Mist Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Baby Kiwi [/i] [B][color=crimson] Women do not want power the same way that men do. [/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [color=red][size=1]Who says? A lot of women want power, and through the ages, have had power. How do you know what kind of power all women want? You can't really speak for all of us chicks; just yourself and those you know. I think it is quite possible for women to want power the same way men do. Also, talking about how ALL women solve their problems was just a bunch of steroe-typing. Men also talk and try to comprimise too. Anyway, just my opinion; don't shoot me.

PiroMunkie Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 [color=indigo]Meh, perhaps a better solution to the reproduction dilemma is that women eradicated men from this planet and they merely use, and clone, the semen from sperm banks where female scientists tamper with the chromosomes to make sure only an X chromosome is sent over. That defies no laws of nature what-so-ever. :p Anyway, sure there'd be wars. Just different kinds of war. I mean, like Cera said, if two guys were to get in a fight, first words would be exchanged, then fists after that. Maybe later that year those two guys would resolve their differences and maybe not be friends, but more like aquaintances who trust each other to some extent, but check with others to make sure theother guy isn't going behind the other's back (like the U.S.A. and Russia). Girls on the other hand.. Nothing but spite for another female if one should even so much give another a weird look. They'll use oral warfare by spreading rumors, gossip, and secrets. Phsyical warfare by way of clawing, pulling hair, etc. And the worst of all, a type of warfare both women and men use, Chemical warfare. Girls don't use nuclear radiation and such things though. They'll use perfume, body lotion, moisturizer, hair spray.. you name it! And when used in combination with other chemicals this can become very deadly. One might suffocate in the pleasant fumes of Raspberry Peaches, while the chemicals penetrate their soft, moist skin that smells of Lilac. I think we're just lucky with all these spiteful acts women will do, most don't have the physical strength to back them up, which is probably why they resort to such atrocities to begin with. A fearful thoughts indeed.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sara Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 I get what you're saying, Kiwi. ;) I agree that the wars probably wouldn't be about power--they'd be about revenge, and spite, and plain ole' hate. I'm not saying we don't have wars about those things right now, mind--but there'd be a lot more of them if the world were controlled by--quote, unquote--the gentler sex. And it is a good conversation to have--I've had it with some of my buddies before, and I've seen it once or twice in forums. It's always better IRL, because you get dynamic discussion, instead of people trying to be brief and stand firm in their first post. And a lot of women [i]do[/i] want power--and weild it well, in a quieter sense. You ever see a guy acting like a little lapdog at his girlfriend's feet? :smirk: You don't have to make headlines to be in charge or something--or someone. I also believe that if there's a position of power open, someone is going to fill it. And someone else is going to want it. And now, instead of all-out power wars, we get the nasty backbiting high school girl girl scenario again. Of course, if the only people left on earth were like [i]me[/i], the world would be perfect.

We haven't had a female president for the same reason we don't have an Oriental, or Hispanic, or African American in office. Society wants to stick to what they consider the norm, which for Americans means a Caucasian male. But women could claim the power if they wanted to. Who do you really think wears the pants in the Clinton household? Obviously not Bill as we saw with the Lewinski controversy. Women are just as capable of doing the things men are capable of. They can be lawyers, doctors, rulers, and even soldiers. There would still be war since humans, men or women, are imperfect and are prone to do foolish things even fight each other. I think there would be more backstabbing. This is a gradual thing (arguments, to treachery, to backstabbing, to gaining allegiances, to actual fighting). I mean look at how fast a man's decision (GWB) brought conflict between America and Afghanistan in the wake of 9/11. But for women, the conflicts would start later and last longer, plus the world would probably take longer to heal. And yes perfumes and shampoos are as deadly a weapon as any. But nothing is scarier that press-on nails and weaves. Press-ons can reach almost any length and cut through anything. And don't ever pull out a woman's weave. That's like calling a black guy the n word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 I think women should control all things political, anyway. Women intelligent enough to hold high positions of political power are generally peaceful, for the most part, anyway. -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I [i]have[/i] read quite a few posts that say that the wars would be of the backstabbing sort...because all women are petty with their arguments against one another? Isn't that making a rather large assumption about women? I, for one, don't hold long grudges. I don't take part in b[i][/i]itch fights, I don't get [b]mad[/b] over stupid thing, and I know a lot of girls who are the same as I.

Mist Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 [color=red][size=1]She's right. I struggle to hold grudges, and don't take part in the "best friend vs.bestfriend" fights, that usually end at the end of the time.

Juu Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Well, one 'war' issue would be that we wouldn't be killing each other for the cute guy in the second row. ^_- but I think it wouldn't be any fun.... 1. No flirting T.T -heh... *cough* unless you're a lez... o.o' 2. No 'girls only' clubs...... O.o 3.

Chaos Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Of course there would be war! Women are human too, and have human emotions (The last time I checked, that is). If anything, women are more emotional then men. So yeah. War would still be accouring. Probably moreso than today. I mean, I've seen fights over clothes that had to be broken up by about a dozen of those Rent-A-Cops. So imagine if Russia and American leaders went shopping together. Eee... Nuclear war!

Jesus Chicken Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 I think there would be conflicts and wars, but once a month there would be a civil war in every country... figure it out. There would be alot more cooking shows and such compared to footy on friday nights. Everything would change and alot of history and differrent opinions would be lost. There would be many things forfiet due to such a strange predicament. Oh well I doubt we will ever see such a place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 [color=red]Of course their would be wars!! Women can also be very aggresive(sometimes more) than males. I am sure their would be peace in the world for awhile. But, conflict is always going to happen and will. Sounds kind of like The Chaos Theory, right? So yes, eventually their would be war.

Kent Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 yea, there would still be wars but they would be different. i dont think raw combat battles would occur as much. it would all be clinton style, lobbing missiles from long range. of course maybe the women would also think of a way to end all the wars, girls have amazing persuasion (sp?) abilities.
