there should be gender equality
the government shouldnt do anything to force it though, let the market sort this shit out.

>What is your memeless opinion on gender equality?

Unfortunately not compatible with human nature. A beta male like me would actually profit from real equality. Patriarchy isn't too kind to beta males. But with male and female nature given the way it is, gender equality won't work and trying to impose it will make everything even more worse. And then eventually result in misandry and the oppression of men.
>>
>>25199542
females and males arent equal. nobody is equal, hence why society works. but frankly, that doesnt mean one is 'lower'. the two genders (yes there's two, gtfo tumblr) have different things to offer that cannot be compared fairly. I can respect a female who understands this.
>>
>>25199542
People tend to disagree on how to achieve it.

Feminists are getting ahead of themselves when they assume that there should be a 50/50 distribution in every field. I think the better goal is to just make sure people aren't discriminated unjustly because of their gender. Or that gender roles steer people's choices in an overt way.

Norway's "equality paradox" is probably the realistic end-goal for gender equality. When given total freedom people will chose professions that suit them, which means profession that suit their gender since gender is part of your personality. In china where everyone is poor the women are becoming engineers out of necessity.

If you live in the better parts of the west you can relax and stop thinking about gender equality.

It's only fair. ten years ago, before it stood for other things, I probably would have called myself a feminist.
affirmative-action type shit annoys me a little bit, but I'm willing to put up with it. both me and society have bigger problems, and who knows, maybe it'll work.

women can vary, you can't say they 100% have it easier than every man off the bat. Men vary too, i mean look at us betas vs chad. It's all random, honestly.

This
Nothing is wrong with gender equality. But people fail to realize what gender equality means. It doesn't mean compensating for what a gender lacks by giving more benefits nor does it mean to have some sort of "make up for the past" agenda. It means equality in the sense of having opportunities or in the eyes of law and social order.

On a mental, physical and physiological level however, nobody is equal. But how they are treated in society as citizens, can be.
>>
Its bad. Women are dumber, lazier, and weaker than men. No reason for them to be in the workforce.

this is perfectly correct, one of the rare times where political correctness is actually true

The only people that are probably equal to one another are identical twins. Even then that is only biological. Everything else is horse shit.
>>
The word equality is misleading and invites unecessarry quarreling over petty biological differences. It's not less bad if a woman hits a man, it's bad to hit. It's not more important that women get raped rather than men, it's important that no one gets raped. Once we begin to pick and choose about our ideals it all goes to shit.
>>
>>25199542
It's not possible, thanks to a little scientific fact called "sexual dimorphism".
>>
>>25200211
>this is /r9k/
Yes and so is the reality of most women.
>>
>>25199542
Depends how you define equality. Equality of opportunity and process (I.E. women aren't barred from anything or given special treatment) is fine.
>>
>>25200245
Do you speak to all women on the face of the earth on a regular basis? If not you can't say for certain what each one can offer to the workforce.
>>
>>25200212
Even if both twins have 100% the same dna at birth, they will change during their life due to different environmental impacts. So even twins are not biologically identical.
>>
>>25200261
that's what the actual meaning of gender equality is, but then idiots take it the wrong way and think it literally means all men and women are equal aside from genitallia.
>>
>>25200275
There are peer-reviewed statistics that allow me to say these things. Most women are, not all.
>>
>>25200292
but gender equality is already established in the first world, there is no way of debating over this issue.
>>
>>25200278
Yeah, I know. I went to school with a set of twins and even they who once did everything together have developed individuality. I think one of them is pretty much a failure and the other I know is highly successful.
>>
>>25200293
then you should put that in

you implied you were talking about all women

also where are these stats, I sort of want to see them. No offense but it sounds incorrect and I just want to see where you're getting them.
>>
Well first of physically sexual dimorphism is obviously a thing and you'd have to be retarded to ignore that. As for everything else, people should be judged on their own merits and their gender/sex shouldn't factor into that at all.
>>
>>25200315
Yeah, that's why the argument is so damn stupid. It's idiots who don't know the context of equality in the term that spark bullshit.
>>
>>25200292
By a legal standpoint they should be. The only gray areas are things like abortion, entrapment, things surrounding reproductive rights and the only reason women are usually favored is because they have to physically go through the process of chuldbirth. She will still lose custody if she is a supreme fuck up and the problem lies in the fact that most men fail to prove how much of an idiot their ex really is.
>>
>>25200315
Women aren't allowed to try out for various military positions. They were just allowed to become Navy SEALs in the summer. I'm not saying that they'd pass the standards, but true equality would give them the chance.

and to add it to the context of THIS PLACE specifically, r9k with the fembot issue, I think that we should remember the actual point of this site is complete blank-slate anonimity. We shouldn't really talk about our genders on here technically.

