Womens rights and equal judgements

Thank you for the debate. My opponent seems to be arguing that women are unfairly discriminated against, that they are treated as if they are inferior, and that men and women should be treated equally. She makes a number of contentions to support this. 1: Provocative Dress. "why do women endure more sexual abuse get discriminated for ie: wearing short skirts , showiing flesh acting provocatively" This I believe is wholly inaccurate, the other day I went to work in a short skirt and boob tube, I was subjected to ridicule, disdain and disciplinary action. However female colleagues who have dressed in a similar style received either a neutral or positive reaction. Thus it is clear to me that it is men who are the targets of abuse in this matter and that women actually have greater rights in regard to provocative dress. Having learnt my lesson I went to work the following day in a long, modest dress. I was still subjected to abuse, however female co-workers are able to dress in skirts, dresses or trousers without incurring the displeasure of their fellow workers. Thus this contention is negated. 2: Promiscuity. "whereas men can do the exact same thing except worse, sleep with alot of women ( one night stands) do the same things and be known as the "man" or someone cool,." This is entirely subjective, certain male social groups will express disdain for promiscuity, certain female social groups will actually encourage it. If one is to look outside these limited anecdotal accounts to the wider society, men's magazines, reality TV, tabloid headlines, it can be seen that popular culture actually endorses and encourages promiscuous women. I personally judge promiscuous men in a far more negative light than I do women. 3: Women are regarded as weaker. "This to me in basic women discrimination, my opinion is that women are discretley known as the weaker sex and the more incontrolled ones." Though women are sometimes referred to as the weaker sex the actual situation is more far more complicated. In terms of physical strength and formal or obvious leadership roles women appear to be the 'weaker'. However it is abundantly clear that women actually wield far greater power. One example of this is TV advertising, men are consistently parodied and portrayed as nothing more than big kids who would be helpless were it not for a woman. Why is this, why would advertising executives (who are mostly men) denigrate themselves and half of their potential market? That would make no sense surely? The answer is that within almost all male-female relationships it is the woman who holds the most power and makes the majority of economic or purchasing decisions. Who decides how to decorate the family home, the woman, who decides what type of bread the family buys, it is 9 times out of 10 the woman. Furthermore Men understand, and are conditioned into accepting this constant demeaning propaganda in good cheer, they have therefore in this sense accepted on some level their inferiority to women. Once made equal to man, woman becomes his superior -Socrates Who can deny that this is not the exact situation that modern society is in? 4: Equality. "i am completely for " women rights and equal judgement" Men and women are different, skeletal structure, physical strength, social interaction, tendencies towards specific areas of intelligence, emotional responses, sexual desires. They are biologically different, even the male and female brains function is differing ways. Those these differences are not absolute, a female body builder will obviously be stronger than most men for example, and it does not take into consideration the confusing and complicated issues of gender dysmorphia or hermaphrodism their is a strong correlation between certain abilities, behaviours personalities and gender. Is my opponent arguing that the two very different sections of the human race be treated equally in all things?
