In what ways have the rights been of particular importance to women and minorities?
Equal rights ensure equal representation before law, and equal treatment, among others. It'd be grossly unjust to allow one demographic, the rights that they need, but to deny the same rights to women and minorities. Women and men are just as important to our society, so equal rights only make sense. "African Americans and women are not the only groups of people who have faced overt discrimination. In the early years of the republic, Catholics and Jews were denied the right to vote in some states. The Irish, Jews, and other immigrants faced a long period of de facto discrimination in housing, educational opportunities, and employment. Nor does the civil rights struggle involve only racial minorities, as the status of the disabled, homosexuals, and women demonstrates."
What important roles do women play in society?
Females ARE society. Without females, males quickly devolve into tribes of uncivilized, war-mongering maniacs. Didn't you read Lord of the Flies in school? Some males will deny this, claiming they're not violent. True enough. The non-violent ones would be quickly subjugated or killed by stronger, more dominant and aggressive males. Examine male prison culture and you'll get a taste of what the world would be like without females. EDIT: @ Mr. Dot - I know at least one male here who is not idiotic, aggressive and phobic ;-)
Why isn't body shaming towards men given the same importance as body shaming towards women?
In theory, neither is okay, as others have stated.-In reality, body-shaming is indeed more tolerated towards men than towards women, and the main reason for this, ironically, comes from what was initially a discrimination against women. Let’s cut this paradox open.In 2018, in the Occident, women are still objectified (Everyone is, everyone has always been and everyone WILL ALWAYS BE. Objectification is a necessary evil, and as much as it saddens me to even say it: it benefits as much people than it dooms them. I may elaborate in comments if asked, but that’s not the subject here.), perhaps more than they have ever been in history. That was the point then: women were seen as “objects”, they were not meant to do, but to be, and usually had no choice. Has this changed? Of course it has, but it can’t ever truly disappear.In 2018, in the Occident, men are objectified too. By no means am I an expert on the subject, but I assume this truly grew over the last 70 years. Before that, they were the opposite regarding this: they were meant to do, not to be, but they still could.If I were to compare the evolution of both, let’s say women were 80% objectified through history and now slowly got up to 100% (Making today the benchmark.), men were maybe 10% objectified through history and got up to 70% in less than a century. (These are absolutely made-up numbers, that’s an illustration, there’s no fact behind these but my own interpretation.)-What has changed now?Women are still expected to be, but they can do almost anything now. And that’s exactly where the double standards sit: while they can, they are not expected to do as much as men.Meanwhile, men are still expected to do, but they also have to be now, in some proportion.-As a result: women are more shamed regarding their physical appearance than men overall, but in a weird twist of intelligence, the social consensus has decided that it was unfair that women’s value is so much based on their appearance, and so, women bodies shaming is bad.On the other hand, men are less shamed regarding their physical appearance, but since (more or less) half of their value still has to come from what they do, and not from what they look like, the same social consensus has decided that men bodies shaming was not as bad. And woe betide any man who failed at doing, regardless of his purpose, since unlike his woman counterpart who may still get by by being, his social value is pretty much halved.
What are the most important factors that make a man attractive to women?
I will list what will move you into advantage zones for general dating scene, especially for the first date or hangout:Basics:Appearance: Yes, it matters… here are some of the common theme I noticed.Weight wise, be fit: Please do the workout and get fit, you don’t need to be buff, but have some muscle is a plus, woman find it easier to be attracted to a thinner man than overweight. Studies support that: Ladies Prefer Thin Over Macho, Study SuggestsOr don’t work out, but look for a woman your size, or over. Then the weight ratio will work.Be clean: Dress neatly, be any style you want but make sure your clothing is neat/clean and not draggy. If you have a beard, trim that beard to a neat style, comb your hair.Look for girls shorter than you is general advice, but above average tall women might be less picky about heights: Woman generally prefers men taller than her in over 90% of the time. But if you are into really tall women, they are actually the ones who might be less picky about a guy’s height because they got plenty of rejection themselves.Be financially stable or independent: Hold a stable job, if you don’t have a stable job it’s hard for a woman to hold you at high esteem. Women are looking for a “reliable” partner who can provide. Live by yourself, have experience of living by yourself or with friends will further your chances.Depth:Have goals for your future or be clear about what you love to do: Women generally find these traits attractive when you are talking.Find your humor and personal confidence: Know what style of humor you have, be able to tell your personal stories in a fun way, practice getting good body language and good confident tone of voice, it will make you much more engaging and immediately attractive. Charisma on CommandRespect: Treat the woman with respect, it won’t matter which type of women, we will appreciate that very much.Listen: If you are meeting a quiet woman, make sure you ask questions to get her to talk. If you are talking to a talkative woman, flow with her and give her feedback. (but know what personality you are… and make sure you are enjoying it too no matter who you are with)
What are things that women (smart women too) are attracted to in men, but deny?
Women are attracted to valuable men, and that does NOT mean( money, looks, job, etc...). There are tons, of low income, non-good looking , non prestigious job working men who offer immense value to women, and therefore have more female partners that you can imagine (at the same time as well).Women can SAY what they are attracted to, but how they respond can be, and is usually different. A very feminine woman is going to be attracted to a very masculine man. What is a masculine man? Someone who is grounded, like a tree that stands no matter how hard the wind blows, someone that doesn't depend on situation to be secure, someone who goes after what he wants and who he wants. Women want to feel like they have been chosen from the many options you have , not your only option. In general, women like men who are good with other women, not because of the fact that you actually sleep with a lot of women, but because you are in abundance, and not a needy creep. The funny thing is, you already have everything you need. You don't need to do a dance or show off toys. This is where the age old advice comes in " just be yourself". That's what women want, the REAL you inside every man. Not the insecure you who thinks "after I get this and that...THEN I'll be attractive", not the one who is afraid to talk to women, afraid of expressing your true desires.AGAIN WOMEN DONT CARE ABOUT MONEY OR LOOKS. Some women may want to date a guy with money, but guess what, she's going to cheat on you with a broke douchebag. Not because he's a douchebag but because he doesn't give a shit about all these things holding most guys back.
