Don't Forget: Tomorrow, March 8 is Women's Day in Poland! [140]
What is so offensive in his way that so many posters jump on him?
I will elaborate what's my problem with Zimmy some other day (I hope lol).
In Poland we would observe Woman's Day and Boy's Day (Dzień Chłopaka) at school. Boys would give girls presents on March 8 and girls would give boys presents on 30th September:

It looks like it's still done:

But we didn't celebrate Woman's Day and Boy's Day (or Men's Day) at high school anymore nor at the university or at work.
Men and women are different, but one dares not assert that in modern times for fear of being labelled sexist
I think we are all aware that women and men are different. That's not the point. The point is - women are
different, but not
worse.
Men are generally solutions oriented while women are generally experience oriented.
Hmmmmm, I don't know... When I brake my nail first I cut it so it would be even, then I usually cut the rest of my nails so they would be the same length and then I think what I should do to avoid it happening next time and I would probably also wonder: "Hmm, maybe I should eat more vitamins?" lol
Does this mean I'm a man? :O
Voltaire said women lack the capacity to understand genuine absurdity
Oh, let us not stop at Voltaire (after all he lived in 18th century). Herbert Spencer, an English philosopher, biologist and sociologist of the Victorian era, believed that female evolution, meaning
intellectual evolution, had stopped at a stage before man's in order to preserve vital organs for childbirth. If a woman undertook rigorous 'brain work' such as mathematics, energy could be diverted from her reproductive system, threatening fertility and general wellbeing.
I also remember reading about a British MP, I think, who thought that studying at university would damage women's brains ^__^
Another reason that suffrage was a mistake.
I wonder what Zimmy, Ironside and Grzegorz think about what kondzior wrote... Do you guys agree?