I want to be in the workforce because I want my own income so that I don't need to depend on a piece of shit who thinks he can lord over me and make me miserable and unhappy because I depend on him to live. If I can't live on my terms, I'd rather kill that piece of shit too.

But yeah, that's politics for you though. It's better than it used to be though.

When you are a trailer trash hambeast living with mom and get pregnant, and you want the baby regardless of the father's say in the matter. It should be your right to have sex with someone too genetically fucked up to reproduce with just as it's their right to have sex at all. Reproductive licenses should be awarded with equal opportunity in mind, but not on the premise that just having functional reproductive organs is good enough.

I say let them try, frankly. Even if by biological fact they can't get in, it would still seem like it's fair.

I believe we've made great strides towards true equality and women are basically equal under the law. Unfortunately, modern feminists don't realize that for culture to change we need time. People need to learn how to live in thos new world. They are trying too hard to force social change and it is backfiring and fueling a return to misogyny. I'm normally not one to resort to the whole "shoving values down our throats" meme, but that really is what radical feminists seem tp be doing these days. I realize that its important to raise awareness, but the at the same time they seem to have it out for gamers, nerd, and generally the type of guys that would normally white knight. It just seems contradictory to me that they are attacking, for lack of a better word, "nerd" media, when sexism generally comes from more masculine, aggressive men. They seem to be trying to alienate the only people who might have supported them and understood them.

Would you let a 4'0 apply as a doorman?

a doorman? as in like one of those people who holds doors at a hotel? Sorry if I'm being stupid and that's not what you're talking about. It probably isnt since height doesn't really matter as long as you can reach the handle

Also, let anyone apply but only allow people who actually fit in. most jobs work like that.
>>
>>25200464
That's more practical (ie, time-saving) than it is rational. Because even if statistically, men have more musculature and strength than women and there was a correlation between that advantage and passing the tests, there would still be exceptions that you'd be denying just for the sake of being "rational."
>>
>>25200566
Manlets can apply to be doormen too. Their resumes get laughed at and into the trash they go, but none can deny them their individual right to try. Same goes for everyone including women.
>>
>>25200614
Additionally: You don't want women at the front because they are mentally not fit for the job.

Men and women are not equal. Neither physically, not psychologically. Wanting them to be equal is crazy. Treating them as equals is absurd.

Social equality is wishful thinking and if you fall for it you're getting rused by people who profit from it. Hint: that most likely isn't you.

Russian female plane bombers in WWII didn't have so much trouble bombing the shit out of nazis.

>"Night Witches" is the English translation of Nachthexen, a World War II German nickname for the female military aviators of the 588th Night Bomber Regiment, known later as the 46th "Taman" Guards Night Bomber Aviation Regiment, of the Soviet Air Forces. The regiment was formed by Colonel Marina Raskova and led by Major Yevdokia Bershanskaya.

>The regiment flew harassment bombing and precision bombing missions against the German military from 1942 until the end of the war. At its largest, it had 40 two-person crews. It flew over 23,000 sorties and is said to have dropped 3,000 tons of bombs. It was the most highly decorated female unit in the Soviet Air Force, each pilot having flown over 800 missions by the end of the war and twenty-three having been awarded the Hero of the Soviet Union title. Thirty of its members died in combat.

You were brainwashed by jews to think that white men hate white women. We love you and we have sacrificed our lives for you and our children for thousands of years.

Thinking the threat of some asshole who wants to abuse you is just around the corner is nothing but fiction perpetuated by greedy kikes who want to have a cheap workforce. Broken families without a sense of culture and heritage are also more easily manipulated, and thus more easily made to spend money on whatever useless crap kikes have you believe is "trendy" right now.

