Question

Disadvantages of women empowerment

Answer 1

The disadvantage of empowering women is that when you preach total equality, you might lose gender identity. There are differences between men and women that should not be blanketed by extreme equality measures; women are simply better at teaching, men are simply physically stronger. These differences should be embraced and taken advantage of rather than masked. Also, in the endeavor to empower a particular group, sometimes people feel entitled simply because they belong to that group. For example, there seems to be a sense that "women should be respected" regardless of how they act. People should be respected, if they deserve respect. I've met plenty of stupid, classless women that insist you treat them a certain way simply because they are women. No, you earn respect, regardless of whether you're a man or a woman.
