Generally speaking, are women better people than men?

    I would say they are more honest than men. Men are more likely to experiment with drugs amd engage with wreckless aggressive behaviors than women. Many men would rather kill a woman than see two men love eachother and get married. 

    So in general, men are worse off in character due to the principles of traditional masculinity which confine them to believe they are supposed to be aggressive towards eachother and socially dominant over women.

    The super ego most men are raised with constantly shames them if they do not behave "manly" enough and they will go to great lengths to justify their masculinity. Even if it causes death and destruction.

    Women can be an anoyance and i think they have ugly voices but they also try harder to be more harmonious and cooperative and patient because their traditional role is to raise children. If women were as irresponsible as men they couldnt raise children. 

    Not saying there are no ot exceptions. But women are better as far as character is concerned

    hmmm interesting question. i have noticed that alot of people are under the assumption that women are more empathetic. i have seen this assumption in many situations in life. one example i can give is when my little sittle who was about 5 or 6 kept annoying me so i said "what?" in a annoyed tone and her grandad looked at me like he thought that was rude. Lol so it seems like people always expect women to be sweeter and nicer. people do say there are more male psychopaths than female but its hard to tell

    Men and women are just different, Both equally capable of good and bad. Personality is not defined by gender.

    When you come up with a consistent measure of the goodness of somebody, go ahead and apply it to the over 8 billion people on this planet and let us know.

    Actually, let us know about your measurement technique before you start because that might actually be useful.  Trying to apply *ANYTHING* to 8 billion people is painful - just ask the people who are trying to vaccinate the planet.

    In the meanwhile, there are clear trends with very specific measurements over different societies, regions and races, but beyond that, any conclusion says more about your biases than anything profound about men or women.

  • Ridiculous question. This has to be looked at from an individual perspective. Not generalities. That’s just intellectually lazy.

    No, women and men are generally equally capable of being better or worse than other men or women.

    Wow what a stupid question.

    Generally speaking, generally women, or generally men are irrelevant. Only specific people matter - there are plenty of better or worse people from either gender. The real issue becomes what about you- are you better or worse?

    This cannot be answered without a prejudice opinion because there is not enough research to come to an accurate conclusion. Both groups have their flaws and strengths.
