Stuff I Drew On My Laptop.

...stuff I drew using the trackpad on my laptop for canv.as.

My only argument is one of biological fact.

The piece opens with these words “Nothing infuriates me more than when a man says that men are stronger than women like it is a biological fact. You know what? That is bullshit.”  It then goes on to describe how the reinforcement of gender roles is the reason that women are perceived as physically weaker (I can’t think of a better word.) than men.  I was simply pointing out that it is, actually, a biological fact.

Are there “jacked” women?  Of course there are, but how many of them do you think got that way without assistance of steroids or hormone treatments?  Of the ones that didn’t, how many do you believe don’t produce an untypically high amount of testosterone?  Do I believe that women have an equal/superior amount of drive and effort as men do?  Absolutely!  There is no question.  

Furthermore, the suggestion that men should attempt to procreate with women that they are not sexually attracted to in order to force-evolve women into men is absurd.  Like, comic-book, super-villain absurd.  (Disclaimer: At least that’s how I read that last bit.)

things of all sorts: gender

Nothing infuriates me more than when a man says that men are stronger than women like it is a biological fact. You know what? That is bullshit. The playing field isn’t level. You know why? Because women are taught to be weak and helpless from birth. Do most fathers teach…

I hate to be this guy, but you do know that this is drivel, right?  It has nothing to do with gender roles, and everything to do with the amount of the hormone, testosterone, that a body produces when a child is developing.  Men typically have more muscle fibers than women do.  That is a fact.  It’s like this; say that you have two ropes.  One rope is spun from forty fibers, and one is spun from sixty.  Which of those ropes is going to be the stronger, more durable rope?  As far as the testosterone being “bred out” of women over the course of human-kind’s existence…  Why is there a difference in the bone structure and size (differences attributed to the production of gender specific hormone production)  of the earliest men and women?
