I am NOT against anything that is RIGHT. where the blind hog of feminism says a woman should get paid the same as a man for the same job, we agree. that doesnt make me a blind hog. it makes me a right thinking Chirstian.

I for one am thankful for those brave women who fought for equal rights for women. You can call them anything you want. I don't think I would have enjoyed living 200 years ago, when women were basically considered mere possessions and icing on a man's cake.

I think things would have to be taken to an extreme to see it really do any good to bring about change. Otherwise men just don't listen. It's too bad that it's the man's world that caused a woman to have to push so hard.

Which really only goes to show you how out of balance our world really is. How many more 100's of years will it take to bring about the equality that Jesus would be pleased with?

humanity will fail until Jesus gets tired of hearing it.

and those Christian women who stood for what was right, are a far cry different from modern feminism.

They may be...but back in THEIR day, can you just imagine what they had to go through? And the things that were said about THEM? Either to their face or behind their backs. I'm sure it's not much different from what is being said about some women today.

Sometimes extremes have to be sought after, just to bring things into a proper BALANCE.

Do you personally see or recognize any discrimination of women in our world today?

are you talking about individual cases or in America as a society and women as a class?

the answers to these are very different.

Any and all I guess...mostly just wondering if you and I had different ideas of what discrimination against women really is. And wondered if your experiences from your part of the world were any different than mine.
