Re: Men are worth it!
Now lets examine this from another angle, men tended in the past to be the bread winner and the woman supplemented the household wages, were not in places of power etc and a culture of rewarding men grew up as it benefited the entire family. It wasn't strange to see factories where women earned less than men because generally we did different jobs. None of us complained as we knew we all had a place and it worked. Then mechanisation came in and suddenly women could work alongside men as the lifting and carrying had been taken out of the equation and women fought for equal pay as they did equal work.Re: Men are worth it!

My first knee jerk reaction to the OP wasRe: Men are worth it!
I don't think women should stay at home and let men do the breadwinning... I really like winning my own bread. What I think is that women should learn to get along with other women and stop being so competative and catty toward each other. It's that crap that makes it hard for women to be taken seriously in the workplace.Re: Men are worth it!
In my former incarnation as a middle manager in commerce my key workers, including my right hand man, were always women. Women have their say & then get over & on with the job, Men niggle, then say they're gonna do it, but try to sabotage the work.Re: Men are worth it!
I would echo Robert - I find that women do tend to just get on with the job without all the 'look at the flair I have boys' that you often get from men - they always seem to need a 'parade and a fanfare (fanfair?) for everything they do! I've also had both male and female bosses and I got on okay with them and can't honestly say one was worse or better than the other.
