Search Results: have cake and eat it too

Many women today feel they have the right to expect equality while others think they should get special consideration. It’s difficult to know what is expected of us by society when such difference exists.

Should a woman that demands equality be privilege to the special considerations the more traditional women are privy to like protection from most men in society? It’s often the case we use the differences in the gender to justify treating women more gently the men in ways such as not hitting them, not requiring the same standards such as in requiring the draft to vote, and social expectations like chivalry. We can argue everyone should be treated well but institutions, society, and the law all treat situations with varying severity dependent on gender.

If we can answer this question then ask how we can differentiate between the traditional woman that wants the special consideration and the modern woman who feels every bit equal to a man?

Women currently have their cake and eat it too in regards to this situation. How do you feel we should proceed going forward?