Don't fall for jewish schemes and realize who's on your side and who isn't.
>>
>>25199542
Dumb and forced.
If nature intended both genders to be equal then we would've been made with the same capabilities, and by promoting a gender that would otherwise be inferior in order to create "equality" you're just handing out a privilege, thus making things unequal as they will be rewarded more for less effort.
>>
>>25200728
It pisses me off. Like, at least Google an issue before becoming a political 'genius' debating why vaginas and penises are the exact same thing or something along those lines.

Also, give it 10 years or less, 'non binary' and 'gender fluid' gender equality 'issues' will start popping up

>>25200464
The point is that everybody should be given the chance to measure up. There shouldn't be exclusions based on what correlation in studies someone has made. That would be like saying it's impossible to make yourself stronger or impossible to train your mind.
There should be qualifications measured and expectations spelled out so that if they don't make it, they don't make it.
Who knows, maybe most women wouldn't ever measure up, but now they can't say they didn't get to try.

People don't realize how much having the chance to do something means. It means more than being successful.

Wow, you need a road map for this post.

Women should not, I repeat, SHOULD NOT have equal chances in the workforce. Women are the bottleneck of human growth. If women don't bear children, then there won't be any. Women are to be valued and protected, otherwise the tribe (or nation) dies from lack of offspring.

Wanting women to work jobs 40h a week is absolutely crazy and directly results in birthrates that are too low to sustain a population. It's the reason why governments panic and import millions of shitskins thinking this will save the broken work policies of their nations, but even immigrants have been observed to adapt their birth rates to the native population.

It's because the core policies surrounding women, work and family are BROKEN and must be overhauled completely.
>>
>>25200743
We're talking about individuals here. It is unfair, unjust and discriminatory (not to mention utterly stupid since it's waste of talent and resources) to deny those women who fit the requirements the right to pursue their job simply because people who are not them don't. One is responsible for herself, not for what people unrelated to her do or how people unrelated to her are.
>>
>>25200813
What exactly did you not understand? Or are you just trying to discredit what I've said because it doesn't fit your world view? How many shekels do you receive for your internet activism?
>>
>>25200816
Birth rates become low when the ratio of quality of breeding stock vs the total population is too distant. Not because women took our jerbs. If there weren't so many goddamn people looking to support themselves or simply validate their existence, we wouldn't have this problem. It's still more of a threat that jobs are being lost to technology.

It doesn't matter. Not all those "statistical" rarities will be adamant on joining the field, they might even be discouraged. Why lose an increase in potential assets because of a generalization?
Generalizations aren't even correct nor any logical way to proceed on anything. You're essentially promoting ignorance and loss, while claiming that men have the sole responsibility to make up for it. You're putting more pressure on men and aiding the feminist agenda by taking away their right to the same responsibilities. Women live in this country, make them fight for it.

Thing to keep in mind: one of the best predictors of high birth rates are high infant death rates. Also there was a lot more incentive to make babies when everyone was a family farmer; even the higher birth rates at the beginning of the 20th century were low by historical standards.

>>25200816
Are you trying to say women shouldn't work and a man should take care of them or that we should force women into positions where it's either they are near homeless or are someone's fucktoy?

Do people think before they post things like "_____ should not have equal chances in ___ _____" because if you want to raise healthy children, you do it with both parents well educated, with workplace experience.
The last thing you want is to raise a child with a woman who just sits on her ass. Why breed in a genetic lottery of "hope he gets the fathers genes" when both could be perfecting themselves body and mind to pass it along?
>>
Two poor, hopelessly retarded people more often tha not, start out NOT wanting to procreate beyond their means and end up doing it out of desperation for love, helplessness, unimpeded biological need and sometimes they really just do it for the benefits. Impoverished people shouldn't be given incentives to keep milking the welfare tit by expanding a family. Those designated to breed, as surrogate parents of the state, is a step in the direction we should head. But no one here takes this seriously enough to admit that it all ties together, that the root of the problem lies with those who prey on the poor/immigrants/unwitting expectant mothers who were told all their lives that they are doing the right thing no matter who they are.

> for thousands of years.
For thousands of years most women worked (outside of home). In tribal hunter-gatherer societies women did most of gathering. In agricultural societies peasant women worked in fields. Female slaves worked (at homes and plantations too). Female children slaves worked. During industrial revolution women and girls worked in factories, even in mines. Only aristocratic and upper middle class women didn't work.

