Quoting SlavaBogu from another website,

"The beauty of feminism is that it's a self-correcting anomaly.

"In any society where the differences between male and female degenerate to the point where there IS no difference, there is not sufficient replenishment of the population because either guys are doing guys and gals are doing gals OR the heteros are afflicted with the modern age diseases of impotence and low fertility rates. "

Neanderthal Women Joined Men in the Hunt (Eat your heart out, feminists)

You're late on this subject. ;^)

[darkwing104]

In others words "feminism killed off the Neanderthals"

That ought to stir the pot a little.

The greatest contribution that feminism can make is to die as a movement.

[HOTTIEBOY]

That proves it.

When women don't know there place, the whole species starts to break down.

Perhaps Nanderthals died out because the men became "metrosexuals"

[yankeedame]

...male and female Neanderthals were both engaged in going after big game, at least if the evidence from their gravesites is to be believed...

IMHO, this is another case of "the wish is father to the thought." Hunting, esp. primitive sticks-and-flint-knives hunting requires brute straight and stamina. Women come in a definite second in these when compares to men -- even Neanderthal women.

• Women are smaller, with smaller hands, lungs, etc. Because of this women, as a rule, could not keep up with the men.
• Women are more susceptible, and sensitive, to physical pain(s) and discomfort. Even if they don't utter a word, they still feel/suffer from it.
• Women have shorter legs, thus do not run as fast, or sprint, as men.
• Women have menstrual cycles, and all kidding aside about PMS, the mere fact she dribbles, often quite heavily, as well as the frequent cramping and pain involved, does not make her ideal companion for the hunt.
• Women get pregnant. This condition -- even from the very onset w/ morning sickness -- likewise makes women, even Neanderthal women, more of a burden than asset in the hunt.
• A women who has recently given birth to a child, or is nursing a child, is in no condition to be "equal partners" in the hunt.
