Which gender rules the world? (light spam)

Post by fable »

Personally, I think gender has nothing to do with it. But I thought this would give everybody a chance to vote on an issue that used to be taken so seriously it formed a subject of debating societies.

I didn't know Weasel is a gender as well... :o

Donald Rumsfeld, on the other hand, is totally diffferent. He's from outer space. It's classified information. Only other "person" who belong to him, as far as I know, is Michael Howard.

Men.

...but it is the women who rule the rulers and will be instrumental in their rise to power... :rolleyes:

...and their downfall... ;)

Oh I'm certain its Weasel, sure men do tend to hold more powerful jobs then women, but none of them could ever compare to the likes of our High Tyrant. :cool:

This is a man's world. Image
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

You are young. You know nothing. :p

On the surface, men have more power, or so it looks. However, women is on the saddle with whip in their hands. You see, horse may be running but the rider let it run. :D Look at the Clintons. Bill was the president, but do you think he was more *powerful* than Hilary? I somehow doubt it. :D Or, how about the SYM? You may think fable is the one who's on the look all the time, but real power is in T'laniya's hands.

Donald Rumsfeld

On a more serious note, I'd say women.Sure, we men have the big guns, but they have 2 mountains and one tunnel.I'm sorry guys, but no matter how big our guns are, we can never compare with the size of their land.

My apologies for this juvenile spam

Just like Maharlika I believe that the true power is held by women. We need them more then they need us.
Just look at the "Trojan War" for heavens sake...it was fought over a woman... ;) :D

Therefore, my vote is on "Women".
(Anyone that has ever been in a serious relationship knows that is the truth)... ;)

Buck, however, has the power over both of us, and everybody knows Buck is really Donald Rumsfeld.

That said, I still chose "What?" above. It seemed right, and I prefer going with my psychic hunches.

That makes sence, except one thing: Is Buck a man?

It's the men, and to Minerva, why are you even on the computer? How does your husband let you do that, you're supposed to be in the kitchen. :D

:rolleyes: As far as I know, I don't have a husband. And the reason is I don't want a husband who expects woman to be in the kitchen all the time FOR HIM. :p

Ah, the tough questions, the ones that have been troubling throughout the ages. I think the best answer is: Reply Cloudy. Try Again Later.

Over all? Men rule the world. Women hve some influence and they are gaining more. As far as I know, men have always ruled the world. Would women do a better job than the men?...I don't know..maybe, maybe not. People tend to be people after all.

One thing that I have always found interesting.....in this country women were a long time gaining the vote, because men thought they lacked the wisdom to excercise the privelage responsibly....Ironicaly, when they did gain the vote, one of the first things they did was pass the prohibiton laws while the men were away at war. :rolleyes:


BTW........I think I should rule the world :D

"Try Again Later"? Is it a good idea?

That depends. If the issue is Buck's gender or lack of same, then of course it would make sense to visit the question several times. Depending on the kind of creature he is, gender might be a sometime thing, a constant, or a variable. He may even bud asexually. Perhaps after being watered with a dark Guinness.