Statistical likelihoods aren't stupid or useless. They just shouldn't be treated as gospel.
>>
>>25201013
Women have, for thousands of years, been nurses, educators, artists and craftspeople of various sorts (sewing, stitching, decorating, painting, ...). This type of work still brings joy to them.

Women are fragile and delicate creatures. Giving them equal opportunities as men is CRAZY. Allowing them to work in hard manual labor is CRAZY. Allowing them to the front lines in war is CRAZY. Pretending they can shoulder the same weight as men is CRAZY.

Women and men are different from each other. They can perfect themselves in their specific roles which are dictated by their natural purpose, which they have evolved for. This whole "reverse gender roles and fuck traditions xD"-meme started with disgusting hippies who smoked too much weed and listened to communist music.

>>25200987

All Western nations are at their core free market economies. People offer their labor for a fee. People sell their goods for a fee. There is no commissar telling you to work for the glory of the country and there is no bureau dictating your company to produce only 1000 cars per month.

I agree that most European countries, including my own, have replaced some freedoms with government intervention, and we are approaching the command economy with our hardon for social justice and wealth distribution.

Why do you think this? A very large amount of men's money get's moved to the hands of women through relationships and women will likely receive more financial support from parents and relatives than men. In our economy the majority of consumer goods are already sold to women despite men earning the majority of the income, and men also make up the majority of homeless. I don't think women would be "screwed" without quotas, they'd just be shoved to a more even playing field.

Hierarchy in general is a negative way to organize. It reduces cooperation and creates power structures that perpetuate themselves, reinforcing the power of those on top over those on bottom. This manifests itself in a number of ways: politically, economically, socially, and so on. I'm not sure why you think things work so well, given what a shitfest history actually is.

>And should people change to some arbitrary societal fantasy even though it shows no signs of improvement in the long term?
Actually, there are a number of benefits to switching from hierarchical organization to horizontal, democratic organization. 1) An increased level of cooperation and participation from members of society. 2) Social benefits that reduce antisocial behavior (i.e., less poverty, racism, and so on). 3) Ecological benefits that have not been implemented solely due to economic hierarchy and exploitation. There are of course other benefits, but I don't want to ramble on and on.

You better should, then.

We have just recently started to search for exoplanets. Up until 1995 nobody really knew whether there were any exoplanets outside of our solar system.

This is from December 17, 2015.

http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/219708-closest-habitable-planet-may-be-just-14-light-years-away-but-dont-pack-your-suitcase-just-yet

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_1061c

Wolf 1061c is the closest exoplanet within the habitable zone around its star that we have found yet. And it's only 14 light years away.

Recent statistical projections have shown that there might be up to 40 billion habitable exoplanets just in our milky way. Now, if there was one that was, say 1-2 light years away: we could definitely get there, it would take us a while depending on our propulsion technology, but even if it would take a few generations, it's possible. And we're only just starting to find more exoplanets that lie in the habitable zone around Earth, so the future looks bright.

Men do all this shit too. And the men who do enjoy it. Christ man what are you smoking? The most ignorant thing you could do is separate things based on gender. Sure you wouldn't let a pregnant woman work on construction, but a woman isn't pregnant 7 days a week from 9 to 5. They have hands and legs capable of being trained, as well as minds.

People are people reguardless of gender. Their skills and talents are not related to the gender, just how much they practice their skills. Dominance and submission does not apply to the gender, but the human.

With that said, both nature (men having the 'spear', women the 'shield') and society have shifted general opinion on what one thinks before evaluating their real skills. Anyone that still thinks gender, race, or sexual orientation matter have been beaten by society's template.

Which is wrong and irresponsible. But our current policies are the very result of a feminized society. A society in which females have the same voice as men and want to do the same work despite being unfit to do so.

Females worry for their safety because this ensures the survival of their offspring. Men worry about their freedom because it gives them new ways to provide for their families. But freedom and safety (control) are incompatible, and the need for safety stems from a fear of risks. You cannot, however, eliminate all risks and expect to make progress.

All progress is built on sacrifice, which is what men do for their children and their wives.

No, you have a wife and kid because you want shekels but feel the need to displace that sense of personal greed with a seemingly innocent, moral decision to have a family. Which ironically doesn't help anyone in the long run, not even the people involved. Now you just have kids with the same empty sense of purposelessness that they eventually might try to cope with by having babies, or doing drugs. Either way having a family is not this noble thing and it never was, when people had kids just to be cheap labor on the farm.

