I'm not sure that is argument for less equality per se, rather that you think the court should have ruled differently in some cases. Unless you would advocate laws that give women additional rights to use stronger force than men by definition, in which case I would disagree.

As a flipside example everyone has an obligation to pay whatever taxes they owe, that obligation is the same for everyone, in other words it is a criminal offence to avoid paying taxes regardless of whether you are poor or rich. However the amount of tax you have to pay will depend on your income level, as you would not expect a millionaire to pay the same amount of tax as somebody on minimum wage.



I am not arguing anything. Merely supplying an example that fit the parameters you provided. That's all. I am baffled as to why you are trying to turn it into an argument.


Your example doesn't fit the parameters discussed.


I think it does. If you don't think so, move on.


This is the problem I have with feminists, all opinion but not argument. But ok, this topic is dead.


For the record: I do not view myself as a feminist. Nor do I know why you feel some need to label me and clearly hang your personal baggage and judgement on me over this brief exchange.
