Learn all about the oppression of men by women even in supposedly male-dominated societies. Women are always talking about how they have an unfair advantage in nearly everything in life from money to romance. Now it's time to show the bigger picture.

I love the stir of the media when it comes to males dominating females when it comes to pay. Men generally stay in the engineering, science & economic area, while women generally stay in other areas of work that pay much less, such as general education, social engineering, etc. The majority of men generally tend to get more education finishing with a Masters, while the majority of women usually finish with a Bachelors degree. | |

It would be nice to think that everyone will abide by the rules of the forum and not bash other religions, cultures etc. But it's happening on the message board. One only has to scroll through the posts in politics and awareness to see. So I'm just going cross my fingers and hope that all the ignorant people in the world wake up in the morning with some sense in their heads |