Although there are obvious biological differences between men and women, none of them inhibit either gender from performing tasks generally believed to be most suited for the opposite gender. There are also exceptions to biological rules, like women who are born unusually tall, or men born unusually short and frail. So gender itself shouldn't be a consideration in one's ability to perform a task.

Now, if you want to say women should have to meet the same physical requirements as men in order to serve in the military or compete in sports, I see nothing wrong with that. There's nothing stopping women from getting into bodybuilding. It just doesn't make sense to say, "You're a woman, therefore you're automatically barred from doing this." Even if she's 6'1" and 200 lbs.? A woman like that could likely bench-press me.

As far as social / gender roles go, that's all subjective bullshit. If you want to be a stat-at-home father while your wife is out fighting terrorists overseas, go for it. It doesn't matter what the rest of society thinks.

As for MRAs and radfems, they're all full of shit. When you assemble a group of people who all identify with the same cause, they tend to lean toward a sectarian mindset, constantly pitying themselves to the point that they hate everyone and everything outside of their insular group. Men and women both deal with some unfair shit, but blaming each other isn't going to accomplish anything. It's just going to further the gender divide that keeps proliferating the problem in the first place.

>No, you have a wife and kid because you want shekels but feel the need to displace that sense of personal greed with a seemingly innocent, moral decision to have a family.
What? Not everybody is as depressed as you. I want a wife and children because I believe it is my purpose as a living creature.

The only purpose of life is to survive and procreate. This can be observed in all living creatures forever. There cannot be purpose without life, so I must ensure that life continues. And I would love to see my children grow and become strong.

Obviously you are right when you say "hurr at some point we're all dead anyways so nothing we do has any purpose in the long run". But I just don't care.

They are not worthless to me, since my life is my only concern and it's certainly more valuable to me than yours or anyone else's, therefore no one is allowed to make it shittier for me by attempting to silence me. Also,

>Your wishes are entirely subjective and unless you argue objectively they are worthless

You are not arguing objectively yourself, you are deluding yourself you do. You are arguing for what you subjectively feel would be a better society, when in reality there's no objectivity to society since the individuals who make it subjectively judge according to how they perceive it and how it benefits their interests. So while you subjectively say this and that shit would be better, others disagree and their opinion is just as valuable as yours, unless you want to establish a dictatorship where the mind of those who disagree with you does not matter. Spare me the sensationalist cherrypicking, since cancer/diabetes treatment, which you agreed to being shit, encompasses people of all ages and gender.

Equality is the wrong way to think about it. Nature has made males and females different because they have different roles to fill. Instead of equality, we should try to maximize freedom and fulfillment for both sexes.

For women, the issue shouldn't be trying to get them to become men (working outside the home, not having children, having insane amounts of sexual partners). Instead we should be promoting healthy monogamous relationships and child-rearing as acceptable and desirable. Does that mean women shouldn't have careers? No, they should be free to do so, but should recognize that they will most likely be happiest in a loving marriage raising children.

Men should be taught to be good fathers and husbands, and should be able to provide for a family on a single paycheck. They also need safe spaces from women, ie the garage or bar where they can interact with other men without women their to distract them.

They are worthless for any rational discussion. Back your opinion up with facts or it will be discarded, because having an opinion is not usually seen as a compelling argument for anything.
Also, please stop with this "there is no such thing as TRULY objective discussion" meme. The point is to approach objectivity by providing rational arguments, which are either concrete observations or theoretical insights into how things might play out regardless of your feelings towards them.

>since cancer/diabetes treatment, which you agreed to being shit
You still haven't shown me where I said that. You're making things up to fit your point of view. Are you confusing me with somebody else? It's hard to keep track of who wrote what in an anonymous discussion, but I have not said that cancer/diabetes treatment is shit. Point out the post in which I have.

>You're making women happy by ridding the world of your existence. Just sayin'.
I would make one woman especially unhappy, and that is more than enough reason for me to not do it.

Birth control is optional even for people with genetic predispositions to costly illnesses. Again, reproduction should be licensed, not a right. With periodic re-evaluation just like driving.

