If you think the answer is obvious, and that there must be a trick, it's not so much a trick than a question that calls for an elaborate answer. This is one question that isn't, and shouldn't be, answered easily by anyone. Have fun. ^_^

Is it because saying one or the other would sound like sexism?

No. If people just consider whatever technicalities they can think of, that they consider to be strength, a decision can be reached. There's no need to fear sexism, here. The things to fear are assumed ideas, especially those that have been propagated for the last few thousand years or so. ;/

Strength? What do you mean, "strength?" Physical strength? Emotional strength? Willpower? Are we including the extremes -- athletes, cripples, manic-depressives? And what about age? Nationality!? A lack or presence of superpowers!? Aaaahhhh I don't know what to doooooooooooooo!

In all seriousness, though, you've made a poll I can't answer!

If you actually read the poll question, and my prior post (which explains the use of quotes in the subject, for those who don't get it), you should be able to answer. -_-

My answer, after many moons of meditation has given me this answer: 'yes' ^_^

That'd work if I had said men and women, but I didn't. You lose.

Ah, but you failed because you didn't include such an answer- but regardless, that wasn't my answer either.

I didn't fail. Everything is not equal, and neither are humans in many ways (sex being one of them, of course). We're different. Perhaps if men and women could be added to make one entity, you'd see a more equally-traited human being. But that is not the case.

The fact is that one is stronger, even if the conclusion is wholly perceptional. It's just that no one has the guts to pick one over the other, with the exception being myself (so far). Or maybe it just requires too much thinking for people. It's just a shame to think that I'm in a community where even the transgendered don't rally for their preferred sex, just for the sake of it. Or the non-gender-confused picking the one that's traditionally renown for its strength.

So, this is MSF, huh? This is it? I'm glad I finally decided to ween myself of this place.

I think you just have the tendency to answer your own questions. Also, I think you should meet the Emperor of Britannia, your views match his. XD

I am my own answer!?

Egads! @_@

That explains everything...

...

Which Britannia? I think there are several of them to reference. There are two recent ones, but judging by your tastes in anime... It has to be that dramatic, emo-fest that has mecha and a supposedly deep plot.

I watched a few minutes of Code Geass (you can imagine how I pronounce that ;p), but I couldn't stand to watch it longer than that. I asked my sister about it, to spoil it for me (since she's into that stuff), and I was assured that I had made the right choice for myself. Where humanity's tastes have gone awry, I don't know. I'm glad to be far removed from it all.

I do believe that Helel means Encyclopaedia Britannia.

Except that I don't. When I said I did, that was a lie.

OR WAS IT???????

You can't trick me. Encyclopedia Britannia doesn't exist. :O

And it's about time someone else cast a vote in the poll. Even if it's at odds with my vote. ;p

vote cast

I knew you'd oppose me. It was our destiny. U_U
