No i don't agree with it. The assumption is that the cooperation can ONLY lead to genative results. A more accurate picture would by if we added the context that it is the woman's goal to draw the bow and fire the arrow. Let's say - there's an apple on her head, and if the guy hits it, she will be incredibly wealthy and happy for the rest of her life, and so will he.
Additionally, it also makes the assumption that women can't do harm to men. Statistics show that's blatantly false.
Also, it assumes that both sides do equal work to draw the bow. Anyone who has walked Earth knows this is not true - men have to work far more to draw that bow. And it ain't easy.
Also, you forget that there are dozens of bows pointed at the guy - if he misses the apple, the other guys will shoot HIM full of arrows. Because society just loves to protect women.
So in fact a correct picture would be a woman standing in the end of the room with an apple on top of her head, attached to a complicated contraption that holds up a picket of gold somewhere. There are guys around the room aiming their bow at the one guy shooting the apple. If the apple falls, they both win. If she gets shot, so does he. Of course the other guys might miss. That's part of life.
I don't want to overcomplicate the analogy, but suffice to say, the one who made the original has a weird understanding of the world.

That's idiotically stupid. Why do women keep claiming to be victims when they live longer healthier lives then men, work less, spend more, have more rights and as the current political events have shown, have any claim they make about harm to them taken as an absolute fact even in the face of contradictory evidence? meanwhile suicide is still almost entirely male as is workplace accidents and deaths, homelessness, combat deaths and violent crime deaths. But yeah women are victims, some how, because "vagina".
He can’t pull back the bow string if she takes a step forward when he tries. If he releases the bow the arrow will just flop onto the floor. He also is only using 1 hand ask anyone who practices archery if they pull the string back, push the bow foreword or both. His ability to pull it back, even if she cooperates is largely dependent on her ability to hold it in place. Bow strings have lbs of force depending on the bow many lbs. with 1 arm I seriously doubt she could.
This is analogous for A woman’s love in this case, though it could be easily flipped. She is vulnerable to him. She puts herself in an exposed position (which is what love is, giving someone else the ability to hurt you emotionally) but he could never hurt her, because they are one, because he loves her.
I'm not a big fan of this analogy but I see where it is getting to.

I don't know how gender equality debates look like but I'm against gender equality in general. :-D I find it a very counter-productive concept to focus on because there are usually too many variables involved to get any sense of "perfect equality".
It's like take an issue like whether female restrooms ought to provide tampons. Trying to argue that from a gender equality perspective like, "Men have this so women should have that," only for the men to say, "Wait, that's not fair, women have this, so they shouldn't also have this," is something I see a lot and that's a never-ending argument because it's focused on some fuzzy notion of fairness and equality which no one will ever agree upon.
So I prefer to tackle these issues in a way that's generally not about equality. We can ask what's good for society, what's good for the business owners, the customers, etc. Any angle but equality as I see it. The only times I find equality relevant is when the two groups are identical in nature but not treated the same way. And for most gender issues that's not the case.As a guy who lost everything in a divorce, I strongly disagree.
What is had to do with equality in the first place? men tend to be naturally stronger.
tvtropes.org/.../WouldntHitAGirlI think it's quite true!. . Man's job in relationship is like pulling an arrow!.
Either her can suffer the pain of Maintaining the pull!.
But if he let go!. It's going to hurt and kill the women he love..I don't get it - If either drops the weapon is ineffectual but only the woman can get hurt - That seems a bit extreme
No i don't if anything it should be reversed. Frankly I'm not sure I believe in an equality where men are made to be weak just for the female convenience.
Women should not only trust guys, where's the woman's bow?
Nope, men and women have inequalities both need to be addressed, a better picture would be each person holding a bow at each other, but feminists hate to admit men have it hard too or else they couldn’t play the victim
According to Schrödinger, it can be any of the suggested reactions... simultaneously.
I don't think it's particularly applicable in the United States.
In other parts of the world, that's a different story.Yeah, pretty much. Especially since that bow doesn't even have a string.
Almost, you forgot the part where women could've just grabbed a bow themselves, lmao
No, wtf
Nope, it misses a lot of factors.
