I am independent and single . oh , You do happen to be aware that there are
actually independent single women who have their own jobs with
career prospects and their own properties without the need of a man
in the world, right?
So explain to me which part of my independence as a woman have been
subjugated ? I would love to hear that line of logic from you since
I actually am not aware of being discriminated against because I am
a woman.
that's being facetious. IF that's your definition of being
nondiscriminated against/no gender apartheid, then saudi doesn't
have one as many women work in saudi arabia as well as other arab
countries. you only have to look at female labour participation
rates. well in fact if you compare the chart with all other
countries of the world, what you find is that neither do western
countries dominate nor do rich countries.
point being, it doesn't tell you anything.
why are there fewer women in parliament, in policy making, top
doctors, scientists, policemen, civil servants, armed forces
personnel etc etc in singapore? no gender discrimination
perhaps.
why are there separate sex sports teams in not only singapore but
all around the world for heavy sports? like weightlifting,
athletics, bodybuilding, football, hockey etc? no gender
discrimination (not that it's illogical, gender discrimination
makes sense mate.
I live in Australia. Australians give out their opinions freely.
Some supported the death sentence and some don't. Freedom of
expression , in case you have no inkling of what it all
means.
If that iman wants to enter a country and live there, he follows
the culture and NOT impose his VALUES on the SOCIETY. He can follow
his own values as long as he does not make stupid remarks openly
because those remarks can bite him in the back.
If he can't take what he terms as raw meat , I wonder why he didn't
choose Saudi Arabia as a choice place of immigration. The women
there are covered from head to toe.
Human muscles are hidden under skin - unless you have x - ray eyes
- I don't think he meant it that way.
it's funny you have no inkling what you're mumbling about. you
talk about freedom of speech in australia, YET in same vein
ridicule the imam for his exercise of freedom of speech. mate if
you can't live with that you'd better go back to singapore i
suppose.
oh, a factual error, the imam in question afaik did NOT impose his
values on aborigines of australia. it was the englishmen who did
so, i think you're serving the right advice to wrong people. unless
the imam was english himself, you should be telling the english
invaders of australia to go back to england or adapt original
aboriginal cultures instead of imposing their english values on
aborigines.
The History of Malaya says differently about my nice theory.
Malaccan history as well . So are you saying History is a
liar?
Oh so how would you label those who did the bali bombings ? Heroes
no doubt in your terms.
now you're repeating the same error. it was YOU who said south
east asian matrilineal society tended to provide "moderate"
whatever that may mean religion as opposed to let's say middle
eastern ones. my question was bali bombings among others, will they
spark the same reaction from likes of you as they're doing right
now? apparently yes.
That is your generalisation of sg women .
As I recall living and working in Singapore did not require me to
wear skimpier clothing . Is that your view that women have to show
more skin than men at the workplace in Singapore and elsewhere?
That is rather moronic.
kindly attach a pic of what singaporean women/men wear as office
attire. if you want i can do so.
Most women have to balance work and family life . Politicians
have to garner the wholesome image of being a family man or woman.
It is a choice. Heard of house husbands? They do exists you
know.
If a man goes naked waste down , he gets labelled a pervert and he
gets charged . He might even get caning!
So explain to me how is it so unequal now?
you seem to have a penchant for being inane it appears. i was
talking about women going topless as opposed to men in singapore.
obviously the woman who goes topless will be castigated but not the
man (in public). but both will be castigated for going "bottomless"
(lol). that means there is an extra burden on the woman in
singapore and oz, uk, usa & anglo countries.
House Husbands - rare but you got some going on
Education - women are being educated more and more. Last time a
woman was expected to marry and be a wife and mother . Now a woman
can aspire for so much more. So we have yet to see the effects
there.
Skimpy clothing - it is a woman's choice if she wishes to don them
on or not.
[quote]
saudi women also are getting educated more and more. dont' be
narrow minded to think ONLY you, singaporeans or whoever follow
anglo customs get educated the rest are not. most of developing
world that enjoys boom are getting educated, and yes more and
more.
"this time" also a woman is expected to be a wife and mother. i
dont think that has changed unless some biological innovation takes
place (like cloning perhaps, that's drawbacks too though). no
wonder singapore alongside so many western nations are facing
population crunch which will depress their economies, burden their
working population, and create social tension. as such sg govt and
other govts are urging for higher birth rates. and geez, women
still have to be mothers for children to be born (as men have to be
fathers) whether wives or not!
