Besides give birth. To me it seems that women’s only purpose to men is sex and to give birth. Men are better physically and everything that I can think of. Also don’t give me that women are better caregivers bullsh*t. If my mom was working and my dad was at home all day I’m sure he would be a heck of a better caregiver than my mom.
What are the Metaphysical limitations that men have, that women do not have?

Here’s one answer: philosophizing!

How exactly does being physically stronger equate to being physically better? Maybe I missed the redefinition of man as the “strong animal”, instead of the “rational animal”. But I do not see how your physical strength makes any sort of impact on what you can do in your life, in any relevant sense.
Also, please explain in what other ways men are better. Your current statement is really vague, and as such it’s hard to respond to it in a meaningful way.

The ability to have as many orgasms as they like?

I don’t know of many metaphysical limitations on men or women, considered collectively. We do have some sex-specific nouns in English: lactation, menstruation, ejaculation, erection. Otherwise, the metaphysical limitations that I’m aware of are not applicable to the collective, just the individual.
The ability to have as many orgasms as they like?
Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Dadmonson, having some trouble with the women folk?

Women are better than men at attracting men. Heterosexual men, I mean.
But, really, think about Ayn Rand, she’ll smoke you intellectually.

I can’t think at this time. I should of made this thread when I was more clear headed. I don’t really know.
Males and Females have different metaphysical traits, I’m sure. What they are I can’t really tell you because I’m not really well informed in the area.
I know this though, I wouldn’t want to be a woman and I like being a man.
I don’t know if I’m going against objectivist views because I’m new.
Interesting, because I wouldn’t want to be a man.

I for one am glad to be a man and glad K-mac isn’t.

I’m sorry, but how can you make statements like the ones you made when you obviously have no basis for them? What you offered is about as substantial as the standard religious argument of: “I have no evidence for X, but the bible/God/my preacher says it’s like this and therefore it must be.”

I mean, why would you want a relationship with the opposite sex then? Other than for sex. Social Conditioning?
Because I love the ladies. They have all the qualities that I do not as a man.(And they smell good too.)

Hmm, maybe because you think this person is absolutely amazing in every way that matters to you, and you want to be with them romantically? I guess we could argue that every guy should date guys, because they’re obviously superior and it would be destructive towards human flourishing to go with the lesser alternative. But then, I do not think you can attach oughts to romantic attraction; you are attracted to someone because they represent many things you value (subconsciously or not). If that person happens to be a woman, great. If they’re not, also great.
I think the question of why you should want to be with a woman is misguided; it’s primarily about finding someone you can love and admire deeply, and to whom you’re very much attracted. If that’s all the case, who cares about whether or not the average woman or man is better? You’re not in a relationship with the average person, I hope…

Ohhhh… Do I sense something between the lines here?

How are you sure of something about which you admit you are not well-informed?
I know this though, I wouldn’t want to be a woman and I like being a man.
As others have already attested, there are women who wouldn’t want to be men either. Personally I think it is pretty much a good thing when a person is satisfied with their gender. What that has to do with the topic at hand is another matter.
Here’s a hint though, if you get to the point where you are thinking about asking a girl out (or maybe for marriage), you might want to reconsider their “utility” to men goes beyond sex and babies. If you can’t appreciate her for more than that, you may be in for a long, lonely life. Either that or just stick to prostitutes.
Perhaps therein lies the answer, consider men and women beyond simply utility.
Also don’t give me that women are better caregivers bullsh*t. If my mom was working and my dad was at home all day I’m sure he would be a heck of a better caregiver than my mom.
Well, your sampling is rather small there. If someone did make the claim that women were better caretakers, I think they would concede that the statement is not true 100% of the time. It would probably be more of a generality.
Nevertheless, I have to ask; if your mom is that bad at taking care of you, and your father would be so much better, why is he allowing her to take care of you? Or is it possible given the entire context of the situation that they are BOTH doing what is best in taking care of you as a couple (but in different ways)?
But then, I do not think you can attach oughts to romantic attraction; you are attracted to someone because they represent many things you value (subconsciously or not).
But that is an “ought”. If you are attracted to such a woman, and they are available and equally inclined towards you, hadn’t you “ought” to pursue her? Or ought you pursue a different woman who does not fit that bill?
The “ought” is identifying reality and acting in accordance to that reality. That applies as much to romantic attraction as it does to anything else.

I mean that in the context of: thinking that you should be attracted to someone when you’re not. That doesn’t make any sort of sense to me. At least, in the context of pursuing romantic relationships.
What are the Metaphysical limitations that men have, that women do not have?
Off the top of my head, women generally have more brain processing devoted to seeing colors(not movement), smelling and hearing then men making their senses more acute in those areas. For one advantage, these allows for greater linguistic understanding;especially with regard to nonverbal understanding and empathetic response.
They have 33% more interconnectivity in the corpus collosum which allow for much better communication between the left and right hemispheres. This causes more direct identification of their emotional states as well as an increased ability to navigate in 3 dimensions. Better inductive skills(worse deductive skills) because of the increased relational awareness this allows.
Additionally, their brains in a passive state are more active, then male brains in an active state(men are “designed” more for efficiency) This allows for better multitasking abilities.
They live longer on average.
Tend to be more flexible.
Are 75% less likely to suffer from substance abuse disorders.
Their faces are hairless and more childlike for longer, eliciting care-taking reactions from men, which provides them with many constant and oft overlooked social advantages.
And, they smell good.

So, it’s actually scientifically proven that men cannot understand women.
I know some of you might want to object here and say that it goes both ways, but that’s wrong. Women can understand men perfectly, they just choose not to.
However, all things considered one can’t help but to love women. *sigh*

Wait, how did *that* follow from what he said?
