Is that it ... are Women now that liberated that they now stand on a wholly equal footing with Men ??

for socialising of children i think men are essential......

i may be a strong, independent women, but i like having a man in my life, i like being guided by him, and i like being able to rely on a men.......there is something special about having the support of a man..rather than just support of female friends (which is also important)

maybe i don't "need" a man in my life the way women used to but it is nice to have them there........and one day when i have kids i will NEED a man in my life.

Men need women and vice versa because whether you believe in God, Mother nature or whatever, we were designed to be together. All this "Independant woman" rubbish is a waste of time and men keeping women down is equally stupid - we need each other.

OK, so is it equality, rather than having one or the other .... I know some women who would disagree ... heartily

There is always the fight over who is the better sex, is there a better one ??

I can understand the relying on a partner, but disagree that the Man should always have the last word. Surely any relationship is a partnership, equal all the way ??

Men are medically different to women in that we don't have a single specialised area for language so it's harder for us to communicate and be empathic, we don't have as good peripheral vision so it's easier for women to spot us oggling other women, women can find mates easier than men can.

Thank you ... my point is should there be a conflict within the sexes. Are we not all equal.

What happened previously, Victorian times etc, to my mind was entirely wrong. I don't believe Men should dominate Women.

There are some that will disagree.

Nope, neither is better, both are just different

equality is good yes.......there is no better sex, when all is said and done we are all human, like there is no better race/skin colour.....

yes equality in a relationship, but as i said before biblically it states that a women should submit to her husband.....

need when i have kids because......i am of the view that for at least the first five years the women should be at home with the kiddies, thus would need to guy to earn money........reminds me of a convo with ur wfie on saturday :p

good point, and i think it is these difference that make us more interesting to each other

Women are also far better at multi tasking...e.g. driving and talking. (No that is not meant to be belittling to women...I can't drive and talk to my partner with out nearly hitting the car in front !! - Well perhaps not that bad but I hope you know what I mean)

And men ramble on forums too much to !
