You Would Think He Would Remember the Good Parts From Aristotle
A gender discrimination debate erupted in the briefing to the parliamentarians on water issue in a local hotel here Wednesday when a senator that women are "less wiser as compared to men."Iâm beginning to think male insensitivity is a worlwide problem. "Women parliamentarians strongly reacted to the comments and demanded an apology from Senator Liaqat Bangalzai who said he just quoted a saying of Greek Philosopher Aristotle that women had 30 teeth as compared to men who have 32." Damm it. Iâve just counted my teeth and I have only 25. (I lost one, and dentists had to take out six, six!, because I didnât have enough space in my mouth for all of them. Say what you will about me, but I have no shot at wisdom. "The heated debate prolonged, as the women parliamentarians wanted the withdrawal of statement from Bangulzai but he refused to do so." The women might also opt for calling him a âmale chauvinist pig.â Although calling someone âpigâ in Pakistan might be going too far. (Almost as bad as calling someone America-lover.) "Most of the women who stood up on their seats said that they have equal with like men and the statement of Bangulzai has a created controversy to air the gender discrimination." You go sisters! "The women parliamentarians defending the statement replied that the statement of Bangulzai was false and Aristotle was falsely quoted in the comments, which reflect the mentality of senator himself." The gals shoot themselves in the brain, er, foot, by showing they donât know what they are talking about. Aristotle did make such statement, and by defending Aristotle where he should not be defended they hurt their cause rather badly. Posted by: Sorge 2003-10-09 |
