Equality For Women
Really?I often wonder if our fair ladies realise what they stand to lose in attaining equality. Think about it. Nobody to offer his seat on a bus or a train anymore, nobody to open doors, and nobody offering to carry parcels. These are just a few of the perks they stand to lose.
I can still understand why men would want equality for women. We're just want to be done with those silly gestures like giving up seats, opening doors and carrying parcels but I cannot for the life of me understand why any woman - unless totally insane - would strive for equality.
It does not make any sense. Hell, I would never relinquish the upper hand if I had it.
I'm including a pair of rosy glasses for those who only see the bad things in life. There is so much fun in life if you just look at it in the right way.

Equality is not just about politeness, it is about s*xual abuse, wages/promotion in the workplace and much more. To narrow it down to opening doors is exactly why women need equality.

It must be terrible to go through life with a long face .
If strives for equality is reached, it means that talking about their feelings and seeking help would be eradicated, and they would have to increase their murders of their partners and ex partners by at least 200% to match the rates of women killed by male partners and ex partners each year?
If I were a woman I'd say no thanks and just pass.
My grandmother used to say that one should be careful of what you wish for because you may just get something too big to handle.
I wonder how women would fare in a divorce court when treated the way men are treated at the present time.
As I said in the blog, if I had the upper hand I would never relinquish voluntary; nevermind campaigning for it.

You can't have equal rights for women without having equal rights for everyone else, by default.
Why do you think that equal rights is too big for women, people of colour, differently abled, LGBTQ+, etc. people to handle? Like we're not real people, nor equal to the task?
Why is it inconceivable that women might see how everyone has much to gain from equality?
Any of us in an advantagious position where others are subjugated has a price to pay. It's not healthy for anyone.
I scanned my blog and I cannot find any reference to people of colour, disabled people or LGBTQ+ so I must assume that you are on the wrong blog. Failing that, you must be trying to hijack or derail my blog. Please don't for I don't do it to you.

I'm sorry about that, but think we're all up to the task of living a fair and equal life whatever we have to give and take. To think otherwise is unfair, unequal and discriminatory by default.
Does the sjw in you have to be surgically removed? Asking for a friend of mine.
Glad it's this dude cos he will laugh it off.

At least I have faith that men are.
A week or so later I was following a woman into a shop. When she reached the door she stopped and waited. Apparently that was my que to rush forward and open the door for her.
It seems we're all having difficulty transitioning to equality or wokeness or feminism or whatever it's called.
I bet that on balance society will not be better because of this.
Bring back the days when men could be gentlemen and women could be ladies.
Push the door open with your hand and partially pass through the doorway.
Look over your shoulder on the door side and wait for the person behind you to put their hand on the door, ensuring it doesn't swing shut in their face.
It's only necessary to open the door like a hotel porter if the person behind you is pushing a baby buggy, is in a wheelchair, is carrying too much to hold the door themselves, is too infirm to hold the door open themselves, etc.
Whilst holding the door open like a porter, don't stare at the person you are holding the door for. Allow them to initiate small talk if they feel comfortable, otherwise politely reply 'you're welcome' to their polite 'thank you' and be on your way.
This etiquette is appropriate for anyone regardless of gender, or any other group belonging.
It may not always be obvious that someone can't open the door themselves due to a physical condition, especially if the doors are large, heavy and/or self-closing like a fire door. If you offer help, a brisk and slightly destracted demeanor is a useful tool to avoid the impression of an ulterior motive, like theft, or s*xual harassment.
Your Sunday must be as boring as you.
Give me a minute and I'll try and juice it up for you.
Unfortunately ... I must say this.
@ Jack,
My question to you is why on this earth do you feel so threatened by Cat and others, is it that his blogs are beyond your dull comprehension or maybe its that you are much too dumb to see that your pathetic comments are not wanted on his blogs?
I'm surmising that bloggers like Cat don't blog to purely to suck in your absolute brilliance and supreme knowledge on every subject under the sun, they do it for self satisfaction and also for the not so intelligent ones like me, surely you of all people can see this? If you have such strong opinions abbout colour, feminism and other crap you want to get off your chest please write a blog about it and defend your stance, whatever it is.
Stop trying to derail blogs with your passive aggressive know it all comments which only show your ignorance and stupidity. Do your blog/s and lets see how interesting they turn out to be. I'll even support you on that

I actually did as you said but when I looked behind me I noticed three young children had joined her so I stood back against the wall as she hooshed the children through.
Hope this helps.
@OP and as to homosexual, racial, immigrant, minority rights and equality, whether you like it or not, if you raise equality you will almost certainly find that coloured women, immigrant women are at the very bottom of the prejudice heap. Poor you, stealing your thread you think?

My comment wasn't directed at anyone in particular, but inspired by the discussion.
The topic of opening doors has come up so many times over the years and so many men seem to struggle with it, that I wrote an outline of current etiquettes that we can all partake in regardless of gender, or any other difference.
The biggest lie women went like crazy for is that they should behave like men.
It has nothing to do with equality.
As for payment, well, you get what you've earned.
I also disagree with equal payment, especially in sports, it's down to how much money you generate and not how much you deserve, even though women get a bigger percentage of the revenue than men.
The more masculine image of the modern woman don't attract the desire of men to remember what chivalry is.
The sick believe that is wildly promoted is that women can do anything without men.
No, they can't and they don't want. It is too much.
But if a woman's attitude towards men is "I don't need you!" .
Well the man will go for the woman who does.
A woman who does leave him be... a man.
What goes around comes around.

I spent a great day with some friends only to find that you and your accomplice had littered my blog with your garbage. You should make some friends so you'd have something to do on Sundays. Or get a boyfriend. At least then you won't have to stalk people on the web.

He'll, I did not know that opening a door is such a complicated business. I wonder... Perhaps if she is not too busy she can instruct us on how to close a door in proper fashion.

Thanks for a very constructive comment and I agree with everything you said, however it not quite the response I expected. I wrote this blog very tongue in the cheek and expected it to be read like that. It appears that people find it hard to laugh at themselves. No offence meant. Just heckling a bit.
Now you too try the paternal condescension on someone clearly more literate and intelligent.
Get a boyfriend? What, someone like you? Accomplice? Jeez chum - how do you say paranoia in Afrikaans? aaah dieselfde woord dasselbe Wort.

I guess I have become a bit humourless when it comes to men-women topics.
I have a son, I am on my toes about what he may drag through the door one day

You must not dabble with Afrikaans. Our words are easily misinterpreted. Just recently 'wit kant' meaning 'white side' was mistaken for 'white c**t' but I guess you know all about it

You're just making an excuse because you never thought through the topic.
