Oh come on! I don't really like Obama but what was wrong with the bow? I agree It would be strange if he bowed to Hatoyama though. If he met Queen Elizabeth or another Monarch I would expect him to bow too. Get over yourselves people and start worrying about the important things in life. Not a bow and its depth!!!!

That’s why women’s tennis matches are limited to three sets, and why men and women don’t compete against each other in the Olympics

I can see your point with the above examples, but standing isn't exactly an Olympic sport now is it. The thing is, equal rights means equal opportunities for all. Therefore, men have as much right as women. We should all however offer our seats to the elderly, disabled or those with children.
