ankwhitey:Any broad spectrum answer to this question gives the question too much credit. Women were "treated badly back in the day" for the same reasons they are treated badly currently.
Women are treated badly when they are weak, or vulnerable; and someone who is evil- or simply idiotic, decides to take advantage of that situation.
Women have no more or less power today than they ever did, although the way that power manifests itself has changed. The same is true for men. Either sex is a force to be reckoned with, and always has been.

∙ 15y agoBefore women got their civil rights they couldn't own property, and if they left their husband's they had no right to shared property or even their own children. They had no right to vote or education beyond what their fathers thought they needed to know to be wives and mothers - which wasn't much. They didn't have the right to choose who they would marry. Women have dealt with oppression throughout the world.

How did the life of an immigrant compare to the life of a slave?
They can be similar in some ways, but different in others. Immigrants can be treated badly because of their citizenship which is sometimes called 'modern day slavery'. Immigrants can sometimes be beaten or treated with cruelty, but not always. It depends on the conditions the immigrants are working on. But slaves are usually treated very badly because they are slaves and known to be treated as people wish because of human selfishness. So generally, slaves are treated much worse. Hope this helps.Answer kindly provided by Denis Ianev.

What does it mean when a woman you dumped and treated badly called you repeatedly for one day crying but you haven't heard anything from her since?
It means that the woman you dumped and treated badly finally realized that you are a jerk! She probably found a new man, one worthy of her attention. Chances are your penis is small, that's why you feel you need to treat women badly. Too bad for you! You think you are going to hear "because she still loves you and is in sheer misery and I want you all to know what a hot guy I am!" You're the type of jerk that really loves 'em and leaves 'em in a demoralizing way. Did you ever think for one minute that this girl could be so stressed out at the shoddy way you've treated her that it could end up badly such as possible suicide? Perhaps she has no one else to turn too and she misses you. Are you happy now? THE HEAD OF THE SNAKE ALWAYS TURNS AROUND AND BITES YOU ON THE BUTT! I hope you get yours real soon!

Do men and women get treated the same?
I think that in some cases around the world that women are treated the same as men but in other cases around the world women aren't treated the same as men so they get treated differently. This is because in some countries and religions they believe or think that it isn't a women's duty to be able to do certain things like going to school to get an education to go to work or if they they go to work then them going to work for long hours during the day and not getting paid a lot of money. In some other countries and religions they believe or think that its a women's duty to be able to get a good education and get a job but not working lots of hours at a time and can work and get time off pretty much how much and when they like.
