How Real are Gender Differences?

As sad as it is they are very real. Women are treated very differently than men are. Men get paid more for doing the same job and there are some jobs women are not allowed to do because of their gender. Some of those jobs I agree with though. I do not think it is physically responsible to let a women become a Navy Seal. Although they can shoot, blow things up, and kick an ass just as good as a man can. But, it a 250 pound guy was injured in battle what are the chances that the 150 pound female can carry his body to safety. It is not very logical nor is it going to happen. Not to say that there is a women out there that could do it, but what are the chances of that particular women being in the Navy Seals. I hope I am making my point politically clear. I think and believe that women are just as equal as men and in some cases more so, just for the simple fact that they are the reason for child birth. But there are somethings women should not do and there are somethings men should not do.

A Taboo Word?

I do not know that there is really anything I consider taboo when it comes to language. Taboo is something that is forbidden or held sacred. When it comes to speaking i do not consider anything taboo or forbidden. There is only three words that I will not say because they have such hateful meanings and they are: GD, the N-word, and Faggot. So I guess if I would consider them forbidden from my vocabulary because I do not like to hear them or nor will I say them. So, those would be the only thing I consider taboo about my language, but only because I do not use those words.

The Ad in a Magazine

My favorite magazine is "Details". A great magazine. I found an ad in one of this issues laying around the house that was very interesting. It caught my attention as soon as I saw it. The add was for some cologne. The cologne is called "Cordavon", I have it smells great. The ad has no words, just an image of a man. A very good-looking, strong, and sexy dude. He is spread out all over this rock with nice clothes on (no doubt from Banana Republic since that is who makes the cologne) soaked with water and the clothes are as if they are glued or painted onto his body. It is directed towards men, obviously since it is a man's fragrance. But, who in the hell looks like that. I mean come one give me a break. Yeah if I could have that body and face I would drink the stuff. But, that is not going to happen. But, you know I still went out and spent almost $78 on a damn bottle of cologne because the ad caught my eye and was appealing to me. I do not care who you are man or woman, you judge the same sex and if you see someone better looking you are a little envious. It's only human nature.

Internet and Success

Yes I think that in today's time there is a connection between the internet and success. The internet is a host of knowledge and opportunites. If someone is building a house, most likely they will search the internet for businesses that specialize in building houses. A women getting married will not just look in the stores at wedding dresses, she will go online and look at thousands of them and then narrow her choice down to a few in a particular store. She saves money that way by not having to drive around to tons of stores and the store she choose the dress at made money because they were on the internet. A huge portion of the success of a business has to do with the way it advertises. The internet helps that business reach millions upon billions of people. The net also increases knowledge and saves time getting that knowledge. Why spend hours in a library looking for a book that might not be there when you can go directley to it on the net. So, yes internet and success do run hand in hand.

Are Men Smarter Than Women?

Of course they are. It has been proven centuries ago that men are the superior gender. Now, it's time for me to get stomped. Of course not!!! Men are no smarter than women. Everyone has their own unique quality about them that differs from the next. Some women are smarter than men and some men are smarter than women. A persons sex does not make them smarter. All though in some cases men will say that women are smarter just to avoid a fight or conflict. I have said that to my ex-wife many times. "Yes honey, you are right, you are smarter and i am always wrong." Even though she was wrong and not smarter. But, in some things she was smarter than I, she could count calories so much better than I could. So, a person knowledge and brains is individually based. By the way this is a loaded question that will get someone in trouble later on.

To Consume

To consume is to take in or use up. I do not know if our habits of consumption can provide a pitcure of our ethical responsibilities or not, but I do think they can give insight on our environmental responsibilities. What a person consumes varies from person to person and that has really nothing to do with ethics, in my opinion. I mean some people consume too many big macs, while other consume to much porn on the internet. A person consumption of daily products in life has no ethical bearing. I suppose that if one debated on the ethical testing of cosmetics on animals, then yeah those who wear make-up might have some eithical issues with those who do not. Same goes for those who watch porn. Those who wish to see it abolished would have different ethical values from those who enjoy watching it. But, as for our ethical responsibilities our consumption does not carry much weight. However, it does have to do with our environmental responsibilities.

Media in Our Society

Oh my God...I am about to be on a soap box with this one. I cannot stand the damn media. Who gives a **** what Brittany Spears is doing, who Lindsey Loham is sleeping with, or how many time Chris Brown hit Rhianna and why she is so domb to get back with him. I do not care that is not news. It pisses me off when the media protrays what looks good and who looks good wearing it. Because now I have to work out and develop a six pack just to get laid. I mean come one the ripples on your stomach does not make you good in bed. Our society is so tangled up in the lives of movie stars, singers, politicians, and reality tv shows that they do not even know who the hell they are. We do not have individuals anymore...we have groups. We have groups that look good, do not look good, fat, thin, those that wear prada and those that wear wal-mart. The media focuses on what they want to share and they do not release all the facts about a person. The media focused so much on the fact that a few soldiers made some damn terrorists crawl on the ground with a pair of panties on their head, like it was some horrid and inhumane act against humanity. Those assholes helped to blow up the world trade center and kill 1000's of people. I say they should have been made to squill like a pig while crawling around like that. But because the media broadcasted that from breakfast to dinner world wide for weeks all of a sudden Americans are inhumane. Please give me a break. I think there ought to be censorship in what the media is allowed to release. They tell about an attack before we even do it. No wonder Bin Laden is still alive. All that asshole has to do is watch CNN or MSNBC and he knows when he has to pack up and move camp. Damn the media. There I'm done for now...lol...
