Time for another fun one.

Are men more useful than women, ( not better ) but in general just more useful. ?

For what exactly? Getting rid of the big spiders? Sorting the recycling? Lifting the heavy things?

I'm a believer in equality and balance.

No.. We are equally useful and equally useless depending on the task.. And westlothianhottie.. There is one job that it's impossible for some to do themselves, no. Matter how many times "they" have tried.

No, never mind the men v women comparison, i know various other men within my family are more usefull than me.

I have grown up watching the "women cant do that" thing,bit by bit disappear.

Women airline pilots so happy seeing this,not sure when it was almost 100% men.

What i do find ironic is every so often you will hear a woman say,"thats a mans job"?

But could those female pilots then go out and build a 6ft fence around the garden ? I bet most of those men pilots could

But you could not have those babies without making use of men in the first place, so again proving the point men are more useful lol.

Female fire fighter enters a burning building. Made overcome with fumes on the floor. She has no help. Could she get him out safely?

This isn't a male vs female scenario. After September the 11th the NYFD were revered as heros. Applications to join rocketed, but they'd always had very strict entry requirements, height etc. That had to be amended as it automatically "discriminated" against lots or Latin Americans and hispanics and females being allowed to join. Basically short arses. Fuck that bullshit!

I'm 95kg, if my flats on fire I don't want to be relying on a female for a firemans lift!

And before the usual smart arses get in there, I know, I know, most females would just step over me and turn a blind eye etc......

Hahahaha!! This is kinda my point too, sometimes men are required for a task as they're physically stronger. Not sure a female firefighter could lift me either

I'm struggling to find many other uses for the male species though.

But I'm sure there are some women that ARE physically fitter than most men also..you would need you be as a firefighter or a marine.

Your average male is always going to be stronger than your average female though. And by stronger or fitter I do not mean better. We are completely different biologically therefore I don't think comparisons can be made as I stated earlier.

I used the NYFD as a specific example Oldie because they had a minimum height requirement in place for a reason. That reason was deemed necessary for the job and the safety of the public until the HR/PC brigade got involved because short arses couldn't become national heros in the NYFD simply because of their genetics.

In this case I applied it to women as very few women for instance are over 6ft and therefor lose the advantage of reach etc that goes with that. I'm not going to enter the strength debate as some women on here are undoubtly stronger than some of the specimens I see as males BUT, if a male and female train equally as hard then 99% of the time the male will be stronger, able to lift more and have more endurance, hence all the world records for male athletes are better than for females. That is of course unless that female is serena Williams!

I’ve met plenty female firefighters who give their male water-squirter colleagues a run for their money.

The other reason for many of the height restrictions being removed (police, for example) was that the policy was barring many Asian men (with typically shorter average height) from joining.

Good for you. If you know plenty you must be hanging out at and around firestations a lot as the male to females ratio is still very skewed.

It is very skewed. Around 3% of the total firefighters in the uk are women.

It’s only 40 years since the first full-time female firefighter was employed.

It takes time for balance to adjust. Just because there are a lot fewer of them, doesn’t mean they are any less capable.

It is very skewed. Around 3% of the total firefighters in the uk are women.

It’s only 40 years since the first full-time female firefighter was employed.

It takes time for balance to adjust. Just because there are a lot fewer of them, doesn’t mean they are any less capable. "

I never said it did?? When you're a firefighter you have to meet a certain fitness requirement, it's part of the process. But perhaps the 3% you quote also reflects how the vast majority of females do not meet these requirements and are not suitable for this career??

Thanks for supporting my point!

I'm too short to be air cabin crew and that's traditionally seen as a 'female job'. Some jobs have physical requirements and that's fair enough.

I couldn't hold a fire hose with the water pressure used and I need to stand on the seat to shut the overhead luggage compartment. I'm OK with all that. I can buy kids trainers with no vat on them

There will be males and females who can do the same task. I’ve had a male midwife and was asked if I was ok with that yet we don’t mind who looks at our teeth.

It’s about time we just had the best person for the task. I don’t care who you are.

"No, never mind the men v women comparison, i know various other men within my family are more usefull than me.

I have grown up watching the "women cant do that" thing,bit by bit disappear.

Women airline pilots so happy seeing this,not sure when it was almost 100% men.

What i do find ironic is every so often you will hear a woman say,"thats a mans job"?

But could those female pilots then go out and build a 6ft fence around the garden ? I bet most of those men pilots could "

Ah but could the male pilots thread a needle

This is where the difference in intellect comes in.

The pilot could go out in the pissing rain and build a 6ft fence if he really wanted to.

I'd be smart enough to pay a man to do it.

"But then men can't have babies without women so cancels that out also.

I'm struggling to find something that a man can do and a women can't?

Pee standing up?"

I can pee standing up, it just takes a bit of practice (or a she wee )

See, another example of how useful men are. Its almost a landslide victory that men are more useful than women.

There's actually little evidence to support that theory. It's an age old myth. Studies have shown that there is virtually no difference in actual mathematical ability between boys and girls when tested at school. I believe the only difference is when it comes to spatial awareness.

Men are better at talking shite though

"Time for another fun one.

Are men more useful than women, ( not better ) but in general just more useful. ? "

Well I think so. Especially at work. At my workplace anyway. They don’t complain so much and can fix my electrics and computers. They do tend to mock stuff out of the fridge though.
