this.
The angry outburst is entirely fucking made up. A good number of Imperial Guard regiments allow females, or have female regiments. Literally, some fluff writer just put in the word "sons" without giving it too much thought and you're sperging out over it.
Female Guard have been a thing since Ciaphas Cain, and FFG was smart to follow that example.
It's fine if you want to hate women, but ffs, don't invent controversy where there was none. Get the fuck off this board, because you clearly can only lower the collective intelligence here.
>>43518360
Perhaps you have a surplus of children and wish to avoid a dynastic crisis.
Pehaps one of your children is embroiled in a scandal that could destroy the whole family, so you pack them off to join their elder sibling in the Emperor's army
Perhaps you were born with no sons, or had none that survived to adulthood, or those that did are sickly or unwell. So you send off some daughters in the hope of redeeming your failure
>>43522421

This is the only one that's justifiable and even then you're forcing the burden of your failure on others.
>>43522446
So let the role players do this. Its called making interesting characters. The problem is when you go from making something optional to making something mandatory. When the female first borns went from being an interesting angle to explore to, the concept of a male only army having to have female guard as thing because if SJW, its gets in the way and almost cheapens the quirkiness those characters originally had.
>>43522477
>in fact i used the term "apparently"
Despite the fact that it's not apparent? You come off as someone tilting at windmills.
>>43522570
>The problem is when you go from making something optional to making something mandatory
But it's quite literally all in your head. You still can make an all-male regiment of the firstborn, no one's there to stop you

>lets fuck with that
I don't really care because I only field Cadian regiments and they're already like this, but it seems strange to make something that was more traditional than anything else.
>>43522570
exactly.
i'm a huge fan of restrictions and asimmetries in any RPG, because it adds depth. aomthing that we ale losing of more and more these days.
you want to be a samurai? well there are some restrictions, duties and responsibilities. you want to be a templar knight? same. you want to play a priestess of llolth? well i guess you can't really be lawful good mate. you want to be a prince? ok, most of the party members will probably be under your political influence, but maybe it's the warrior in the group that does the fighting, while you stay in the background weaving alliances. limitations and restrictions are tools to encourage deeper characterization. if any character could do anything what would be the point?

This whole thread is a clusterfuck of asspain, sasuga tg! Lets change it a bit
How do you guys think Vostroyan society actually works? With all firstborn sons being sent to die there has to be a deficit of male partners for reproduction which means that in order to keep up with the population number the would either have to have a large sperm bank or a high number of approved teenage pregnancies so the man that is sent to war gets replaced by his progeny while the woman finds another partner to expand the family so the number of males in the planets isnt constantly dwindling. With the population having a constant deficit of males (Because unlike real world armies, the men dont return, ever) the actual societty would probably be highly matriarchal as women are forced to assume positions of power, however in this scenario, how are the second born sons treated? Because the firsborn are most likely held in respect if not outright venerated as martyrs.
>>43522603
it is not apparent meaning:
it is not even apparent
or
it is ths way objectively, not apparently?
>>43522650
You can. You could always do that because it was the fluff of the regiment. All female regiments are not unless you have some exceptional circumstances for it.

Because they don't belong in special fightan' clubs due to their extreme incompetence as well as their unwillingness to function in a group for the greater good. Even the US Rangers, which aren't even a fucking elite unite, only had 3 women who passed their training. Three. Why do you think actual elite units around the globe are men only? Women only serve in regular infantry, and even then mostly in units which are kept away from the actual fighting.
>B-but muh supreme court
That doesn't change that while women want to fight, they don't want to die. I can fucking guarantee you that if even 25% of war casualties are female, feminists will complain about the army being sexist and needing more male canon fodder. For fucks sake, feminists are even complaining about a proportional rise in womens workplace related deaths (and that proportional rise only exists because less men -who are still the grand majority- are dying).

>>43522670
There's a pretty big difference between restrictions that make sense based on the character type you're playing, and restrictions which are imposed completely arbitrarily by GM or designer fiat. For example, there's a good reason why you have to be bound by restrictions, duties, and responsibilities as a samurai - samurai are servitors of a lord, who places those restrictions on them in exchange for some measure of the lord's authority. It wouldn't make sense to force anyone who wanted to play a fighter or a thief to follow the same restrictions, though.
>>43525153
>Nah, I'm pretty sure male disposability doesn't apply to me exclusively.

It may be part of necessity, but this is also why old "patriarchal" systems accomodated for this by guaranteeing certain rights to men. The problem starts arising when a bunch of braindead women start calling themselves equal to men, somehow impose this legislation on men, completely change the cultural outlook of a society to the point where even implying men and women are different will irrepairably ruing your reputation and STILL proceed to ignore the existence of male disposability.
Why do you think you constantly hear women complain about the lack of women in STEM, but literally never hear a feminist say that we need more women in garbage disposal, construction or other dirty, dangerous, potentially lethal, underpaid and thankless jobs? Women make a big deal about the existence of the word "fireMAN" (flashy, prestigious, well paid), but nobody ever complained about "garbageMAN" (filthy, unglamorous, barely pays shit).

Men still earn more money than women, suffer a tiny fraction of the number sexual assaults suffered by women, owned women or were considered legal guardians for women [who can't make decisions for themselves! Right, guise?] in every country on earth until a century ago, and in almost the entire world, women remain victims of discrimination, violence, and oppression to a greater extent than men. But we're disposable because some moronic, entitled "feminist" hates us and some MRA nimrod says we are.

You've proven you're an idiot, a troll, a child, a Republican, or a combination of the four.