I dont even know what femenist mean when they talk about equality anymore? In what aspects are we not equal? If anything men get fucked over when it comes to the "system". Men get on average, Longer prison sentences, child support and alimony, they aren't forced into the selective service system. We are also more likely to commit suicide.

As far as the pay gap goes, I agree that there should an equal pay for equal work law (everything else equal), but the gap as a whole is misleading.

Its always the question of "where do we go from here". Of course things could be better when it comes to equality among genders but I don't anything that glaringly obvious anymore.

I'm a woman and drawing my stories/creating my own videogames is what makes me happiest. Raising children takes time and resources away from that, so it makes me miserable, not happy. That's why I have made it clear to my bf he is not to bother me too much, he is to respect my spaces and things and interests and give me ample time and freedom for myself, and he is also to take active part in the rearing of any eventual children since I want to keep my own time, money and resources for me.

>Working outside the home
Working inside the home ha too limited options and doesn't let me earn as much as I want. Any man who attempts to stop me from doing the job I want deserves scorn, contempt, rejection and death if he gets dangerous.

>should be able to provide for a family on a single paycheck

I still want my own money. And I want my own safe spaces from men too, where I can interact with other women without men there to bitch about it.

If you don't want to argue, then stop arguing.

>to someone who basically thinks the meaning of life is "Sex makes babies, women should have sex so I might have babies with them."
That's a strawman. The purpose of life, as is observable for every other living creature that we know of, it survival and procreation. This is the one basic fact which we can observe and confirm in ALL living creatures. It is the basis of life and therefore the foundation for any discussion about purpose as well. You cannot have purpose without life, and if you deny that survival and reproduction are (at least part of) the purpose of life, then you are delusional.

>>25202668
>If you believe that entropy is a difficult concept and that it doesn't apply universally then I am sorry for you.
I understand entropy. But your way of thinking goes as follows:
>I have a vague idea of what entropy is
>I have observed it on Earth, therefore I believe entropy exists
>it probably applies universally [which you don't really know for sure]
>therefore the universe will end in a cold death [which is just a model of what might happen in billions of years according to our (less than perfect) models of reality which have been created with limited knowledge of our universe and the underlying physical principles]
It's not really that convincing after all, and the effects are so far away that I really don't think it constitutes any sort of argument for how to live and behave today.

>>25202932
It is as close to a purpose as anyone can objectively argue. Whatever else you define as the "purpose of life" is a self-defined brass ring to jump through and is inherently meaningless beyond the little fantasy world you've created in your mind. And it will never make you truly happy once you're aware of this fact.

Pic related sums it up for me.

If there's a retarded child he should get support and special treatment. That's fair because he needs help and can't do anything about being retarded. But that's not equal.

You lost any attempt at rationality when you implied medical progress to be shit: >>25202189

>Back your opinion up with facts
You provided no facts for your opinions yourself, only assumptions. Show me the fact that proves current policies are what you believe they are and not your own distortion of reality. Show me the fact that proves because women have a voice too, current policies are what you believe they are, and the reason (presuming your belief is not false) is not another instead. You have provided none of these things. I can back up my opinion with this fact: denying people their voices makes those people's circumstances worse, not better, therefore your attempts at totalitarian utopias are likely to make the world worse, not better for them.
>>
>>25203026
So the strong shouldn't support the weak when they need help because then the outcome would be equal and theirfore injust?

>>25202984
Yea I wouldn't go near that one with a stolen dick. How do you literally get lost on the way to tumblr.

The whole point of equality by law and societal order is that gender becomes irrelevant unless it's a special circumstance.

equality of outcome isn't just, though. the weak people don't deserve a leg up, they should fix their own shit.

That's fucking retarded because they wouldn't need boxes if they paid for tickets just like if you're too retarded to abort a retard then your stupid ass should be on the hook for taking care of it.

>>25202992
That pic is absolutely retarded though. They slit equality into two different things. In one they get the same number of boxes. But they aren't in it for the boxes they want to watch baseball which one of them can't. That isn't really equal. While on the other neither of them can really care about who gets how many boxes so long as they can watch some baseball. THAT is equal. If they were in it for the boxes then yes you give them the same amount of boxes but they aren't.

Yes equality doesn't really mean justice it just means treat everyone the same and don't be a dick. Unless they are being a dick to you first.
>>
>>25203079
That's a false equivalency. "Justice" CAN mean "equality of outcome", but they are not generally the same thing. Sometimes you can achieve justice by enforcing equality of outcome, but not all forms of justice are just that.

