Why Men And Women Are Not Equal

Read Time:3 Minute, 6 Second

It’s quite true you know. Men and women are not equal and never will be. Whilst equality in the workplace and so forth is fine and dandy – and I admit to a genuine bemusement why women are still, in the 21st Century, often paid less than their male counterparts – it is equally true that men and women can never be truly and totally and completely equal.

523245015_jf09_men_rights1

The reason is, of course, quite obvious. We are physically different and, given the physical difference, there must always be a difference that results in a lack of complete equality.

Male footballers will always beat a team of female footballers. Male athletes running the 100 metres will always run faster than a female. Male tennis players would always beat a female tennis player.

This is not to say that female athletes are not incredibly fit and talented – of course they are – but the genetic make up of humanity means that athletic men will always beat athletic women. (Note I said ‘athletic men’ as I wouldn’t for one moment be suggesting I could beat a Williams sister at tennis)

Of course excuses are made for women tennis players earning less than men. Men play longer games and more sets due to the physical differences and you can’t argue with that fact. Mind you, if ‘entertainment value’ was ‘in the mix’ I reckon the women should earn more than the men.

After all, who would you rather watch? Federer or Nidal grunting their testosterone around the court for four sets or Sharipova or Amanda Hesse in little white skirts? I rest my case 🙂

There is, however, one undeniable reason why men and women are not and can never be equal.

Money or, to be more accurate, the spending of money.

I can say, from personal experience, that if I spend £20 in the pub having a few beers with my pals I will be chastised by a wife who, the previous day, spent £100 on clothes and / or shoes she didn’t need.

I can spend £10 on a box of 15 bottles of Budweiser and be told that I should drink less and therefore spend less followed by ‘can you transfer £500 to our daughters account’.

I can spend £65 to go and watch England play at Wembley and be told “What a waste of money!” (I have to admit, the way they played, it possibly was) and yet if I question the spending of £40 on a palm tree for the garden (excuse me but do we live in bloody Barbados??) I am quibbling over a small sum.

When I point out that the addition of two Wisteria, three new large plant pots, two garden ornaments and a ludicrously expensive solar light shaped like the sun made it £200 at the garden centre against my £10 for a case of Budweiser I’m told I’m being pedantic.

Me??? Pedantic????

So you see. Men and women can never ever ever be equal. Someone might invent some legal drug that makes female athletes able to compete on a par with male athletes.

Companies might finally start paying women equally with their male counterparts (don’t hold your breath eh?)

Mankind might finally start to truly value women and realise that, in so many ways, they are not equal to men because, frankly, they are often better.

It is, ultimately, of no consequence what so ever.

When it comes to the spending of money women are so far ahead of men in ability to not only spend it but to justify the unjustifiable that men really should learn that they might as well just give it up.

Me? I gave up years ago 🙂

Some women have worked diligently to emasculate men for 50 years. I watched it happen before my very eyes.

You’re pathetic! A real compromising worm. As regards female tennis players getting equal pay to men, it’s a bad joke. Remember Djokovic’s comments about that matter? He was the only male player as far as I am aware that had the guts to tell it like it is. He reckoned it wasn’t right…and so do I. It’s a scam!! Male players deserve more due to their ability, effort expended and therefore, entertainment value. FACT!

The female players are 2nd rate by comparison.

The truth hurts.

It is the women of today that have really changed from the old days when they were really so much nicer and easier to meet back then. Today most women are just so very horrible with a their rotten personalities and absolutely no manners at all either now. God forbid for many of us men trying just to start a normal conversation with a woman that we would really like to meet has now become so very dangerous for us these days. They will usually Curse at us for no reason at all when we will just say good morning or hello to these very pathetic losers which i can see how very mentally ill that most women are nowadays. And for the women that have their careers now really think they really are all that which they really are just a real joke altogether too since their just so very nasty too. No wonder why so many of us single good men can’t meet a decent normal woman anymore today.

Oh Keeryst here we go again with us having to gang up on your ass. Bud… really Norman, you have got to give up that damn Bud drinking habit. shit is like drinking piss water after it has been boiled to take the nutrients out of it.

*exercises hands now for the piano playing to be done* WTF is this bullshit about us not being equals. Know why, I’ll tell you, but you knew that coz I am me and that’s what I do 😉 As women we have to work twice as hard, do twice as much and live with outright fuckin discrimination being women with lady bits to be taken seriously, as you that have the dicks, so we are not only your equals, in some areas we are better than you are just for the shit we have to put up with on a daily basis. God help you if you are a woman of color, a transwoman it’s even fuckin worse Norman. so as some English dude in a show I saw recently said, jog on my boy jog on. Far as spending money, if I make it I will spend it. Right now I have way more of my own money than my husband will ever see and he makes six figures as an attorney, so I have every single right to spend what I spend without aggravation from my other half. the end 🙂

Homer drinks Duff I drink Bud.

I also drink real ale and beer from micro breweries.

Bud is glorious over here but it is brewed over here so maybe a slightly different recipe? Who knows.

Maybe my taste buds died years ago through hot curry abuse 😉

Cat litter squeezings filtered through a goat with that rusty plumbing aftertaste.

And the English make such good beer!

Wait, wait, just a minute — OK men and women are different, fine, no problem, but Budweiser? You live in England and you drink Budweiser? You know it’s made by pressing cat litter, don’t you?

He has been told about Budweiser by just about every one of our regular folk Glenn, but he seems to love Bud more than most Americans. What an absolutely shitty beer it is 🙂
