Could women owned businesses succeed without laws advantaging them over male owned businesses?

Answer 1

A relatively small percent of women owned businesses wouldn’t make it without women owned business advantages. Those businesses shouldn’t be in business. Most women owned businesses however are quite capable of making it without needing any special advantages and it’s quite insulting to view women as needing such advantages to succeed. In the name of equality, fairness and recognition of women’s abilities, women owned business advantages should be eliminated.

"Could women owned businesses succeed without laws advantaging them over male owned businesses?"

Maybe. I mean probably, but how are we going to know? This is part of the problem with these unequal and gynocentric government handouts. There is no measure of what they do or why they are even needed to begin with outside of feminists just demanding them.

If you really think about this, it's really just feminists completely disrespecting women with this assertion that equal opportunity are not enough for women to look an equal man in the eye and compete properly for any position. And by continuing to push for these advantages for females only, today, what feminists are saying is that women are inherently NOT equal, and therefore need advantages built in ALL THE TIME in order for women to be able to meet men at their level

It is saying that equal opportunity is not enough for women to perform equally with men. I don't necessarily agree with this, and neither would fully capable adult women who may not be receiving their due respect because all women become suspected of receiving these privileges whether they accept them or not.

Answer 3

How can they know that? They can't. They were refused a chance to know by simply being coddled.
Men have succeeded by not being coddled.
By coddling their own; feminists believe their own do not have what it takes to succeed.

Answer 4

probably

Answer 5

What advantage might this be?

Answer 6

Depends on what they are selling. in my profession you have to know your target audience. You have to respect them. and most of all you have to deliver the goods.

Women aren't accountable and they hate to fail. so, they are less likely to gamble unless it's with other peoples money anyway. even with laws advantaging them they usually fail anyway. Cause it's what they do. people don't appreciate success unless they really earned it the hard way.

Answer 7

I owe my job to the women owned business advantage program. Because of it the agency I now do most of my business with had to drop the guy they did business with in favor of me. Sometimes government programs do make a difference.

Answer 8

Advantaging women owned businesses is necessary because most men are sexist. These laws give women a fighting chance, but women still aren’t half way there.

Answer 9

Only in a field so inane as "gender studies" could you find such a pretentious word like "advantaging."

That having been said, your question is of no value unless you state the law to which you refer. I don't know of any law that advantages women. There are some laws that are designed to create a level playingfielding business climate, but the advantagement of women is not the purpose nor effect.

Update: You asked about laws that create opportunities for advantagementing of women. Then you start talking about the "Advantage Program." The Advantage Program is a "Program," not a law. There is a big difference BTW.

Answer 10

Certainly. There are countless female owned businesses that are doing quite well on their own merit, thank you.

Answer 11

Both can be successful, no more laws say men can do this women cant etc.
