[edit] Men are often depicted as physically stronger than women
IMHO, it's a bad example for gender discrimination, because a common man is actually stonger, than a common woman, while a common woman is actually more emotinal, than a common man.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.222.220.89 (talk • contribs).
[edit] Gender/Sex
If this article is about discrimination based on a person's anatomical sex, it should be moved to Sex discrimination, since gender is a society's ideas about the sexes.--Rockero 01:26, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
- when the issue is anything societal (like being hired or fired), it's gender. When it's biology (penis, vagina, pregnancy, mucus -anything outside the area of sociology), it's sex... Towsonu2003 06:00, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
- This one is gender, a societal construct that determines one's status within the society... Towsonu2003 06:01, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
- That's kind of a POV argument, as there's no broad acceptance of that distinction. Also, the article for sexism clearly includes this subject. MisfitToys 23:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
