Is it weird that I like the differences between men and women?

I'm a girl, and I've noticed that a lot of feminists seem to like denying the differences between men and women, taking equal so far that they think the two genders are the same, and whenever anyone points out a difference they get offended. I like and appreciate the differences between us. While I'm a pretty tough girl, I love that whole "men are big and strong and protect girls" thing. I goggled some stuff like that and apparently it's men's instinct to protect females, which I really like, and it's also why girls are often attracted to muscles. Anyway, I digress, it just feels like there's something wrong with me to feel this way when so many girls are arguing that women are just as strong as men, etc

Update:

*equality

*googled

    Women like you are as rare as booty shorts on a nun. I am glad there are women out there who understand that there ARE differences between men and women. Kudos to you.

    Now the next step is to preach this to feminists. They won't listen to US, so maybe hearing this from another woman would cause them to be receptive? Probably not, but it's worth a shot.

    Sweetie, there are many differences between men and women, and I like that too !!

    It's not weird at all. Don't even worry about that..... Don't let the Feminazi's get a hold of you.

  • There are differences and it can't be helped. I wish I could be a guy so I can travel alone and not be scared of getting kidnapped, I wish I could have sex with strangers without worrying they could potentially murder me, I wish I didn't have to worry about staying out late at night, I wish I was built like a guy so I could get paid more doing physical labor....at the end of the day girls can't. It's the way we were built :(

    saying women are exactly the same as men is wrong. We are different, and that's what we need to accept. Image if we would say "men and women are just as strong" and let women compete with men in olympics, it wouldn't work out very good for women I think. That's what feminism is about, we are equal but not the same and we need to accept that and work with it.

    It's not weird. It's not even uncommon. The women you speak about are a minority that simply scream the loudest.

    Past the point of us all being human beings, equally, then yes I agree we are all different, even among the same genders, and what we do. When it's all good, yes I like it. When it isn't, not so much, if at all, sometimes.

    It's not weird. You should revel in our differences.

    I think the same as you do.. but I'm not sure most feminists are trying to say we are "the same". i think they're trying to say we deserve equal benefits..which is not the same as saying we are just as strong. obviously there are some inherent differences that can't be denied. they just want to be treated the same from my understanding

    No, men and women are like apples and oranges. This generation is trying to turn us all into apple-orange hybrids. Its counter-productive.

    Nowadays it is. It wasn't always so.
