Well they should have equal rights but its starting to go the other way if you ask me. With "Men have to treat women with respect" and "You can't hit a girl" I don't see how. Women believe those sayings are true but women and feminists are always yelling about how women are equal to men and are just as good as men, so we should be able to hit a girl, treat them as equal to men and they should be drafted into war also. Women want to be equal but want to be treated like women. Its just stupid.

And thats the problem they like to pick and choose the equalities, it should be ether all or none.
I totally agree. In standards of equality, I don't believe it's right to under pay a woman because of her gender. However if she does less work, then that means less pay. The same should go for a man. But if a woman hits a man, what's he supposed to do, NOTHING? I've been in a situation like that, totally unprovoked. Because most women don't realize hitting a man in the testicles in a tense situation doesn't immediately bring him to his knees, it's an evolutionary response to immediatly attack back. But if he does (uncontrollably or not) it's wrong?
I don't ever believe there will be equality. And it's not even in a strickly negative light. Some men put women before themselves (gentlemen?), and others treat women like objects (douches). Some women treat all men like ignorant pigs that want just sex and lack a brain(bitches), and others treat men like they're better (gentlewomen?).
But aside from that, speaking on physical terms. Men and women have different needs. So should that mean different treatment? And don't men and women have different physical muscular constructs. Not that men have muscles that women don't, but isn't it true that the average male is stronger than the average female(it is, I looked it up. But that's only the "average")? It's a fact, women have periods and men don't. And during these periods that women are on their periods (xD) they are to be treated a little more kindly and to be given a little more leaniancy, but men aren't given that once a month.
From birth men and women are treated differently, and even more so throughout childhood to pratically adulthood. When someones little girl is playing at the playground and someone elses little boy goes to play with her, isn't there a little more attention despite the fact that they're children? Even in teenage years, speaking from expierience (I don't know about you), but my parents were proud when I told them I had finally done "it." So long as I told them I had a condom on. But I know for a fact that the girl I had done "it" with would keep it a secret from her parents. And even my little sister, when she turned 15 (the age I lost my virginity) she asked our parents for condoms. Our dad yelled at her for an hour and told her "NO WAY IN HELL" in about 16 different languages and I know it's similar with other families. But why is that? Is it because the woman bares the child? Because if so, isn't the man also to be considered responsible and have to aid in the help of the pregnant individual in question and aid in raising the child (or decision to abort). So shouldn't sex be treated differently?
No matter what (imo) it seems that because we are different at birth, we are different through life. In a perfect world, the "good" guys will always try to be respectful towards everyone despite gender, and the "good" girls will never hit a man in the testicles w/o expecting a c**t punt or tit smack in return. Men and women have different parts, the same ways of doing things, and will always treat each other differently. (Except for crab people, all crab people look alike.)
