Women are sexist! Or are they?

The other day, while I was driving, a certain radio deejay was hosting a talk show inviting callers to debate the topic "Are women sexist?" Unfortunately, I tuned in late but managed to be entertained and little more amused by the defensive responses coming from the female callers, saying ".. we, women, can do almost anything a man does, only better.." and so forth.
This topic has been around for quite some time and makes interesting tea time gossip. Frankly, I don't give a hoot who is sexist, or if women think they're better than men, or vice versa! But I'll give two hoots to any gender who can provide me with solutions to my hair thinning, anytime!
What is with people, comparing between the two sexes, like survival on this planet is dependent on who is the stronger gender? Women think this is caused by man's perception of women as the weaker sex, while men tend to attribute this women's behaviour to be caused by their continuous struggle for equality.
Forget it! Women can never be like men, nor can men be like the women. These two opposite sex can never by equal in everything, nor can either be superior over the other, unless your religion somehow teaches the contrary! Everyone knows there are things men cannot do what women can, and vice-versa.
Fighting for equality, or equal rights and privileges is alright if situation place women in unfavourable position. But let's not fight for the sake of winning the debate, because in the end, we all need each other, and we need women to be women, and men to be men, else we would be turning to the animals, eh? Nope, wouldn't even want to think that far..
