Or what if like, with certain species of animals, female humans were generally bigger and stronger than their male counterparts?

Yuck! Do you really want a 7 foot tall, 300 pound gal named Bertha to roll over, grab your nuts at midnight, and demand you to satisfy her?! |

If you don't think women were kept down one way or another prior to recent times you are in some sort of denial. |
I think in a lot of ways, women are just as much to blame for keeping themselves down...but I am referring to more recent years. Recent (the last 20 years) feminism started that "sister speak" behavior of supporting your fellow woman instead of banding together (with other women) against her. You know, the whole "give a tampon to a woman in the bathroom" sort of behavior...or "if your boyfriend is cheating on you, you and the other woman should team up and get revenge" sort of thing....ideas found in the Cosmopolitan and Glamour magazines...I don't subscribe to either (the magazines or the way of thinking), but it's an interesting concept to introduce into this conversation. Not that I wouldn't hand over a girl a tampon if she needed one, but to me that whole nonsense is over the top and attracts more negative attention and labeling ("Nazi Fem"). |

| God doesn't exist, I reckon. So how about "does evolution hate women"? Best to keep the topic in reality. With so much similarity (though a few outliers) in how human groups have organized themselves with men at the top and women not, it must be the case that evolution hates women. |
