It really depends where you are. I hear that women completely dominate the population in Puerto Rico, for instance.
I heard there's more females in total.

Also, I'm pretty sure even in America women on average are paid less for the same job a guy would do.
That's true. I learned it my econ class.

Short people are paid less than tall people.

Places like China and India where they really value boys over girls have had millions of "missing women" due to the technology of being able to check your unborn child's gender then being able to abort them.

I... heard there were more males in total. Only slightly though. Like, really slightly.

Yeah. D: Or putting them up for adoption. Of course, now they're realizing that men actually need women. All the poor guys are frustrated. ;( And their future is dismal cause there's no one to carry the babies unless they marry foreigners!

Which, in those countries with rural backrounds is looked down upon.
Ah the delicious irony.

Yes, apparently people dislike short people. Studies have shown that if two equally qualified individuals of different heights applied for the same job, more often than not the taller person would be hired instead of the short one.

I meant globally. It's not like we get to choose where we're born. Besides, the number of males > the number of females and this shows gender inequallity.
Also, I'm pretty sure even in America women on average are paid less for the same job a guy would do.
We're also discriminated against in certain fields that have nothing to do with physical capabilities. I'll just say that.

How ironic the human race is.
Slugs are hermerphroditic. But also not philosophic.
/getting late and I'm tired, I'm not making sense anymore.

Furthermore, I didn't say your balls, unless yours happen to be above and not underneath your penis. I'm pretty sure that's not where they're supposed to be. I'm talking about constant pain that can last hours upon hours, sometimes longer for certain people. I've heard how bad getting kicked in the balls is, that's why I said ABOVE.
Hitting from above is still able to hit the testes. And I'm not talking about hard, thorough hits either. Even taps that one thinks is "light" might be enough of an impact. Just because testes are below the penis, doesn't mean they're "protected" by the penis. Above, below, behind, front, even close proximity generally isn't safe from impact.

Everyone is discriminated against in some fashion. White males tend to win the lottery on most of them, but believing that men aren't discriminated against would be naive. Likewise, there are some jobs that tall people just can't have. Like jockeys. While it's not a fair comparison, there's always a downside to whatever 'plus' someone has.
And PR is 52% female, which is about as extreme as it gets. The human sex ratio is assumed to be 105 boys for every 100 girls, though.

Having one gender seems so boring and limited, so I'd most likely prefer not having a set one.
But of course that has disadvantages as well. Oh well, life can't be perfect.
