    Really you can give all the opinions you want on which is the superior society but let's look at the proof. Let's compare china with america. In china women are traditionally feminine. They are mostly looking for a guy to love and have a family with. When a girl in china get's divorced her life is ruined. She has no financial support and has no prospects of finding another husband. The result is a very low divorce rate and in turn (assuming they aren't starving) they are happy.

I'm hesitant to reply to this, because I'm sure you're a troll who is just fucking with us. But if, in fact, this is a serious reply, then I don't think you know enough professional Chinese women. I work with a lot of them who are doctors, scientists and pharmacists, ambitious, high earners who want to be respected as professionals. Also, on the lower end, many of the factory workers in China are female.

And this:

    First of all I have a problem with the idea that women are or have been oppressed. It's an insult to my intelligence to tell me that women (at least the lucky ones) were oppressed by having all their needs payed for and being able to fulfill their maternal instincts free of danger or hard work, while men were out doing heavy labor and risking their lives.

This is where I know you're fucking with us. You know that spousal rape wasn't even a crime in the US in many states until the 70's?

Yeah, I left this alone because I also thought that it must be intentional trolling. Nice reply though. One thing I would add to it is that any man worth his salt that I know would eventually get bored as hell with one of those mannequins. Strong, intelligent and creative women turn me on far more than what he is suggesting is appealing. But yeah, troll.

You want a man then. Physically you may be attracted to women but psychologically you want a man.

You appear to be both physically and physiologically attracted to men. It's ok america is into that lately.

This is why i only replied to kakfe. I'm sure there are professional Chinese women, however the majority are not. On my visa application to china one of the "professions" listed was housewife. That would never be an option in america.

Also spousal rape is an oxymoron. I know you've probably drank so much of the feminist kool aid that that statement probably blows your mind.
