I sometimes wonder if it is a generation thing. You younger woman didn't have to fight for your freedoms. I watched my mother fight for hers! She needed and deserved a divorce, but couldn't get it due to the fact that she was a woman and couldn't support herself. As a result, I fought hard to be financially independent. I have succeeded -- which is very nice as I can state with total honesty that my love for Lebell is a choice, not a "have to."
Today's woman are so much luckier. They have a lot less "stereotyping" put on them. They have more opportunities and do not need to lower themselves to the "male standards" put on them by the few.
Woman definately deserve the same respect, pay, opportunities, etc. as men. Those are the key words -- as men. If we don't want men to treat us like sex objects (and let's face it, sometimes we all like to be treated that way -- well, at least I do) then we need to not act like sex objects and we need to treat men the way we want to be treated. I've heard plenty young ladies call my sons great "eye candy." It can be a two way road.
