"For me there are no sub sections equality is about equal irrespective of race colour creed gender or anything else True but each of those have different needs, does addressing a need mean inequality? it can be especially when not implemented properly to target who its ment to help" Uhuh but implementation can be difficult , do you NOT do something because of that. In doing so you deny those in need perhaps? I think society is trying to be better by providing it. I would also suggest (in relation to the period issue) the fact that women menstruate and men don't is merely biology. It's a need women have men don't, it's not inequality to try and help women who are too poor to afford it. The bigger issue here is WHY they can't afford it which is more about poverty, jobs etc etc | |||

Discrimination or inequality is much the same thing but may mean different things to different people. To give one group something it needs is not necessarily inequality. A wee bit of common sense and flexibility is required. For instance, again re periods, I imagine the issue of women not being able to afford it was raised and the government has tried to address it, a good thing surely? | |||

" theirin lies the problem does it level the playing field it's been shown many times it doesn't it creates a bias which can swing to far in the other direction.I get it's mostly done with good intentions but is it equality imo no a good example was a check on car insurance adjustments a form was filled twice all day the same apart from the surname the names Smith and Singh were used the result was over 20% diffrence in price | |||

This is the point I was trying to make on the period poverty thread **** For those who may not know, this thread was on the back of the Period Poverty thread (I think) ****** I’m pretty sure it is, I’m disappointed it got closed as I was looking forward to suggestions of what I could use instead of bought sanitary products as apparently they’re not a necessity Lol well, I think the post went off topic as is so often the case missus. I can just see Kirsty Allsop on o new craft programme showing us how to make them though - wee bit of tinsel as the thread for Christmas time - ocht it could be fun " To itchy with tinsel surely ? | |||

"Really equality is about ensuring that every individual has an equal opportunity to make the most of their lives. Therefore, no one should have a poorer life chance because of the way they were born, where they come from, what they believe or whether they have a disability. As a result you have to recognise that certain groups of people experience discrimination on the basis of race, disability, sex and sexual orientation. Thus treating everyone the same does not overcome discrimination and does not produce equality. so is discrimination not the inequality so to break that would it not req equality not a bias towards one group? that's my thought Any bias (or additional support) given toward one group would be to level the playing field. Giving them an equal chance; in comparison to other group. It’s NOT giving them an advantage over any other group. As, going back to the definition, that would not be equality. theirin lies the problem does it level the playing field it's been shown many times it doesn't it creates a bias which can swing to far in the other direction.I get it's mostly done with good intentions but is it equality imo no a good example was a check on car insurance adjustments a form was filled twice all day the same apart from the surname the names Smith and Singh were used the result was over 20% diffrence in price " There are many examples of inequality, bias and discrimination. It will always happen regardless of how many laws are made. Sometimes such things are very personal. The important thing is we try to redress it even if it needs refined at times. The example you use is interesting as and I'm grabbing the bull by the horns here. I take it you are implying race made one persons insurance higher??? Just guessing but is that because (for example) statistically those of another culture experience discrimination based aggression such as damage to their car? If that was the case then the extra insurance is not discriminatory but based on statistics if you see what I mean | |||

So that’s not equality - as per the definition. So let me talk through an example of equality in action. I’ve changed it to keep it more neutral... A company advertise a leadership job, open both internally and externally. Now the word leadership has many different definitions and culturally different all over the world. Thus when filling in the application form internal candidates have an advantage over external candidates; as they understand what leadership means in this context. Now if said company added a primer into their candidate pack, which explains what they mean by leadership, then external candidates are getting support / help. But it’s only bring them to the same level of knowledge as internal applicants. Thus equality and not advantage. In the equality world this is referred to as Positive Action. Worth remember Positive Discrimination is illegal in the UK. | |||

It's about reducing the financial inequality that impacts those who can't afford sanitary products. Hard to believe it needs explaining!lol sorry simply dont agree theres a cost to being male or female and wanting to buy products to feel comfortable. One getting free while another paying simply isn't equal it's a bias you may note I never said it's not a good thing but it simply is not equal You took one example of the government reducing financial inequality and turned it into a gender inequality debate. There are different types of ineauality - racial, sexual, gender, financial. no I stated my thought on the subject and folk took exception Ohhhh you never "just state your thoughts ya midden" by the same token though, others EQUALLY just stated their thoughs it did then I proceeded to defend my thoughts when I'm told I'm wrong and folk can and say their own thoughts I think that's called a difference of opinion, which of course we are all entitled too hence this post still no clearer how folk see equality differently though I think folk see equality pretty much as you said but different folk have different needs. For instance what about religious needs in the workplace - prayers etc. Should folk who don't have a place or time allocated for that feel it's inequality??? if you cant fit the contractual obligation you shouldn't enter into it You lost me with that comment - what has your religion got to do with contractual obligation??? " you wrote in the workplace so if your contracted to work between hours then you should be working if you cant due to religious obligations you shouldn't enter into a contract doesn't allow it | |||

There are different types of ineauality - racial, sexual, gender, financial. no I stated my thought on the subject and folk took exception Ohhhh you never "just state your thoughts ya midden" by the same token though, others EQUALLY just stated their thoughs it did then I proceeded to defend my thoughts when I'm told I'm wrong and folk can and say their own thoughts I think that's called a difference of opinion, which of course we are all entitled too hence this post still no clearer how folk see equality differently though I think folk see equality pretty much as you said but different folk have different needs. For instance what about religious needs in the workplace - prayers etc. Should folk who don't have a place or time allocated for that feel it's inequality??? if you cant fit the contractual obligation you shouldn't enter into it You lost me with that comment - what has your religion got to do with contractual obligation??? you wrote in the workplace so if your contracted to work between hours then you should be working if you cant due to religious obligations you shouldn't enter into a contract doesn't allow it I think you'll find a lot of people would find that comment discriminating. Should an employer then not employ someone of a religion that requires that? Again they would be guilty of discrimination. Same goes for disability or gender??? I want to employ someone to tidy my house between 1500 and 1600 I have no other available hrs. one needs ten mins off at 1520 the others an atheist who should I employ Good luck on getting anyone for an hour. I do believe breaks are not required for an hour though. Quite frankly your point there is pedantic and ridiculous my point was equality should be about all things equal and nothing to do with gender religion colour or anything else ps yer hired No one is disputing that Do I need referees??? only if ya intend to box my ears of no references required Bejasus - I'd take the job unpaid if it involved boxing yer ears " no worry what size gloves ya want and do you need a stool to reach | |||

"Equality is when people stop judging women on their looks and making assumptions. Eg a dumb blonde. No one says the same about a guy. I’ve seen a guy try to mansplaiin something to a female friend at CJs who holds an engineering degree. She soon put him in his place. It was great to see him put in his place! " equality cant just be about females | |||

"Equality will never truly exist because of human bias " I think it's super difficult to have as it requires all to want it I believe that's how we end up with the attempts at equality through inequality as some have said they are looking more at equality of outcome over true equality | |||
