How are women valued less than men?  They certainly have more rights than men.  Examine our courts-women are more likely to recieve lighter sentences, win litigation over men etc. Custody etc

The old disparity on pay is not true because women can miss more work and still recieve higher pay.

Women are more likely to be able to recieve higher education in America.

If you are going to break it down by color, it is almost impossible for men of certain ethnecities to get certain jobs because they are seen as a threat.

Try being a man with a car broken on the side of the road. If you are white no one will probably help you.  If you are any other ethnicity no one will help you.

RE: Not working for wages lol.  See how much a stay at home dad is respected/ or valued compared to a woman!

That's interesting.  Which women do you want to address first?  White, Black, Native, other; older/younger; educated/non--educated; married/single/divorced; working for wages/not working for wages; attractive/unattractive; children/no children, etc.  = )

I've heard of the Skinner "experiments" but am not completely familiar with them.  I am somewhat familiar with more "experiments" (which I personally find unethical) regarding touch and just born primates.  But can we extrapolate primate behavior onto humans?  Just a question.

Overpopulation altruism - again this isn't my belief.  It came from E.O. Wilson who's presently "untrendy".  My "history" of gay men didn't come from books; it came from men who claimed to be gay or what they prefer to be called in the university here "queer" men - and women.  If you do read Wilson, he claims that "gay men" - he doesn't refer to women - suppress their desire to reproduce for what he calls altruistic reasons.  Not sure I agree with the reproduction as a biological imperative or self-preservation.  That seems like biological determinism to me and that is something I really don't agree with.

I said gay men "hate" women in response to the domineering mother statement.

Women are devalued in this society and a lot of the stigma attached to gays is because they are "like women", not because gay men hate them.

Referring to the genetic argument again - do you remember the extra "Y" chromosome that was thought to be related to criminal behavior?  That was disproved by another study that found that XYY males were just as well represented to "acceptable" behavior and did not necessarily show any greater tendency towards aggression than the "XY" male.  That's just one of the reasons genetics and genetic markers aren't something I really believe in.  Genetic markers might be triggered by environmental factors - that's still being studied.

Maybe I should add that I don't always believe in studies either.  In most cases, researchers are going to find whatever the organization is who funds them wants them to find or lose their funding.

These are just opinions.  I KNOW I don't know even a fraction of what there is to know about human sexual preferences.

"not a genetic component in lesbian women just an extension of the monkey grooming instinct and a variation in what and how things get groomed."  LOL
