the stereotypes used in those postcards really upset me…
“would there be war if the world would be run by women” tells us that women are generally different from men - which i believe is a matter of gender. So it’s only made by society…
the other one obviously shows soldiers who are moslim - how about the crusades? It’s not only violent moslems, pretty much every religion is violent in one or another way
anyay ;-)

men and women are different though. not inferior to each other, just different. we think and act in different ways. this is the majority we are speaking of because theres always going to be a minority. women generally think with emotion and men think with ‘logic’ this is not to say one or the other is better. its not pigeonholing or restricting. just generally different. mind and body. its proved by the state the world is in now obviously. male dominated world it is war torn, oppressive and sexist. and no i dont think women would create war if we ran the world. because talking it through is clearly a better option than going out all guns blazing.

Btitain was run by a woman. Margaret Thatcher had no problem going to war in 1982. Would there be war if women ruled the world? Yes. D’uh.

EVERYONE is different! The world would most likely still be horrible if women ruled it. It is two large for so few people to control especially in the way they strive to do it. Yes i do believe that everyone deserves equality, however i do not believe this ad campaign is a good way to illustrate it. Women can be just as good or as evil as men.
