Battle of the sexen
"Are women discriminated against?" a philosophical debate on Google+. I am not saying that this feminist is incorrect, it is terrible for anyone to suffer chronic pain, and such a thing is a tragic failure. But it raises the question, does equality carry a price, that being treated equally may not equate to being treated better?
Feminist - "Sad to say, but women are totally discriminated against when it comes to chronic illness and the pain we endure! A man can get a splinter in his butt and get morphine, but a woman is accused of hysteria, exhibiting 'drug-seeking behaviors', told to 'lower your stress level', all kinds of things that men never hear if she needs more than an aspirin or ibuprofen. This is sooo wrong, on sooo many levels! If MEN care about women, and don't like seeing us in pain, then they need to step up and help, instead of ignoring us and our pain. Please. Thanks, Sir richard, for the question. There are MANY ways that women all over are discriminated against, and true equality is as big a lie as GMO foods are GOOD for us."

Me - "in the old days, when men were gentlemen and women were ladies, ladies were cared for. Then women demanded to be treated equal. And now you are. And you are no longer cared for. Well, if you want equality you can't have it both ways, you can't be equal and yet expect men to look after you too!"
In terms of breast cancer vs prostate cancer, far more is spent per death on the former. Do the feminists complain about that as being a discrimination against men? I can't remember seeing an article with feminists campaigning about discrimination against men. And, men tend not to complain when it happens.
Anyway, this post is not to be taken seriously, it's just an idle post.
