Message: [QUOTE="mushthebush, post: 6429724, member: 458961"] Poker is open to anyone, except children (for no good reason) who are just as capable to beat everyone. I was, why wouldn't others be? Maybe adults are afraid of children and they're amazing capabilities. I vote for age equality. Anyway, I see no reason why women wouldn't get into it head first. My wife got interested by understanding it's not an entirely stupid game of cards and she slowly got into the complexities of it. Maybe a boyfriend or husband that cooks and cleans and takes care of children would be useful? In all honesty, I truly believe women are more capable than men in getting reads and tells and seeing every wrong move in someone's actions. Again just saying she sees everything, even more than I do. They feel it, everything. I am genuinely scared of playing against my wife, and not just poker. I still see that boys and girls are groomed to do certain tasks from the day they're born. Boys are pushed towards manly activities and girls towards princesses and babies and house chores. Total nonsense, but it creates a base of thinking, a mindset. It's the reason why the poor remain poor as poverty is embedded in a child's mind along with the whole package of thoughts and beliefs from the moment they're born. It's the reason why women think they should be women and men should be rednecks. To me, it would be obvious to teach the young ones how crap life can be if you don't manage your finances well and if you are bad with numbers, as you'll never overcome your mediocrity. Everything else they learn as they go along, walking, talking, reading, respecting some and disrespecting who requires it, socialising, selective autism (oh, trust me, it's a necessary life skill). adhd (or energy and excitement in layman's terms), flipping off the management, arguing properly, their rights and the law. You know childish things that are required for hurdling through the masses as they grow, they do it on their own if guided adequately. But parents (bad but devoted salesmen) sell them only what they think is the right product (which is usually a life of misery and poverty, stress and tension and eventually regrets), completely ignoring anything that is creative and productive. In most parents' minds, there is no producer and consumer, because they are consumers and act like consumers and feel the genetical to produce more consumers. And consumers need a despicable job to get some money to pay for what they consume. And no offence, but women often have to do despicable actions (that I don't think they want to) to get a better job. While the producers are ignored and left to become more and more filthy rich. I mean a child should get both sides of the story shouldn't they? Maybe, just maybe, they would like to choose the other side. It all starts at the roots and most roots are rotten or they became rotten throughout their life. We are an evolving species and the youngs live today, while the elderly seem to remain in the past with everything (great knowledge that applied then not now) but are devoted to badly influence their pups. Men and women are equal and can and should do everything they want to. There's no restrictions and no requirements for either. Nothing stops you from doing something you enjoy and have passion for, which will eventually make life better for you. Children are not a requirement and single-party chores should not be a marriage requirement anymore, since one single man with a single wage cannot provide survival to a whole family anymore. Now, all you women, go play poker, now! And tell your children the whole story, not just part of it. Maybe they will play poker someday. Or change the world for the better (while they play poker). You're likely better than most men (at most things) at poker and it is highly likely a safer work environment than most. You're the ones in control, do the right thing. P.S. I don't have any experience of women's rights across the world but I am aware of some attrocities that happen in certain ill regions of this beautiful planet. It's very hard to understand it or accept it. That's it. I'm sorry but I have nothing to add other than make a run for it. P.P.S. I am still poor and struggling, thanks to my parents and teachers and peers around me that stopped me from becoming a millionaire at various points in my life and crushed, with words and actions, every opportunity I saw. All proved to be great and no one ever said "wow, you are indeed smart and saw what I couldn't, so next time I will give you more credit" but what I got instead was "you were just guessing and it could have gone either way". Well, I wasn't and it didn't and their words got me even further away from them. So, I am still struggling to escape people (in particular those close to me) and avoid any influence. Not easy, but necessary and recommended. Parenting lesson right there! [/QUOTE]
