So this thread is going to be me posting all my rather less that politically correct ideas and thoughts on all steps of life. Politics, religion, social structure and such.
I know a lot of you are not going to agree with me. I also know that some of you will get angry.
And I'm fine with that. Maybe it will start some good debates around here. Enough blabber, on with the show. ------ Women.
I'm sick of nearly every women I meet and interact with pulling the gender card. Acting like that because of them being a women, the are entitled to behaving certain ways, saying certain things. Based purely off of the fact that they are a women. Nothing more, nothing less.
Examples? Of course I have them. -1) At work, the shift changes and my relief comes. On one of them is a girl roughly my same age. Part of the job requires you to empty a mop bucket and change the water. Mop bucket holds only 4 gallons of water. She looks at me and says "Can you empty the bucket for me? It's too heavy for me." I ask her why it's too heavy since it is only four gallons of water. To which she replies "Well, I am a girl you know. Teehee." -2) Countless times I have women talk to me about something or another. During the conversation which they initiated, I put in my view and thoughts. They snap at me and go "Oh shut up. You're a guy. You wouldn't know about it." -3) Too many times I'll be talking with a current/past significant other about something important. Once again, I get the "You are a guy, your emotions are different. Illogical."
And so on and so on.
I'm sick of tired using their gender to their advantage or to stonewall conversations.
You want to be equal to men? Want the same amount of pay? Same levels of respect? Same everything?
Then -stop- using your gender as a disadvantage, dammit. If you can't do the same amount of work as your male counterparts then you should be payed less. If you always use your 'feminine feelings' as a fail-safe in any argument, then you should not get the same level of respect amongst your peers.
Suck it up or go home.
Now, do not think I'm all "Women are inferior and deserve less!" I'm far from it. I truly do think that men and women deserve the same rate of pay, respect and so on. Gender has no place in deciding such things. Yet if a women uses her gender as an excuse or weakness then no, you do not deserve the all of what you earned.
What would happen if a man did that? If he slacked on the job for no excusable reason? Used his gender to let him slide by? He'd get fired, sued, slapped around.
So the point of this all is such: Women expect the same everything as men, which I agree with. Yet they then use their gender as an excuse to be treated differently. If you want to be seen as weak and incapable then expect to be treated as such. -----
I even deliberately left points open for debate. There.
I think some punishments could be much harsher, but jail works just fine for now for most crimes.
I agree, some should be harsher. Or, having the punishment actually fit the crime. I'm angry when I see someone walk away from jail when they've murdered or r@ped someone, it's just wrong. But for the most part, they do their job pretty well.
When someone wrongs me, I don't seek to get back at them by hurting them as bad as they hurt me, rather, I find a way to make them feel bad for what they did... It works pretty well most of the time.
If people just got revenge for every crime that was committed there would be murder and fighting and looting in the streets, but all in the name of revenge and personal justice.
Yes, for a bit. So the weak and slow and stupid and worthless die. That is considering that in current day life we introduced it.
Which won't happen short of anarchy due to the collapse of government as we know it (Which very well might happen).
Yet if we kept on going from the same justice systems back during the Roman times and Middle Ages, it would just be the norm.
