Women and children

Our new theme is women and children and all the class discussion on this topic is very interesting to me. The question of if the term women and children has the same relevance today as it did 50 years ago is a complex one. I believe that no matter what the idea of male superiority will always be around just like racism will always be around no matter what people say. Sure women can get the same jobs as men and are equal to men in mostly eerything nowadays but the past is the past and just as slavery will always be in the minds of blacks, male superiority will always be in the minds of men and world leaders. The question of if the term still means the same thing..i think that no it doesnt, today it would be wrong for a man to openly say women and children are weaker hence making that statement ok to use. But, i also think that it will always be in the back of peoples minds that men have been unrightfully superior to women in the past and that the term women and children will always subconsciously be around and viewed the same way it was years ago.
