Originally posted by outfctrl What do you think if Hilary is elected would happen when things fell apart in any sphere, her husband would be counseled as to what HE thinks about impending calamities, not only HER, who's the elected leader of the free world in the first place. It would be a co-Presidency. The real question is if the mass public would accept a woman president. I think the answer is no. I think many, many people are firm in believing that the United States should remain patriarchal, it's all about image.
That is merely you assuming. You don't have any kind of proof to back up your claims.
To some extent all Presidencies are co-presidencies. Alot of examples of woman pulling strings to acheive greaters ends are apparent thru all of history. What should be noted is its her right to be a President. Whether or not Out likes it is his opinion and I applaud him for voicing it even if I disaggree or aggree. Im nuetral so generally speaking politics has little bearing on my life direction. Heck I barely even notice politics effects on me tell I go to the gas station hehe. The reality is it remains to be seen if a woman can acheive political cohesion in a male dominated political system. She would also be as a immense risk of assasination. We will see how the political race shapes up. I frankly dont see her being voted into office. Not because shes a woman. Rather because of her policy.

Don't even bother responding to him, he just makes ridiculous claims to get perverse entertainment from the flames that proceed. He may or may not even believe this, he's saying it for 2 reasons I can think of.
1. Just to watch people go nuts and flame and what not because he enjoys it.
2. To foment a nice mature discussion about a soon-to-be controversial issue.
If the latter is true then he still should be ignored for presenting the topic in such a shitty way, if the former is true, he's a troll who should be ignored.
So thus, either way, don't even bother with this thread.

There is one biological factor that would prevent a woman from fulfilling the office of the presidency - estrogen. It is physically proven that because of the higher levels of estrogen in females than those levels in males, they are physically weaker than men. Not only are there differences in the muscular and skeletal structures of the body, but there are also mental differences due to the elevated levels in estrogen.
Think about this: Although some women are rational during their menstrual cycle, not all of them are.
The chemical imbalances during this time have several side effects from cramps to becoming total bitches who crave chocolate. Along with the mental side effects of the increased estrogen comes the maternal instinct that all women have.
The maternal instincts also would prevent a woman from raising her family and giving the oval office her undying attention.
Even male politicians cant take care of their families while in office.
Thats why they have their wives and/or they ship their kids off to boarding schools to let someone else raise their children.
That way their minds are worry-free and they can get their job done.

It is a controversial issue Cyro, thats why I brought it up. If you cant handle it, say so and stop blasting me.
There is nothing worng in what I said. Allot of men think that way, even women. Some women believe that a man should hold offices of power and that women should stay home. Some dont.
I am not the one with an issue...........YOU ARE! So quit whining.
GASP! I agree with outfctrl and his flamebait! Although I don't think so because emotions or any other such ridiculous nonsense. I don't think it would be good because many countries still run on sexism, many of which in the Middle East where alot of attention is at the moment. Diplomacy could be damaged because some twisted fundamentalist muslim won't talk to a woman who isn't his wife or whatever other weird gibberish that the psycho branch of Islam thinks this week.

The problem is in your presentation and not on the topic, I think it is an interesting topic, but don't present it in such a barbaric way ignorant way. Furthermore, this is something you wrote in your other thread.

