    I think Feminism is unnatural. Humans are animals, and like all other animals, males are the dominant species. I just think its natural for the man to be the house holder, the worker, the provider, and for the woman to take care of the home. I dont mean to sound old fashioned or sexist, but i think there is something very natural and beautiful about a man having dominance over and protecting a woman. Elevating onesself to the point where they are the exact same-have the same roles as men-is unnatural. I believe it is just another "bi-product" of human consciouness/human ego.

    Look carefully and you will see the male
    anglerfish attached to the back of the female.

    "Another unusual adaptation in anglerfish is their sexual dimorphism. The males are very small in comparison with the females, and live as permanent parasites on the female. The male attaches himself, by biting, to the body of the female. His mouth fuses with her skin, and the bloodstreams of the two fishes become connected. The male is now totally dependent on the female for nourishment. In fact, the male begins to degenerate. His eyes grow smaller and he eventually loses them. His internal organs disappear.The male becomes simply a source of sperm."

    "Reproduction
    After reaching sexual maturity, a male abandons his home web in search of a female. Arriving at a female’s web, he vibrates his abdomen, sending signals through the web. When he is satisfied that she won’t attack, the male slowly moves towards her. Then, he spins a thin layer of silk around her. If she remains still, he mates with her. After he is finished, he drops out of her web. Contrary to popular belief (and how these spiders were named), the female black widow does not always kill the male after mating. The female only kills the male if she is hungry or he makes an abrupt movement while in her web."

    "The male emperor penguin is entirely responsible for incubating his mate's precious egg over the long Antarctic winter. He does this inland, while the female returns to the sea to feed. His success depends entirely on his fat stores; if a male gets too thin, he will abandon his egg and try to get back to the ocean. Big fat males are consequently creatures of great worth and females have been observed fighting over them. Once the egg hatches, the male produces milk from gland in his esophagus to feed his chick."

    Key phrase "all other animals". Never make assumptions or generalities.

    it doesnt change the facts of nature. These animals do this out of instinct, humans use reason and conciousness; its not the same.

    Its not a question of animal nature. Its a question of fairness. Animals dont understand fairness but humans do. Fairness being the fact that no human is better than another human in all aspects.

    the only reason we realize this is because of ego. Self consciousness doesnt make the order of nature unfair. Are you saying humans are the only right force in the world because we have ego?

    OK, and back in the real world, men and women respect each other as equals. Celtic women fought and died alongside their men. 2500 years ago. I would call this a precedent.

    Maybe when you're older and really, really horny, you'll understand, son. Women are more than our equals. They are superior. It's not just about vagina, either.

    in contrast to your beliefs i feel its a beautiful thing when man and woman are equal. yes this is a patriarchial country and men will probably always be superior to women, but who sets these roles? society. males being dominant makes feminism unnatural? what is unnatural is the feminine characteristics society expects females to obtain.

    First your argument would have been more noticed if a female said it. Now you just sound like a boy who doesn't like the fact women are getting power.

    In most animals the female is dominant. Lioness hunt, females in species contol reproduction. I mean 1 guy 100 women works better than 1 woman and 100 guys.

    Guys are only the dominant gender because society put it that way. And if you look society is scared of women. In the witch hunts the majority killed were women. Women were held as lower classed citizens. Most probably reason: because the men in power didn't want to have to turn it over to the females.

    Femminism has been around for a good while. Ever hear of sufferagetes? Would you call that unnatural and women should have all rights stripped from them so power is only in the man's hands?

    And in all praticallity women could do everything a man can but pee standing in front of the toliet and get it in there. But I know some guys like that too.

    Sure we women might not do as well in some jobs (ones that require a relatively good amount of strength). But we can do all of the jobs men can as well.

    Get a few more years on you and you'll see that.

    P.S. You probably sound like a sexist in the post because those are sexist views. The idea that men are not able to do household things and women don't know how to work is absurb. Times have changed babe, catch up to them

    You see thats what makes us different, unique and if we treat everyone equally then it is natural because of the fact that humans are different than animals.

    But you are right, A man is only a man when he learns to stand up for not just himself but for those around him.

    I guess you dont see my point. You are under the impression that i condone set roles for men and women. You probably also jumped to the conclusion that I think women are inferior. I dont. I see it as a natural and, again, beautiful thing when a man and a women have seperate identities. We are different after all.

    But i dont understand. Am i wrong in saying that men and women are built differently? In general, males are built sturdier, while women are built to nurture life? I dont see how these views are sexist.
