You are probably directing this at men, but I've also heard this directed at women who were surprised to find out that working unpleasant jobs full time is actually not the greener grass they thought it was.

Or women picking a physical fight only to be shocked at a man fighting back.

Or women being surprised at being sentenced to jail when they expected a slap on the wrist.

The list goes on.

As a woman, that's a good thing. Equality is equality the bad and the good. But I feel like many people of all genders have a hard time adapting.

But why is equality of outcomes necessary? We see worldwide physical and psychological differences between the sexes, and the reproductive strategies typically used are different. Why shouldn't that reflect in broadly different social norms and roles?

Where did I say equality of outcomes? This is just about holding people to the same standards. Equality of opportunity would be nice, but the majority of women (worldwide) don't have that either.

Should we also reflect this in wages for sports and physical jobs?
