I don't think it's either. I beleive within the years up to now, Women have been voicing their opinions, wanting to have a sense of their own independency. By far in some households the roles have been changing. Some men are stay at home fathers while the mother goes out and work. That right there makes you view this topic and wonder ok now who is better? I believe we are more diverse now when it comes to who makes the most money or who is the breadwinner of the home. I believe we as women are now equal. Somethings we know men do like construction jobs, there are not alot of women that do those kind of jobs, however, I have seen women before working just like the rest of them....Either way I believe we both are on a equal level rather than wondering who is better...

Yes, it is definitely a man's world..but it is nothing without a man.. They say the person above created man the first day and rested, the next day he created woman and since then, neither the person above or woman has rested !!

Well I think that equality doesnt mean the same as being able to do all the same things. If I am 5' tall and my husband is 6' tall then he can reach things I cant not because hes a man but because he is taller-the same is true of other things like carrying heavy things etc. Equality doesnt mean all the same it means everyone being treated the same according to thier abilities not thier gender.When a man acts a gentleman then he is being polite and decent and when a woman acts a lady she is doing the same thing. We each have a role to play but that doesnt mean we are all exactly the same. It used to be that men had all the responsibility in a marriage for instance- the woman stayed home and didnt contribute financially but that was so wrong- adults should contribute to the home not just men. The raising of children should not be just a womans thing as children need the guidance and care of their fathers also. Each human being can contribute to their family and to the world according to thier ability not according to their gender. Women can be mothers and the President, men can be a Father and the CEO of a company. When men and women walk together hand in hand and work together they can accomplish anything. When we deny the other their rightful place we lose.

ya your aboslutely right coz women are more realistic than man. we're always futuristic, we always want to see/ know what will happen if we do/think/decide things now in the future. we want to prepare things in order and detailed, we want things to be perfect. We also have a discernment spirit, if we feel somethings strange going to happen we always absolutely right in what we feel. Yes we admit in physical strength that man is stronger than women but you know that the strength of a woman is originally comes from a man, we get our strength with you MAN. we stronger if we know that your always at our side to comfort us, listen in to what ever feelings we have shared, symphatize in our deep emotions and love us without limitations.

hello amaine i think u got very well that what man can do but i think u don't get exactly what woman can do.i think u got it some extent.My dear friend u told the equality of man n woman.u r telling that ur PM is a lady.u told that there is some heavy works which man can do woman can't.i think u r wrong Its the curtsy of a man that to offer a help to a woman but that does not mean that woman can't do that work.u may take the example of labourers there is also womans who r doing work for there family..with their homework .in todays world woman can do everything what man can do n she can do some more which men can't.In my opinion they r in equal place.....

In my opinion men and women can never be equal. God has created them different in many regards. These are the divine laws. You are right there are many things that a woman can not do. For example, In army , if you see the serious and destructive task are given to only men. I dont mean women are nothing. They play a vital role in our lives. My religion says the paradise is beneath the feet of a mother. It gives alot of respect to women. But it also tells us that women's wisdom is never perfect.

When the term equal is refered means "equal opportunities". everybody knows a women is not the same as men, the body is different, some ways of thinking, talking and even ways of experience feelings are different. What should existe in all the countries is equal opportunities, if they want to do a hard job in constrution or being a top manager or anything else they should have the opportunity in doing it. They should be judged and nominated by they capabilities not because they are women or men.

being a man i should say that man are the best,but i am not going to respond like that .days have been passed when it was thought that woman cant't do anything except taking care of child,but now womans are playing very important roll ,they are participating in each field equally with man,every where in industry ,space engineering women are playing great roll.

I do not agree that all men are better than women but there are some men who are indeed better than some women. In the past, I feel that women are not given a chance to show their talents that's why at that time, women are not "respected". In this modern world, most countries treat men and women are equal in terms of education, qualifications and career except maybe for the third world country. In terms of physical strength, of course women can't compare themselves with men since women are born to be physically not as fit as men so that men can take the chance to show their gentlemen quality. To conclude, I personally feel that mentally, women and men are equal but not for physical comparison.

both r good in wat they do . some things men can do beter than women and some things women can do better than men considering all the works on this universe.men can do things that require more masculine things better than women and women can do best things based on communication as they have better communication skills than men .

I believe man and woman has always been the equal in status but in some periods man tried to dominate woman..tried to suppress them ..and also tried to confined them to the house and to their foot.But this are all past..we should think about present and future..Now woman and man are of equal status in every field of life ..Woman have now invaded the International Space centre which was all to the man as yet..but the things have changed completely..Now woman are leading many countries and also leading thier countries in the war front..so whatelse proof should be given to show you that now man and woman are equal in terms of intelligence,strength,leadership quality etc...

What men do, somethings women can not do. But what women do, somethings men can not do. I think, women are more passionate, love and caring,keeps lower temper and cool minded than men.... all are equal in their own respect.

well.. as for me.. it actually depends... its all in the person and not on the gender.. we are all good in different things and we cant say who is better bacause.. in certain parts of our selves there are missing parts.. and thats why we have opposite sexes, too fill those incapacities.
