Feminism? We really don't need that!
I don't care whether I get hate, appreciation or something in between out of this. I'm done keeping my mouth shut, because everyday I see and hear more bullshit about this topic. Just mentioning the word "feminism" or "feminist" causes people to cringe and take a step back, as in "you're one of those crazy women". So I've learned to not start this topic with anyone, to not be provocative (as women apparently are all the time), to basically just not even go there. Even when someone deliberately pokes me with these questions, I've learned to sit back, breathe out and not get sucked into their game of "who's right". All it does is pisses me off, and apparently, I'm not allowed to be pissed off by certain arguments, because that means, I don't respect anyone else's opinion. Nevermind that these arguments are formed in the sense of "you have more rights than men anyway" or "wage gap is a lie, I can come up with a statistic as well".
Let's be clear about something. I love all human beings. I do not strive towards women rulling the world or any other non-sense I get thrown in my face. I believe there were MANY injustices in the past and still are, associated with both sexes, with everyone. And I hate the phrase "men aren't supposed to cry" just as much as I hate "girls don't look pretty when they're angry". So let's just get that out the way, I'm not on this planet to jeopardize your existence, I like living in symbiosis with you. But when you tell me that we are equal and I have nothing to complain about, now that gets the best of me, because it's false. It's not false, because it's not what I think, it's not false, because I can't except other's opinions, it's false because IT'S A LIE.
"Up to 7 in 10 women around the world experience physical and/or sexual violence at some point in their lifetime"
"603 million women live in countries where domestic violence is not yet considered a crime" "Women aged 15-44 are more at risk from rape and domestic violence than from cancer, car accidents, war and malaria" "In Canada a study of adolescents aged 15 to 19 found that 54 per cent of girls had experienced “sexual coercion” in a dating relationship" "Between 40 and 50 percent of women in European Union countries experience unwanted sexual advancements, physical contact or other forms of sexual harassment at their workplace" "In the United States, 83 percent of girls aged 12 to 16 experience some for of sexual harassment in public schools" Have some women lied about horrible things, for example being raped, sexually harassed or anything like that? I'm sure they have and it's disgusting, if they did. But out those few examples you can not jump to conclusions on the whole population. How many examples are there, where there was proof of either harassment or rape and the girl didn't have the courage to tell, because no one would listen? Or she did, and no one took her seriously? How many examples are there just in recent history of a guy's carrier not damaged by A FUCKING BIT, when prooven he did such a thing? I know not all guys are like that, I have some amazing guy friends that I love to pieces even though we don't agree on every single thing. And that's why, when judging a person, I like to meet THEM, not decide what they are and what they're not depending on what's in between their legs. Has feminism gone too far? Are all women mad? Wouldn't you be, after being in a cage for houndreds of years? "Women never had to work, they could always stay at home and be taken care of".
1. It's not that they never had to work. They weren't allowed to work. 2. Let me rephrase that; they worked just as hard, but at home. Not getting paid. Which was expected, just as it was expected for men to go to work. 3. The whole society was based around teaching women how to be housewives and mothers. YOU told THEM that is ALL they will ever be good for, because they don't posses the qualities to succeed in the bussiness world. Apparently, they are under such control of their bodies, that they can't control their emotions, have their hormones all mixed up and are, on one side (necessarely) gentle and warm and loving and on the other, hysterical and slaves to their bodies, which should be covered completely, since they confuse men to the point where they can't focus on their bussiness (and that is why - also, women have no space in economic sphere). If a girl in tight skirt confuses a man to the point where he can't fucking see straight, who is the slave of their hormones again? For real though, has feminism gone too far? Yes, certain aspects have gone too far. I do not deny the fact that some ideas, presented in the sense of feminism no longer scream equality and to me, that is not correct. But no extrem is ever good and what we've had uptil now is also an extrem, just in a direction that may suit you, dear men, much more. Every order and every idea has developed in many forms and some of them took it too far, but that doesn't mean the whole idea is messed up. And if just for a second, you could step out of your comfortable privileged shoes and see, that some took it too far, because of how locked up they felt uptil now. I wish you could see who actually started this war. I'm not blaming you, you're just products of mass production, just like I am, but I'm trying to reach beyond. I wish you could see that what feminism, at least in its basis wants equality. Why am I a bitch for trying to have my share of the cake? I'm not trying to take yours, I just want to have an equal chance of eating it. Why am I a bitch for trying to make sure my daughter or my sister or my fucking neighbour could feel like she has the same opportunities as my son? Why am I a bitch for rejecting the role you chose for me and deciding to figure myself out on my own? If I don't get the job, I don't get the job. But I want to not get the job, because they don't think I'm qualified, not because I'm a woman. And the same goes for getting a job. I know there are many issues that need to be talked about, but this post is already way too long. I love you, men and you're not all the same and you can be wonderful and soft and insane and amazing, just like we, women can be all of the above. I love womanly men and manly women, even though I find these phrases unsuitable, but you know what I mean. I love all in between, because there is more to you that your sex.
