I read a news article (written by a woman) stating that men are not equal to men. So the question is what do you all think. Are women equal to men?

My thought is no. There are a whole lot of things that women can do that men can’t. Comparing women to men are like comparing apples and oranges. So who started the war of the sexes any way?

    Needs more context. Equal in terms of what? Physically, men are on average stronger and faster. But that isn't necessarily the case in other areas. I know several women who are brilliant.

    No way. They need to know their place, wear their burqas and keep quiet.

    In what regards? Men, on average, are physically stronger than women. Women have the ability to grow another human being inside their body.

    Men are better than women at some things, just as women are better than men at others. I think it's very difficult to quantify the abilities that men have over women and vice versa.

    No, I don't think the sexes are equal. But like you said its comparing apples to oranges. Neither is "better" per se; we're just different.

    Burqaus are very attractive on a woman. Imaginations run wild when looking at a woman in a burqua.Burqaus are very atractive

    I am not qualified to answer such questions, let me go ask the man of the house.
    Seriously though, there is no one person completely equal to another, and gender doesn't have a whole lot to do with that.

    I prefer that women have the babies. I don’t think I could man up to that kind of pain.

    I don't think you can push a watermelon through a garden hose either.

    It depends. Women are way better at stuff like cleaning, mopping, laundry, serving coffee...

    was this article in Fox News, as I know there was one on their website around this subject? If so, it's nonsense. Fox News is the last place people should get their information.

    The question could also be; Are men equal to women?


    Anyway,I believe we're the same but we're so different at the same time!

    I believe that both sexes should be treated equally because both are humans.