Actually, I found my original post on another forum and cracked up. I wanted to see how all you would react. Those of you that know me, know I am not a hardcrore Christian, butI do believe in Christian values, not to that extreme. I found that comment while reading responses to this:
Would you let your daughter date Mohammed?
Let's take Jesus: 33-years-old, still lives with Mom. But the guy knows a trade, likes children and seems pleasant enough. The hair we can live with.
Buddha: Fat. Bald. Sleeps a lot. Again, though, nice personality. Used to be prince, which is a definite plus.
Krishna: She brought him home for Thanksgiving her first year at college. The one with the eyeliner, the orange clothes and the flute. OK once you get to know him.
Mohammed: Swarthy. Illiterate. Kills people. Basically we're talking O.J. without the Heisman. Even if you could overlook the whole nine-year-old girl thing, the guy is a definite "no".
Trust me, I am not a crazy person just twisted at times....."
Unless, I read this incorrectly, you post shit that may or may no be your views just to see how people react, does this not make you a troll?
True, there isnt' anything wrong with what you said, i believe/agree with freedom of speech with my own personal caveat of presentation and thoughtfullness. I have no problems with anyone saying anything as long as they try to back up what they say with evidence or comprehensive thought. I at times make mistakes, we all do, but your original post is lacking anything of substance and may or may not even be true and genuine.
You are right I have an issue with the way you present and the way you post, it isn't genuine, how do we know you even mean it, why even bother with a troll like yourself?
If you're interested in fomenting discussion, then make a semi-intelligent post. Then again, you are probably being controversial on purpose to get people interested in the topic. I don't have problems with that, just present your argument in a better way and don't make posts like the one you made that is highlighted iin green that indicate that you're just bullshitting.
In reference to the topic: I'd prefer a woman in office, I think she would be more immune to actions based on ego and bullshit and may be able to understand the various differences in people and the various repurcussions of the actions. Perhaps a woman may view things from a different angle than men since they, at one time, may have felt oppressed and/or treated unfairly.
Also, a woman may feel she has something to prove for the eons of forced inferiority complexes living with men, and thus might actually concentrate on doing a good job. Let's say higher motivation.

There have been some great Female Presidents and Prime Ministers over the years in the world. I think that it has little to do with the make of a women, it has more to do with the person themselves, and who they are and what they can handle and what they can do. You may think that a female president would be a bad thing, that she would not be able to do the job well, you are right some females will not be able to do the job right, but some maybe able to, we dont know, the United States has never had a female president. In other countries they have had great female leaders and some bad ones too, but it is no different then a man. In the United States for example, all the presidents have been men, but it is also a fact that the vast majority of those presidents were well frankly shitty at their job; they did a piss poor job. You can not compare women in the role of President in the United States because none have been president, so you dont really know if they would good at it or not, nor do you know if they would be any better then a man doing the job.

If it came right down to it and a woman was going to run for president, it depends on the woman. If there were an American Margarette Thatcher running, yes. Condi Rice, maybe. Hillary Clinton, definitely not!
On the lighter side, If a woman became President, we wouldn't have to pay her as much.

You are one abrasive SOB. I believe you to be completely wrong in both of your little statements.
1) "National Greatness" is completely subjective and your "Greatness" is other people's "Mediocraty" and vice versa.
2) The fact that we can discuss a women potentially becoming president shows that our nation is experienceing what is called in many circles, "growth." The nation is already in deep trouble and it has nothing to do with women. If we were a weak country and did not fight the fact that we are failing with some of our current policies then we would be in trouble. But the last elections show that America does care and it is looking to change. With change comes growth.
I would personally have no issues at all in voting for a female president. I do not vote based on party lines and I do note vote based on who has what chromosomes. If a female has a better stance on issues in my mind and I believe that she will follow through with them, then she gets my vote without question.
And two other points that I will comment on and I don't know who exactly said them:
1) Whoever said that in the case of Hillary, all decisions would be run through Bill who would then have the final say, is completely blind to the fact of how many decisions have been made by the wives of many of the past presidents. Please look into the lives of Elenor Roosevelt and Lady Bird Johnson, just to name the obvious cases.
2) Someone mentioned that there would be more assassination attempts on a female president. And you would know this from... what, past experience. The Secret Service would still do their job and do it well. I am sure the agents would be as willing to take a bullet for a male as a female, it is their job.
I am not saying that Hillary is or should be the next president as I have not listened to her much. Especially not living in NY. But I will say, a female should have just as much right as a male for the presidency.

I am not a hate monger. That is just my view. I never said anything derogatory against women. So where do you get hate monger from?
You are just looking to make me mad, but it wont work. The reason it wont work, is that I look at the source.