If a weak person without stamina REALLY wants to join the Special Forces, should you give him special treatment or lower entry standards just because he "needs help" and "should be supported"?

The facts are:
>not everybody is equal
>not everybody can be or do whatever they want
>it is not injust to prevent people from doing jobs that they are unfit to do
>>
>>25203215
>it is not injust to prevent people from doing jobs that they are unfit to do

It is just to make sure all jobs are done as well as possible in lieu of favoring individual need. If individual need exceeds the demand for these jobs, more attention should be paid to eliminating the source of the problem, which is a surplus of individuals with no purpose (other than to reproduce of course)
>>
>>25199542
In some areas we have ways to go on making men and women equal, both sides will need to concede some things. But the ultimate goal of true equality is just not possible, we are in fact different from each other and two different things can never truly be equal.

By your logic everyone should get the same payment. That would be equal but unfair because some work harder than others. (not saying everyone gets the money he deserves, but theoretically)

Look at it like this. The boxes are the law/what the goverment provided. Being able to see over the fence means being able to lead a good life.

>Are you denying raising children takes away a shitton of time?
I haven't denied this at all. I believe that females have evolved to love their children, otherwise they just wouldn't have any and they would die and humans would have gone extinct.

So, since you've avoided my question, here it is again:
>Have you ever raised your own children?
This one is important because it tells me whether you know what you're talking about.

>>25203042
>nothing inspires you besides the prospect of one day doing what invertebrates can do.
Why do you pretend to know what inspires me? I see there is no use in arguing with you. You don't address the point at hand and you use condescending language and strawman-tactics to avoid real discussion. It's weak and I don't have time for this.

>>25203075
1. it was another anon making the post that I quoted in the one you linked (which was in fact mine)
2. medical progress does not equal cancer/diabetes treatment. Since he talked about wasting time with it, I figured he was talking about the treatment itself being wasted on old people who should just embrace their deaths and stop clinging onto life. Granted, that's not what he said, but it was what came to my mind once I read his post.

To clear up my position: I believe medical progress (or any form of finding new knowledge) to be beneficial. But I don't believe in using this knowledge on whoever we possibly can, because sometimes the investment does not justify the result. I don't support cancer treatment for old people (let's say 80 years old, just to have a rough cut-off criterion), because I believe it is ultimately a waste of time and resources.

>Show me the fact that proves current policies are what you believe they are and not your own distortion of reality.
I'm on my laptop and I'm at my parents' place because it's Christmas. I don't have my info folders here. If you're actually interested, I could send them per Email when I'm back home again (Dec 28). Sounds fishy I know

>all that presuming bullshit about women

When I got married at 24, I knew that I didn't want children. My husband once said that if he ever had to choose between mother and child, he would save the child. And I thought, "No way! My life is more important." I never really felt that maternal actually. He may have thought that we might have children but when I made it clear that I didn't want them, he didn't try to persuade me otherwise.

For me there has always been an issue of economic independence because my father left us when I was young. We had a nice house but afterwards we were really quite poor. We moved to a smaller house and my mother had to take a factory job. I vowed therefore that I would never be economically dependent on a man and I never have been. When I grew up, there was no way I could combine study or work with having a child - it seemed a wholly impractical thing to do. It was either a career or family - that was the position for me 35 or 40 years ago. Physically I didn't want to be pregnant either. It changes your body and I wasn't prepared to have that happen.

I have no regrets. Someone said to me once, "In your old age you'll want children to look after you." And I thought, "Why should I place that responsibility on children? It's not fair." I'm now in my 60s and I'm just about to get married again - but of course there will be no expectations of having children!

>>25203525
It is, and I explained why. You on the other hand keep refusing to address the point and resort to memeposting.

Maybe I should rephrase the point so you're reminded of what it actually was:
>you think there is a purpose of some kind in human life
>you think it is to maximize pleasure (hedonism)
>I argued that this is objectively wrong and the purpose is to a) survive and b) procreate
>I explained my reasoning for this by pointing at nature and the observations we can make from every single living creature that we know of
So now you explain to me how hedonism is the purpose of life.
>>
>>25203501

It's equal outcome, shitlord. Equal work is sojinist.
