Women are required to wear highheels and make up and such or they are not considered attractive...if they are not skinny and slutty looking they are not attrictive......I am just so sick of women being placed in a submissive role in life...even the bible was re-written many years ago, which left out the idea that women back then were also apostles and teachers of spiritual principles. It just disgusts me really and feel that it is unfortuanate that women have fallen into this mold and have not made a decision to stand up against such nonsense and become equals in this world. They actaully fall right into the mold because of money or status or dillusion.It is a shame really, how are we to evolve as a species if we are stuck on such shallow matters?what do people think about this? Am I alone in my theory? please do not tell me I am...It will just kill me...

 The issue of 'feminism' against male is really un-philosophic issue. Feminism is popularized by anti-philosophers, the socialist, the politician, the theologists..
In reality, male and female are not two different race. Or even two different type. It is an two separate aspect of 'man'. The unity exist between male and female, and the uniting force is 'spirituality, or spiritual aspect of sex'.
Life or humanness cannot function without spiritual force. I have always thought that sexuality is exclusive province of philosophy, and not even sexology. It is bad that philosophy is not as popular as religion.

 Agree with starmonster - women are not placed in submissive roles in respect to being required to dress certain ways, nor is it correct that guy's expect it. I for one certainly dont think I am a peice of meat to be ogled at, ...and if I wear something men would ogle at, trust me I aint wearing it for their attention or approval, I am wearing it coz I felt like wearing it, and if they look - well so be it. My attire has nothing to do with anyone but me. It is YOU who has decided (imposed upon yourself) that there is a mold that you think you are supposed to and have failed to, fit in! I am curious what your basis of comparison is tho, coz I dont tend to go down the street and see too many women dressed in a manner I would think looked 'slutty'. Seems like most of the female population is dressing within a pretty standard range, most of them probably have partners who find them attractive too. Well I hope so or these slutty women will be mighty busy fending of their attracted suitors. So what exactly constitutes slutty attire in your mind? ...and what makes you think you need to wear it to be attractive to a man? My current partner had been ogling me for years at a distance before we got together, and ya know what he was perving on, ...me in trackpants, jeans, t shirts, shirts, boots, runners/sneakers - my typical attire, ..and ya know what he liked about my actual appearance (as opposed to my attire) what he calls my 'beautiful, natural face', coz I rarely wear make up. Of course I think he has beer goggles, but thats another topic lol, yet goes to show there are men seeking and attracted to the exact opposite of what you have convinced yourself that they are!

 Well as a woman who has a wonderful career, singularly owns her own home, drives a nice car, wears whatever she feels like, has a good mixture of male and female friends, raised two kids, has travelled to many other countries, has a size 14 butt (and is proud of it)has had some extremely nice past lovers, is educated and has a big nose and feet!!!...
I guess you don't have to aspire to be the stereotypical submissive, skinny bimbo in order to have a happy life.
I agree the mould is there, but it is easily broken.
Be proud of who you are!!!
