He means we'll still be second class citizens but treated very well.
I'm afraid that only equality is preferable to non equality.

why do you assume he means that?

Why else wouldn't he want us equal?

( girlinthehole, Wed 31 Mar 2010, 10:20, Reply)

maybe he didn't mean 'equal' as in 'standing'
Maybe he just meant 'level' but 'different'.

I dunno. I wasn't offended but I was raised being told we were a feminist household and I still have no idea what it really means.

I wasn't offended because he had no malice behind it.

If I thought he meant women should be 'well-treated second class citizens'
I'd have been VERY offended!
But I don't think he did.

Well if were not equal and were not second class then what are we

( girlinthehole, Wed 31 Mar 2010, 10:29, Reply)

I think he meant equal as in 'same'
If you know what I mean.
We'reas you're talking about 'equal' as in rights/opportunities?

to me that looks like arguing semantics

Only Porky knows what he means.
Until he makes it clear we'll never know.
