So I take it you believe in kharma then? Anyway, I think women have things handed to them in a silver platter, especially when they are pretty. Schools are designed around their learning capabilities, not men, and lets be honest, if a beautiful woman and a guy were applying for a job, if the boss was a male or lesbian he/she would totally swing towards hiring the pretty lady. Pretty soon women are going to run everything!!!!
Maybe that is becoming the case
now, as I have already said, but that certainly wasn't the case even a couple generations back. Though even now, women aren't paid equally to a man for the same job and that's not even taking into account what's going on worldwide outside of the West. And did you see that list
Bruinrab posted in the other thread about, I think, the most powerful women of the world? Not for nothing, but they weren't all a bucket of pretty.

Oh yeah, I forgot me and my contemporaries are responsible for the sins of prior generations. Please accept my apologies on their behalf.
Men have oppressed women throughout all of history. What did you honestly expect to happen? That it would forever continue? How is it the fault of women that they have been the victims of oppression for centuries? From being blamed for Adams sin, to being considered inferior to men, to not having legal rights, to not having the right to an education, to being buried alive, to having to request permission to leave their home, to being married before even hitting a double digit, to not be allowed to divorce, to not being allowed to talk to men outside their clan, to being the victims of honor killings, etc. etc. etc.- I mean c'mon. The list of atrocities committed against women is absurdly long.
True, it's not a pleasant thought of an entire gender becoming close to extinction, if not extinct, but I'm not going to sit here and front like I didn't see it coming. Again, you reap what you sow. Do your Hadith's not speak of the drastic outnumbering that will occur?
Girls have cooties because they contracted it from men, and hence all men are evil because they are cootie carriers.
