1. If men can go shirtless in public then why not women?
2. Why even have separate restroom facilities at all? Why separate showers and lockerooms?
3. Why in the Olympics and many other sporting contests are men and women separated? Why not just one gold medal for the 100 meter dash, etc etc?

Why are women now independent yet still think the man should pay for all dates?

In many places in the US its perfectly legal for women to go topless. In college I worked with a hippie chick who would do just that in the summertime.

I have to do a lot of desk warming today so I've been using this forum more than ever.

1. If men can go shirtless in public then why not women?

Because men are horny mother penetrators.


2. Why even have separate restroom facilities at all? Why separate showers and lockerooms?


Because men are horny mother penetrators.

3. Why in the Olympics and many other sporting contests are men and women separated? Why not just one gold medal for the 100 meter dash, etc etc?

Because men are physically superior.

Noone said men and women are equal in every way. The equality you are thinking about is "Equal Rights". This is different.

Legal for women to go topless? I don't have a problem with that...

Men are horny?...well yeah but I've lived in the Philippines for some time and you wouldn't believe how horny the women are there.

Going topless for women is legal in lots of places in Canada, too. I personally wouldn't do it, because men and women view nudity differently. I have gone skinny dipping in mixed company, but that was with people I'd known for ages and was comfortable with.

And to nourozi......I wouldn't use the word 'superior' (we do give BIRTH, after all) but yes men are generally stronger than women.

Because the world is unfair and sexist. This may be shocking news for some, I'm sure. If women were trained as well as men (including socialization) we would be equal competetors in sports overall. I challange anyone who denies this to a mixed martial arts match. Either I win my point or have fun trying!

Equal competitors in sports overall?
1. Run comparble to Usain Bolt in the 100 meters?
2. Play for the NFL?
3. Play for the NBA?
4. Heavyweigtht Boxing contender?
5. Swim and come close in time to Michael Phelps?
6. In terms of the Marathon (26.2 miles) or Triathlons women do have the time to train as equally as men do so why the constant disparity in their times?

1. yup.
2. sure.
3. why not
4. weight class for weight class.
5. In case you haven't notice, don't care.
6. Etc. etc- If you keep the expectations for men and women the same, we can compare stats. Before then, you are babbling sports stats without the benefit of analysis.
