[From "Support for the weaker sex is already too strong"]

Got your BS detectors up and running? This (anonymous) CP article is called "Canadian support for gender equality doesn't match reality, survey suggests".

[QUOTE]Canadian support for the principle of equal rights for women and men is among the highest in the world — but in practice, archaic attitudes towards gender roles are still alive and well both at home and around the globe, a new survey suggests.

Respondents to the international Pew Research Center poll released Thursday expressed overwhelming support for the concept of gender equality — 93 per cent of Canadians surveyed ranked it as “very important,” second only to Sweden at 96 per cent.

So 93% of Canadians find "equal rights for women and men" [ie. both of the only two genders... -ed] important. Sure. Hey in the rest of this article they break respondents down by sex, why don't they do it with this one too? Is it because a surprisingly large percentage of women don't believe in equal rights for men and women?

In more practical terms, however, the survey found a significant gap between men and women when it comes to which gender they believe enjoys a higher quality of life: 69 per cent of women in Canada said men have a better quality of life, compared with 49 per cent of Canadian men who said the same thing.

So women are stupid and crazy, we already knew this. What's shocking is how many men are still operating under the delusion that our "quality of life" is higher. Have they not seen how many girls get free dinners at The Keg? Have they not sat at 1STRND on Bourbon Street watching the women walking out as their husbands hold multiple bags from stores that don't sell men's clothing? Don't they know the guy working a $45/hr job and driving a 18 year old Aveo who doesn't get to see his kids in Vancouver because his wife cleaned him out in the divorce? Putting your COVID glasses on, women live longer: when we're being told that extending an 82 year old's life by another year is important enough to torpedo an entire economy how can you not rationally understand there's a higher "quality of life"?

"It is the case, I think, that people in Canada really see men and women having equal rights as very important. And they're somewhat more optimistic than other countries that women will eventually have the same rights as men," said Pew research associate Janell Fetterolf.

Oh go fuck yourself Janell Fetterolf, and make me a sandwich while you're at it.

Women already have, stop me if this is news to you, more rights than men. For starters, if I killed a baby people would at least look at me funny, not hold marches to celebrate my accomplishments. There isn't a single right that men have which women don't. That's not even something open for debate or argument. It's 10,000% fact plain and simple. Pew Research probably should have, you know, researched that.

Canadian women are also less optimistic than their male counterparts when it comes to the future of gender equality: 88 per cent of female respondents said they either are or expected to be treated equally, compared with 93 per cent of men.

We aren't dealing with rights here either by the way: if you expect "to be treated equally" part of "equal rights for women and men" then keep waiting. It's not going to happen and it never should.

Dumb broads like Fetterolf having equal vote is one of the reasons only 93% of Canadians (again, we don't know the breakdown of this number) think women should have the same rights as the menfolk.
