Roleing over the competition.

Hey guys. I personally think that gender roles, despite the evolutionary advantage they gave our species in the past, have come to a point where they are no longer needed. However, we can not ditch completely the fact that the 2 genders are different. We must accept those differences as we accept the inconsistencies between 2 people. However, in this movement for the rights of women, things are being warped. There are groups out there trying to make women "more equal if you will" with people fighting that men are nothing but misogynistic pigs, and that they should be treated poorly because of their gender, and the wrongs that our ancestors have committed. Just the same as no Caucasian should be punished, or treated worse, because of the slavery that their ancestors put in place or because of the racism that some still hold today, no man should be treated poorly because of the actions of men throughout history. I agree with equality coming into place, but true equality, with the females taking the pains, as well as the pleasures, that society has laid out for men, and vice versa. If a girl hits a guy, he should be allowed to retaliate in kind, without shame for hitting a girl. Females should be taught to ask males out on dates, and maybe even pay some of the time, instead of waiting for people to come along bearing promises of free dinner all the time, and even rejecting that from time to time. If people of both genders asked each other out, and paid based on their incomes, codes of values, and every other possible variable, than the world would be more equal. I also believe that this one change would be the first step to taking gender roles to absolute ambiguity. True equality is what I strive for in any circumstance, and hate when things are unfair. However, fighting too hard for equality can often make people lose sight of what equality is. Take the police brutality case that has been going on for a while, just because some police officers get out of line, get hungry on power, or are just racist jerks, even the good officers of the law are getting a bad rap. People hate police officers now based on what a few of their kind did in the absence of values. Equality must be had by all, and if some members of a certain group or their ancestors before them believe(d) otherwise, than the group as a whole should not be treated any worse. Otherwise, we all stoop down to the level of the people that we hate. It is not easy to accept everyone despite all of the difference, but with some hard work, we can destroy stereotyping, as well as unequal treatment across the boar. See ya and allons-y
