I think we are made different but in every way equal to express ourselves, be responsible be educated and so forth. For me- per the bible-- Genesis 1:26-28
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, etc etc..
Them is us --as according to scripture, EVE-was not in the picture yet. the rib thing came shortly after-
OK so that is a faith thing- My experience-I run circles around most males... I have always felt equal as well- nobody told me different- PS -mom of 3 gma of 6-- love my lipstick and lots of shoes- so all fem here

Duh?

And let me remind you that there are billions of women in the world....

I know from reading the exercise forum that Chicago South Sider, like many men who lift weights seriously for years, can bench press over 300 pounds. So by that measure there are probably not more than a couple dozen women in the world stronger than him.

Men and women simply have different strengths and weaknesses. We're the result of 100s thousands of years of evolution and the modern feminist tendency to deny that there are real differences seems silly and can cause unhappiness when people are made to behave in a way that's not natural to them. For example, the education system that penalizes boys for not being able to sit still in school: https://www.theatlantic.com/sexes/ar...school/276976/.

Samuel Colt made women equal.
