    Sorry for the late reply:

    Of course, if women are not out, they would not get harassed in public. Those principles are way way too basic and historical to be applicable to any part of this world. But policing is anyways happening, so keeping women inside the 4 walls, will hardly save money.

    Honestly, I would split it evenly amongst both children. What would you do with your kids..?

    3) What is it that you don't understand about the climate theory?
    1. Yes, I have asked young girls what they want to become when they grow up. To be honest some of them have answered: House Wife. Will not lie to you. But a lot also said stuff like: want to do an MBA and work in an organization, some said a doctorate, scientist, government service. Most of them did what they wanted.
    2. Is not that same for men. They are either answering to people at the work place, else in the bindings of the state (government). I think all nations are like that. One cannot just do want they want to do, and have to be in societal / governmental normals. What would be an example of Social Freedom, which is curbed in the West. Will help me understand better.
    3. It just sounds so dumb. Sorry. Not applicable. Probably in the paleolithic age, yes, but not now. Anywhere.

    Read the article. It was good and data driven, which is good. Thanks. My comments on this would be: More men lost jobs vs. women, and now men are being hired more. There is a stigma around hiring, no matter what mechanisms gender bias have been put in. Could it be that, women are going out less to find jobs, and being the home makers. Sacrifice. . Ya, kill me.

    These are production fields. Be it a service or a non-direct usage product still output is given. It does take brains/time/effort to produce a literally work of writing be it design or type. Clothes, I can understand, will collapse, if the economy collapses. But that is also hypothetical. Women do work on shop floors also. See semi-conductor and motherboard manufacturing units. Women are doing QC/PCB soldering/packaging. So they are out their in the sweat shops, physically doing work.

    Formatting the below, so it is easier to read:

    That was just a bad choice. But the women's case was taken as an "example"; not generic to a group. But that is what you are showing too. So I would agree. But at the bottom of the article a man also goes through the same predicament. Would you not think, this is a institution and loan shark nexus which is hounding higher secondary education in the west..? I would put it at that.

    Agree with the article, but not the issue you are using it to support. This is again a clear case of bad lending and incorrect decisions. I would say a "mini-me" version of Lehman Brothers.

    A bad decision, which never paid off. But Mary, tell me honestly -- would not be men making these errors too. I will agree to what ever answer you give here, and not argue back...! It is just a comment on my comment, which I seek. Thanks.

    I agree to those prices, and they make sense. Regarding the link, is not Shane a man. What were you trying to say..?

    Again, how is it adapted to women, that men can not cope up. I am really confused here, cause you have mentioned this over and over again. The concept interests me, but I cannot grasp it. A further corollary would help me here.

    This data is difficult to pull up. But I found a nice tool on the web. I cannot give the snapshot, cause it runs dynamically. But would suggest you to try it out.
    1. Remove all the filter from the left, but keep all options for diversity enabled.
    2. Keep everything for Degrees enabled.
    3. Select 4 universities, and click on DEMOGRAPHICS on the output, when you get it.

    I ran it for: Cornell, Harvard, UCLA, and Yale. US citizenship was 92%+ for all 4.

    I will not argue here further Mary. It digresses from the topic. Really do not want to discuss sex and its sale. It is not pertinent to this topic. But dowry is not there as a concept in the West. Or you saying, theoretically, men now marry -- and check the education grade of the female before marriage. But that always happened.

    Quote Originally Posted by Mary View Post

So a woman from a good background and with education will probably have an intellectual dowry. While a woman from a lesser background and with education will not, and will have to pay the full dowry in cash.
    As I said, even high castes give dowry. In fact the most.

    Therefore it is more logical for a Western woman to invest in pole dancing classes, than in a college degree.
    Any sane man will choose woman A. In his fantasy at night, he would probably choose woman B.

    Even a woman can get a job just as fast. Yes, in between if she becomes a single mother and cannot support and take care of the child, that is her fault. How would not having had an education been helpful here. She would not have been married anyways. She would still have borne a child without marriage and the problem remains the same.

    I think any sane person would do that.

    Agreed.

    And she would have less money to support her child. Getting an education does bring money.

    Marriage is meaningless!! Simple as that. I also disagree with this quote that you posted as I believe in everybody being able to reach their full potential, which this practice clearly denies women.

    This is so very wrong in so very many ways

    Are you really stating that the entire purpose for a woman's life is reproduction?
    I am very sorry that you would see another human being from such a limited perspective.
