Its always fun when the christian pastor will joke about changing the carpets in the church, while i see posts about the muslims in ramadan will give food to the poor during thier religious month or ramadan.

Hell (jumping to the dark side. Sorry muslims) but suicide bombers are willing to give thier life to what they believe in (yes, killing others is bad, but giving your life to a cause is respectible), while my christian pastor will live next to neighbours sleeping on a matress in thier front yard, and do nothing to help thier PHYSICAL neighbour.

Maybe I am the outlier, but for all I see, Christians are the ones pretending to do good, while the muslims had a rough patch almost 20 years ago, and are doing more good that the christians in the last 5 years or so.

Not sure where you're from, but in germany and austria, christians are definitely doing good. Churches here have a lot of support networks for everyone, especially elderly and people in need. In germany, we also have the "diakonie", a service of the ... protestant church? (idk how to translate that properly into english, the opposites of catholics here lmao), which is a major part of elderly care. And in many villages or smaller cities, the churches are open during the night for the homeless to take shelter, if they want to.

While I'm really not a big fan of religions in general, I feel like it's unfair to claim that christians don't do anything for society at large. At least from my european perspective.

3 of these are real examples things the people on the right did, the last is a meme made to make fun of feminists. Don't get me wrong, there's a level of feminism that goes too far, I just have yet to see an example of this in real life. There's something about women in general that makes society eager dismiss them offhand as silly and ridiculous whenever they have opinions.

So you've never met a TERF in real life?

And 'assholes' just appear at random? Nothing in these groups increases or decreases the asshole frequency? Imagine if we thought of all culture that way. Forget about progressive politics changing people's minds and thereby their behavior. "Some people are just 'assholes', what are you gonna do?"

Sorry for the autism :)

Why is the bottom right picture done like that, it looks like these feminists just want to be more like men.

Why am I saying this? Because that position of the arm is there to show a bulging contracted bicep. Women have a lot less muscle there, so it doesn't make sense.

Wouldn't feminism be better when striving for things that women are naturally better at than men.

We don't need to do the same stuff, everyone can do what they want.

But don't make a fish climb a tree. Everyone should cultivate their own strengths and learn their own weaknesses.

And for women, being physically strong will usually be less attainable. Obviously there are exceptions. When I was 65 kg I could deadlift 140 kg, so a lot of muscle isn't actually needed for strength, but still you get what I'm saying.

This type of stuff, as I was growing up, made me actually believe men and women were the same.

After years of talking extensively to men and women, I can assure you that's not the case.

There should be no stereotyping, but we are indeed different and do not need to be the same.

/End autistic rant

I forgive you your autism lol, I was raised very similarly especially because I had three sporty sisters (much sportier than I was).

Everyone should cultivate their own strengths and learn their own weaknesses.

That's what happens if you remove sex barriers for work. For instance, most people could not be firefighters regardless of their sex or hormonal makeup. In fact most men do not have what it takes to be a firefighter. But some men do, and some women also do. And most importantly, these men and women have the drive and motivation to become good at it.

I'm not even saying there are the same amount of qualified candidates between men and women, but there are enough in both groups that it makes sense not to limit applications along lines of sex or gender.

If you’d like a bit of a read, the character portrayed there is named Rosie the Riveter.

Wikipedia - Rosie the Riveter

It’s definitely a wartime relic, but the history behind it is very interesting!