Since when did the physical of a president matter? Oh right..it never has. Think about this: Although some women are rational during their menstrual cycle, not all of them are. And NOT all men are even rational, ever. The chemical imbalances during this time have several side effects from cramps to becoming total bitches who crave chocolate. Along with the mental side effects of the increased estrogen comes the maternal instinct that all women have.Im not a bitch when Im on my cycle. I also hate chocolet. Actualy if you do your research correctly, the only main side effect of a menstral cycle is the pain cramps. Most woman hardl'y under go any mental change at all. And if one does, it is hardly noticable and does not interfer with her way of thinking. The maternal instincts also would prevent a woman from raising her family and giving the oval office her undying attention.Unless she does not have a family to raise to begin with. Or her kids are already out of the house. ^^ Even male politicians cant take care of their families while in office.Duh Thats why they have their wives and/or they ship their kids off to boarding schools to let someone else raise their children.I dont' see a point in this argument of yours. That way their minds are worry-free and they can get their job done.Same as above.

You are one abrasive SOB. I believe you to be completely wrong in both of your little statements.
1) "National Greatness" is completely subjective and your "Greatness" is other people's "Mediocraty" and vice versa.
2) The fact that we can discuss a women potentially becoming president shows that our nation is experienceing what is called in many circles, "growth." The nation is already in deep trouble and it has nothing to do with women. If we were a weak country and did not fight the fact that we are failing with some of our current policies then we would be in trouble. But the last elections show that America does care and it is looking to change. With change comes growth.
I would personally have no issues at all in voting for a female president. I do not vote based on party lines and I do note vote based on who has what chromosomes. If a female has a better stance on issues in my mind and I believe that she will follow through with them, then she gets my vote without question.
And two other points that I will comment on and I don't know who exactly said them:
1) Whoever said that in the case of Hillary, all decisions would be run through Bill who would then have the final say, is completely blind to the fact of how many decisions have been made by the wives of many of the past presidents. Please look into the lives of Elenor Roosevelt and Lady Bird Johnson, just to name the obvious cases.
2) Someone mentioned that there would be more assassination attempts on a female president. And you would know this from... what, past experience. The Secret Service would still do their job and do it well. I am sure the agents would be as willing to take a bullet for a male as a female, it is their job.
I am not saying that Hillary is or should be the next president as I have not listened to her much. Especially not living in NY. But I will say, a female should have just as much right as a male for the presidency.

if it looks like a redneck and sounds like a redneck.... must be a redneck.
I can't speak for outfctrl but I was raised a redneck and I will always be a redneck. I'm not going to tell you all my views on race and religion because this site doesn't allow free speach, so I'll just leave it to your imagination.
Umm, crap post got deleted. Let me redo it.
Basically, if you presented your ideas respectfully that people wouldn't mind how you posted. But if you present it like an overzealous ignorant hate monger then I can see it being deleted. So just present it and the reasons respectfully and then it won't get deleted.
You'll be flamed to hell and back I'm sure, but it won't be deleted.

Yeah right.
I sleep with a pillow under my gun.
I am not a hate monger. That is just my view. I never said anything derogatory against women. So where do you get hate monger from?
You are just looking to make me mad, but it wont work. The reason it wont work, is that I look at the source.

I wasn't talking to you, nor was hate-monger implied to your posts. I was making a point to MMO_man that he can present his ideas respectfully and i don't think they'll get deleted, however, if he presented it like a hate-monger they probably will get banned.
In no way was I referring to you, nor to anybody, i was just saying what gets banned may be more on how what is being said, then what is actually being said.
I'll re-read my initial post to see where I could have been ambiguous.

P.S. I re-read my post and I could see where it was ambiguous, i apologize for that, i accidentally deleted when I initially wrote due to lag and then I re-did it again quickly and I wasn't careful of the words I chose.
