Perhaps what you should be seeing is the forest and not the individual trees. It was not too long ago that women in the west did not have the vote, I'm sure they would not have been allowed cell phones if they existed back then. Now however they have equality with men in the eyes of the law and are in the main treated as such. Yes there are some areas where improvements can still be made but would you prefer to be protesting for women to have the right to make their own decisions (as opposed to them being made by their husbands, fathers or brothers) or that pharmaceutical trials paid more attention to gender differences?
- M_Grey 10y agoIs there some reason the answer isn't, "Both"?
- celticninja 10y agoThe point is that in the West we have made significant improvements in the equal treatment of women and we are continuing to improve. Yes it should be both but to compare the treatment of women in Muslim countries to the suggestions you made is disingenuous at best.
- M_Grey 10y agoThe comment I responded to: "It would be unthinkable for modern western countries to segregate as described in the article." My response was hardly disingenuous, and I don't appreciate that characterization.
