equal in dignity, not in equal in everything. men are stronger, and i might think have a higher range of intelligence (more genius and retard men than women etc), and have different instincts and reactions, sexually and in relationships. men are more rational women are more emotional. men and women have different biology.

Well, are you equally attracted to men and women? If no, then that means they are not equal in that sense.

Equal before the law, in rights and in dignity, if this is what you mean.

Males and females are not equal biologically, as each has certain skillsets evolved into their brain chemistry.

men and women however, are indeed equal, because the concept of gender is equally bullshit

does that answer your question?

How do you all feel about a man being over his wife?

Do you disagree about marriage vows from the wife to honor and obey?

just as a practical matter, in any relationship, there will be more of an alpha and a beta with the partners. it's natural for men to be alpha given their physical attributes and emotional etc. of course there should be freedom to not adhere to this structure... but in general, it's not just a religious idea, men should be more dominant and women more submissive. even before religion, i'm sure cavemen were the dominant ones, and cave women more submissive. it's  just nature.

I agree that there is nature at play, but I disagree that man can force a woman.

There is a big difference between willing submission and violence.

The former is somewhat acceptable.

I don't think this is the rule. Lol.

I think this is all bullshit. We all know that in many cases women really wear the pants in a family.

By the way, did you just changed your nickname or you created another account? Lol.

Sorry, but most societies where "man is over wife" tend to come with more violence.

Same account and name. Do you think because of the type of society being pushed with feminism and what have you that women are head of men particularly wives being the head of their husbands?

I guess you may think it's fair to say that society is geared for women to be just as dominant regardless of nature. So we have discussions about equality, men and women sports, making certain job roles more gender neutral.

Job roles such as stewardess to flight attendant, waitress to server, secretary to administrative assistant.

For the longest I didn't know about that last one. I believe the word "actress" has been abandoned and they're all called actors alike.

Its not "he obeys her or she obeys him".

There are agreements and disagreements.

They both only do that which they agree to, dont do that which they disagree about.

Of course, there are cases where decision has to be made, but they disagree.

Then its solved through discussion and compromise.

Yes.

Well when I speak of gender I speak of the physical which is very real and not fictitious.

It has nothing to do with feminism. I am saying that there are wives with stronger character than their husbands so in the end they end up being the men of the house.

Yes, but I dont dictate how a woman will live her life.

It is, and should be, her choice.

You want a woman to live . That very woman is a wife you want to obey her husband that tells her to get out of the way of that moving vehicle about to strike her down.

You seem to be unaware of how women are. Not all women are submissive as well as not all men are dominnering. There you have the explanation.

On the face of the question, NO!

But you have to define "equal" across the entire spectrum of humanity where both/either sex is concerned.

You still didn't tell me what was the cause. Just say you don't know. It's all good.
