Lmao in short…hell no.
If they could it would have happened decades ago with Olympic level women…stupid being stupid.
SuperTroll:
Actually they can, but they tend to have to use steroids unless they are an outlier woman(and there are outliers who are quite powerful, but they are exactly that, outliers)
and Smoothjazz:
Sure thing, I’ll return later with some stuff from feminists(especially the ones at the radical end) that deny any meaningful differences between men and women, despite all evidence to the contrary.
edit: Fuck it just read the damn SCUM manifesto, that one posits that there aren’t any differences period(other than men being incomplete abortions of women)
I did forget about the steroid thing…I will rephrase and say"naturally able"to compete.
I guess I also should clearity what kind of man I mean. If we talk about your average everyday untrained man then it’s possible a woman under steroids with constant training can compete but against a evenly trained athletic men then hell no(which is why I used the Olympics as a example).
Women simply don’t want to do those types of jobs. Even if they don’t even involve actual lifting. If they perceive it as being some sort of super physical job(that doesn’t include some sort of domestic skill like cooking/cleaning) they won’t even apply for something like that. And most of the women that you even see doing those aforementioned type of jobs(cooking,cleaning) are either foreign(hispanic) or very young/minorities. I know I have seen a whole shit load of guys being trained to work on railroads/windtowers/oilrigs and 99 POINT FUCKING 9 percent of them were male. Unless if it was for some inside secretarial work. When was the last time you saw a woman standing outside home depot looking for work, or doing roofing in the hot sun.
Thats right, shut the fuck up.
^That does raise an obvious question. There is a serious gender disparity in the occupations with the highest morality rate(Meatpacking, manufacturing, construction, military combat). Why aren’t women burning down the gates nearly as much to get into those jobs as they do jobs in academe or corporate America?(even in the military case, it was a very small subset of women making a large amount of noise)
lol the only women that even work Meatpacking or manufacturing jobs any more are minorities. My mom worked in a slaughterhouse way back in the day. Both her and my father picked fruit when they were young too. My dad said his sisters used to kick his ass when it came to picking fruit and that used to drive him crazy lol.
Because when feminist made up the patriarchy theory they only looked at the 1% of men at the top and ignored the remaining 99% working at the bottom and entry level. Ya see for women to be equal and"trail blazers"they must only see equal representation in only the most esteemed and confortable working positions. The kicker though is that the second these dangerous jobs become stable and safe, women will complain in mass how they’ve been historically discriminated and excluded from these jobs meaning the only reason behind the disportionate death rate is cause of men’s own sexism O_o
Again there are outliers who can do it without steroids, but they should not be taken as representatives, see this woman for instance:
This woman would destroy me!
Would Smash.
There’s a difference between games using sex appeal to create interest and sexism. Also, body physique is often exaggerated in comics and video games to make genders clearly identifiable. The sexism in gaming is mostly from the players themselves, not the games.
Tell that to the people that think Dragon’s Crown is a rape manual.
While it is true that men (on average) are stronger than women, the main disparity here is that most women don’t want to bulk up and put on the necessary muscle/go through the hard miles learning how to lift, move shit, etc. I can’t remember the studies name, so maybe you guys can find it, but there was one conducted where it said around 70-80% of women would sacrifice higher pay for more conveniences like lunch breaks, less physical exertion, etc, whereas most men will give up those rights in favor of getting top dollar.
I object to your calling that horseshit “thought”.
Well of course it is…big tits trigger male arousal and since male sexuality=rape then clearly it is a rape manual.
Yeah, true enough about the olympics, never thought about that.
There are some feminists that would say that ‘the patriarchy’ is to blame for men doing a lot of physical labour because of stereotypical views women are too delicate to do them.
Anita made it on kotaku again
>praising games that don’t involve damsels in distress
Wait, so the majority of the games that have come out in the past 10 years? lol
Though it still buggers the imagination why there aren’t massive protests or a slew of editorials/zines/articles demanding entry into these privileged jobs.
Also what about other undesirable jobs like sewage plants, garbage collections, etc. iirc those are still disproportionately held by men too, why are we letting them keep such bastions of privilege to themselves?
