I'm obedient, but I can admit I just don't have that type of strength in me. It's not something anyone can even be proud of, because it just comes to you seemingly out of nowhere. Anyone who claims they have it is just a pretender, that goes for men and women.
In my experience women are do-ers. They understand the world as we know it better than men ever could. Men really shine when coming up on the unknown. That's hard though, and we simply can't do it on our own.

When it comes down to it with stuff like that it's just way more effort to be moving around a big body like that. It's the same reason featherweight fights go to the 3rd/5th and heavyweight fights only tend to be a round or two. Girls are more chatty too though, atleast usually. I think we've all noticed the effect a good conversation can have on a work day.

Complete opposite ime. The women I have worked with have always had 50 questions about the task at hand and took twice as long doing it wasting labor. I work for a medicinal marijuana grow and the girl we work with is by far the worst employee. 30ish too so she has no fucking excuse maturity wise. Talks back if she doesn't want to do her job, pushes shit off on other people, had our first ever manditory HR meeting because of an incident involving her. She can call her coworkers fags, cock suckers, make verbal threats of stabbing us with a pair of scissors (i personally laughed and told her to do it, her face looked like a strawberry) but the second someone makes a very light diss to her on the wrong day she loses her shit and now we have firm rules set. This has been my experience with women. Oh yeah, and because she has a vagina she automatically gets out of all physical labor. Go figure. go women ra ra ra. I'm sure I'm far from the only one with an experience like this. Like 110% sure without a fucking doubt.

Yeah well MMJ is kind of a puss industry no offence, as I have the upmost respect for the work you do. All the women I work with know their work like none other, and even today I had trouble diagnosing a machine and one walked up and showed me what was wrong in a couple seconds, with no attitude whatsoever. I am nice and drama-free though, so I may be the exception as far as men go. They'll bring me in food and there isn't a single day of the month where they treat me bad, so maybe I am the exception.

No it really isn't .If you are an amazing bud tender/put a lot of effort into it, it's not easy . Also depends on the person very much so . I do agree though that it is much easier to slide by on the bare minimum in that line of work. And I've seen so many cases of hot chicks being bud tenders and not knowing anything about the product though

Just the type of people you're liable to get and the work involved. No noxious fumes, no risk of death or maiming, the worst thing you've got to fear is a pair of scissors. Sorry but it sounds like a snoozefest to me.

You've obviously never been around a real grow. Wood chippers and plenty of shit we use that are labeled "carcinogens" and "call poison control if inhaled" type shit if there is a mold problem in a room or pest problem. Plug one cord in the wrong socket you fry yourself. screwing the MH lights in you have to wear safety goggles, reason being, one fucktard didnt and got glass shards in his eyes from just screwing it in. Yeah tell me more how its a pussy bore fest.

ok I was just fucking around, but it's a new industry and you're not going to get established worker women like I know. I do take personal offence to anyone making slights against women, I just won't stand for it.

I'm not kidding about women. I don't really know shit about the MMJ industry, but the shit you are talking about still seems kind of trivial to me. I know women who have been there longer than I've been alive and there is nothing anyone could say to make me think they're anything but industrious and good coworkers. Maybe they are the exception, but so am I, and I am proud to be a part of it.

proth said: How did this thread skip off the rails again? Women can be just as destructive or constructive as men. Were equal.
Being a decent person is being a decent person. Being decent has nothing to do with masculine vs feminine. Women are more wired to nurture. You can nurture both good and bad. A woman can foster clarity or confusion. Men are more wired to protect and usher. Men can protect both good and bad. Usher in both good and bad. Male behavior is not toxic nor is Female Behavior.
Both women and men can learn how to be better people in this world
Out of context, male behavior can be viewed as toxic. Male's harmonize with other males in completely different ways than women. We chide and poke at each other. That is a demonstration of our IQ. That's what we do. To excess it can be toxic and destructive. IQ is balanced by EQ.
Women harmonize by expressions of their EQ. To excess this can be equally toxic as it becomes manipulative instead. Everyone understands the woman who you can't reason with who judges everything by how it impacts here emotions. Without logic (IQ), EQ is toxic and a very ugly state of being. Why? because emotions can betray you quite easily. Bad women prey and play on them ...
Without EQ, IQ can be toxic as efforts must be directed towards harmony and good will. So, males have to watch out for the other half while being themselves.
Here, to quote a woman speaking up about that bad side : https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23893613/fpart/13/vc/1#23900536

