Do you believe that males and females are really equal or is one gender clearly superior to the other and why. I mean in all creatures, not just humans. I do not mean that one gender is good at certain things, but in an overall way.

• You just said that you didn't think one was better than the other. Did I change your mind? Don't get me wrong. I like guys. I just get pissed off when some egotistical guy treats me like I am lower that him. I feel like telling him we could put him in his place if we really wanted to. I sometimes picture going to the grocery store and looking up on the wall and seeing the pictures in the back for the meat sections. I see a silhouette of a chicken. I look a little farther and see the silhouette of a cow, then a pig, then a side view of a figure with a prominent protrusion about midway. lol We would keep a few around for reproductive purposes, of course. We would need bigger shopping carts, though.

• Yikes. I wish that I could argue but you even convinced me. I just hope you don't run for president! I have a feeling you would get a lot of the women's votes and that is kinda scary for us guys.

• I look at it like this: I consider myself clearly superior to chickens and pigs and cows, but not to a lion. I would not be in control of the lion, but I would be in control with the animals that I use for food. If you are honest, we are really in control of our guys because we have something that they want, and they will do about anything to get it. That gives us the true control.But when you consider that many female animals eat the males, that makes the relationship the same as my relationship to a chicken(well, not exactly,but close). To a female mantis, males are just another kind of meat.

• Interesting, funny but flawed. I'll point out the flaws in a series of comments as I can't seem to post more than a hundred or two words at a time. Your arguments;
  
  1 A small number of males are more capable of keeping the species going than an equal number of females. Well, it takes more young, fertile females than elderly or infertile females to keep the species going. So girls of 16 would be superior to elderly women and women who can't have children.

• 2 The 'meat' one makes man-eating bears/leopards intrinsically superior to the humans they eat.
  
  3 The 'supporting role'. Some species have females in apparently dominant roles, but some also have males as dominant.
  
  4 'we are really in control of our guys because we have something that they want, and they will do about anything to get it'. Presumably that's not serious...if indeed any of it was

• Good answer in general. Be interesting to know where you found the source for your claim women ae more intelligent though. And I think it was about males and females in general, not just men and women.

• Mental may not have to do with book smarts, it could mean common sense. My sources are through interaction with people of both genders. Sometimes it is great to look beyond what you see in an answer. Maybe you should not be such a dick about it. Maybe you should read the entire answer.

• I thought males and females were men and women. A lot of comments on this site would have to be generalized unleast you actually know the percentages.

• Tasha4, I did not set out to 'be such a dick' as you put it or to offend you. I did read your entire answer (which was a very good one) and I simply mentioned one or two points which appeared debatable. The 'mental strength' was simply a matter of more than one possible meaning, and I happenedc to take the wrong one (and it seemed at first reading to be presented as fact rather than opinion) As for the other point, it was the simple truth - it was about males and females in general, not men and women. Considering you are so quick to tell me to 'read the entire answer' (which I did), perhaps you too should have read the entire question. Remember, I did say it was a good answer!
