Women are the most oppressed humans on the planet...
   ...it's about time in the USA that women come out in droves to vote, no matter how you want to cut it.

But I guess it's hard to see it that way for a lot of people here.

...more than have in the past.

That will all become clear if Hillary is elected, and the "Global War on Men" kicks off.

I agree, the left sees oppression in the US, where there is not, and passes a blind eye on oppression when it is politically expedient.

Yes, and I'd point out while there may be individual women who are oppressed, but it is in personal relationships which aside from domestic violence issues is not a matter for the state to correct and deal with. Women in these situation have far more resources to correct those situations then other countries where women are truly oppressed on a national level and with the pressure of the government behind it.

I agree of course. I was kind of thinking state sanctioned oppression. Yeah, that's it.  :-)

Exactly.  Women are horribly oppressed in many places.  I can't believe that anybody would dare compare American women to women who are oppressed abroad and say that they are equally oppressed  :hammer:  We have it damn good in comparison. 

on edit: This is of course a generalization.  There are individual women in the US who are in terrible situation, but nationally, we are not being oppressed by our society in any comparable way.

Up until now, the War on Men has been pretty much limited to the USA and Old Europe.