Ezuma : https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23900676#23900676 You'e missing the point. Being a leader has nothing to do w/ leading people or being in control of others. It has to do with leading yourself and being in control of yourself. That is the cornerstone of being a man. Moves away from this aren't evolution. It's regression. When you have no control of yourself of your destiny (being a boy) is when you actually go out and try to rule and dominate others. This is what we see more than anything in today's day in age. Again, this is regression and has nothing to do w/ the bedrock foundation of being a man. Appearances can be deceiving quite clearly as people have come to view boys who control others as men. No man control this world. Thus it is a fool and a boy's errand to try to.
@Webster10 : You're an impressive specimen of a 19 year old male in 2016 and I don't say that sarcastically. I would say that you should temper your ego a little but that's part of becoming a man that you will progress through and learn form along your journey. For now, your hormones and your essence is blazing and it's every young man's right to allow for that to guide them at your age. Just ensure you learn from your trials/tribulations. When sound comments are made, listen to older men who have been down your path.

@moonrockmushy https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23900869#23900869 Women started doing better in school when they started punishing male behavior. This started about 10 years ago when third wave feminism began roaring : www.cbsnews.com/videos/are-schools-failing-boys/ 'war on boys' / 'boys falling behind' Many prominent female teachers and psychologists documented it and warned society. No one listened.
http://www.npr.org/2013/02/12/171806323/boys-are-at-the-back-of-the-class http://www.npr.org/2013/02/12/171806325/dads-weigh-in-on-why-boys-fall-behind http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/harnessing-boys-strengths-passions-improve-academic-achievement/
Women and men have different brains that are predisposed to enjoy different activities. A man would not enjoy and thus complain about repetitive activities because their minds are wired towards more spatial tasks.
Women are wired to be more subservient and nurturing. Men are wired to be more rebellious and forceful.
Yin/Yang. The old spoke about this long ago. Being subservient and nurturing isn't a weak trait. It is a strong trait and is the cornerstone of the feminine.
Women were brainwashed to believe it makes them weak. So, they abandoned it and took up more rebellious and forceful natures. With no one guarding the hen house or nurturing the youth, the second half of the current generation turned into mush heads. The ironic thing is that the real ass-hole men resulted from an abandonment of the nurturing of good men and attempts to get men to be more feminine (emotional). If you want to see a dangerous and destructive man, find an emotional one. They're called 'loose cannons' for a reason. Essentially, such men are the most dangerous and destructive because they're predisposed by nature to be forceful yet are guided by emotions without (EQ - Emotional Intelligence).
So, grand summary : Women (Yin) - Strength through Nurturing steered by EQ - Emotional Intelligence tempered by IQ
Men (Yang) - Strength through force steered by IQ - Logical Intelligence tempered by EQ
Two equal halves of a hole. For men, chiding and acting a fool is the way we relax, unwind, and enjoy each other. However, it is not to be taken to excess. A real man knows when to be serious about serious matters.
A woman has a different way of unwinding and relaxing.
Both men and women can learn great things from each other. A woman doesn't have to behave like a man in a man's setting. The power of a real woman is that all she has to do is be present and she influences the tone of interaction.
A lot of people seem to have lost their way in this world to be at a point in which there is confusion about such basics. It doesn't get any easier as time progresses forward. So, it's best that everyone catches up.
Namaste
Damn dude. Nice.

In line-working factories women tend to be the majority because they can work harder and faster given the type of work. I would be like sweating and these little girls would be looking at me like there's something wrong with me. If women weren't strong they wouldn't have been the shield-maidens entrusted to protect viking crops and livelihood. Women will fuck your shit up. There are lazy people and idiots everywhere and doesn't really matter what does or doesn't dangle between your legs.
I think far too many women underestimate their own strengths..
I'd venture to say that men are probably more pussy than women..
For example whenever it's cold out and like i don't have jacket or anything, and there's a girl out in the cold who doesn't have a jacket either, I'll be shaking like a rattle freezing my balls off while these other chicks just got there arms around their chest or sumthing not shaking at all almost as if they were oblivious to the cold, I see this all the time, it's like girls can handle colder whether better than man can, like they've got thicker coats or sumthing.. Either that or I'm just a pussy..

I've not noticed that at all, in fact men usually do better in the cold and women (being generally smaller) have a harder go of it. I don't buy into the whole 'oh man women are just so much stronger, smarter, tougher, hard working.... than men thing. Some truth to some of it for sure, but as a rule no.
Still, it is generally true that women deal with pain better than men, both physical and emotional, probably just due to exposure more than anything, and being allowed to vent/connect emotionally without being dismissed or shut down

So, you are saying there is a sense of responsibility?
You should stop doing drugs. You are clearly not very open. Not fooling anyone brah but, thanks for coming.