>>43525551
Pretty sure there are women who want to be garbagemen - or sanitation workers, as they're caused nowadays. If there weren't, why are they tucking called sanitation workers nowadays, hm?
I also know for a fact that feminists do care about male disposability. I've spoken to women about this, and believe it or not, they're not happy about the idea that they're too delicate and important to risk their lives for someone they deeply care about, or that it's wrong for them to do so.
>>43522810
From what I read is that before every Guardsman is shipped out they throw a massive goodbye party/funeral. The guardsmen are then encouraged to fuck as many females as possible and spread the seed for future Guardsmen.
Nobility probably are probably married off early. The female gets to stay with the new family, and when they're shipped off probably married to the second son/cousin/uncle.
The society on a whole is probably more matriarchal. As women would outnumber the men, and be incharge of keeping traditions alive.
It would make zero sense to send a female out in the battlefield. First of all, men are expendable. One man can impregnate many women, but a woman can only carry one man's children at a time (rare cases two men's).

In times of relative peace, yes. Have you ever heard of a little thing called conscription? I've heard unsubstantiated rumors that that used to be a big thing by the time the suffragettes were active. There was some tiny gang war going on in France at the time, I'm sure you've never heard of it.

I recieved a letter informing me I'm viable for conscription when I turned 17. You are a fucking retard. Conscription is downright non-active in most "civilized" countries (which doesn't include Finland and Israel, I guess!). What the hell do you think happens if the Germans or Russians decide to invade? Do you think we'll only send our professionals to defend the country? Are you fucking stupid?
Good job ignoring the rest of my post and proving exactly why I loathe women and their mangina lickspittles: an unwillingness to even understand men. Men are wrong and evil, women are oppressed little angels that never do anything wrong and if you disagree then you're doubly wrong and evil and probably a nazi too.
>It's not really a problem for modern 1st world people.
You have to love this, a willingness to flipflop between global problems and first world problems depending on their needs. Women in Syria are made into sex slaves so that's a feminist issue, but conscription is no longer active in most of Europe so it's not a mens rights issue.

I'm sure there weren't any women who would want to contribute; they must have all been perfectly content to stay home and be unable to leave the house.
>In the real world, men are twice as likely to be victims of violent crimes than women.
Do you realize that in the Torygraph article you cited, there are citations for types of violent crime where women suffer from more than men do?
Do you realize that men also perpetrate the vast majority of violent crimes?
You're taking the typical libertarian's stance: injustice doesn't matter if it isn't codified. Pretty hideously stupid bedrock principle on which to found a society.
>Have you ever heard of a little thing called conscription?
No; I've been living under a rock.
If you're interested in discussing the modern western world, don't cherrypick (or try to cherrypick; I don't think conscription would really disprove anything anyway).
And stop calling it "The Occident." It's entirely too self-aware for someone discussing the collapse of a society while being, in part, the cause.

Because between 1920 and the present day, there has never been a war in the Balkans. There has also never been a war since 1945 which was intensive enough to warrant conscription for the US army.
Or maybe you're just retarded.
>>43526502
You know what? Fine, I'll warrant you that. In that case, why not add a little clause to conscription laws: all men who are conscripted will freely be able to rape women in both their home nation and any territory that ends up occupied. Nay, they are OBLIGATED to rape and kill at least one woman a week.
Sounds fair, right? I mean, they're never going to be conscripted anyway so it's fine to have a horribly sexist law as long as it's not enforced, right?

Despite this appearing to be the easy way out on first glance, it is actually the hardest way out because -logically speaking- to maintain this position you'd have to refute all of the arguments of both sides completely.
It is the argument of cowards, those too afraid to question and too afraid to change. I can forgive someone who is wrong easier than I can forgive a coward.
why is this shitty thread still up?

Ok seriously, just leave. I don't know if you're drunk, ESL or are just retarded but you need to go right now.

A you retard or blind? Look at the lower right corner of page.

Then go to /pol/ with your bitching where everyone will agree with you, make you feel better, and vindicate your impotent rage. Nobody else cares.
Enough RL militaries allowed and/or even require(d) service from women that there's no reason that an over-the-top Russian caricature military force, in a non-canonical book, in an over-the-top grimderp setting to which the term "canon" can only be applied as losely as possible, can't do the same. If doing so sells extra units, then the company is going to do that, and that's capitalism bitch, deal with it.
>>43517418
And surely you have some proof that it isn't canon. Oh you don't, do you? Then stfu

Not really, to say you disagree with 'both sides' is perfectly valid. Things are often simplified into 'everyone is one side or the other' when in fact it's just a number of small groups vs another number of small groups while a whole load of other group don't take part in the argument but may have varying amounts of interest/investment in the topic being discussed.
To say you find the people at the extreme ends of things disagreeable is the same as saying you find one side or the other disagreeable, it just carries the extra burn that "Honestly I think you're just as shitty as the people you find shitty."
It doesn't assume the middle ground is right, it merely states that the person finds neither side of the debate agreeable, and as such their input is little beyond "Your debate sucks".

40k doesn't HAVE canon guys, not really. It's a giant clusterfuck that doesn't fit when you actually look hard enough. That's what makes it so fun and silly.

That's a false dilemma fallacy. You assume that there is a binary spectrum of positions, and sides can only be to the right or to the left of each other.

With the MRA-Feminist dichotomy here there is a binary spectrum: either women have it worse than men, men have it worse than women or the status quo is perfect.
>>43527383
Not that Anon, but even that's not 100% true. Men gets some things better than ladies, and ladies get other things better than men. You can't easily make that a dichotomy.

Seriously?
OK, example:
Father sees kid playing with other kids. Mothers ask him which kid he is because men having interest in children playing seems perverted.
Wife is expected to perform more work around the house despite also having a full time job.

Brain fart.

Men are in general stronger, while women are in general, more likely to have their problems taken seriously. I dunno, there's way too many possible combos for me to bother listing.
