SHE'S A WOMAN!......SO WHAT???
She gets into an argument with a man, he slaps her, she feels the pain, yet they tell her... She provoked him first...They say she should have been quiet and should have been more patient. She's asked to apologize to him....
She gets into an argument with a man, she slaps him, they tell her she's got no respect, no home training. They say she should have been quiet, she should have been patient. She should apologize to him...
Because she's a woman, she doesn't have rights to be angry. So, the degree of her innocence is directly proportional to the degree of her silence even in the face of oppression and brutality.....
Because she's a woman, her husband cheats on her, she's told to tolerate it to save her marriage. The barbaric and stupid excuse is that ''it is in men's nature to cheat, so she should slim down, dress better, cook better, pray harder and be more pleasant to him"
She cheats, and she's called a whore, she has committed an abomination, she's got no moral right to look elsewhere for the love and emotional support she lacks at home, she's just gonna be called an irresponsible mother...Hmmmmm
So she's sent packing, from the home they both built, with all her earthly possessions stuffed into a tiny box on her head. She becomes an outcast... (But no man gets sent away from the home even caught red handed...) She's henceforth forbidden from seeing her two older children, she's lucky to be allowed to go with her little one still suckling on her left breast. Three years later, the little one is tagged a bastard. Now, her new name is "after-three", all because she's a woman.
He is 32 and runs a company. He's tagged wonderful, hardworking, focused, career oriented, successful at a very young age.
She's 32 and she runs a company " Hmmmm, she is not even married, unserious, can not order her priorities right, a hustler, loves money, let her go and get a husband, proud thing..."
And I wonder if being successful has anything to do with a person's gender.
All because she's a woman, she's not allowed to have wits or be a prodigy, she cannot be financially buoyant, professionally successful or be treated with respect without a man beside her
Then she's tagged a generous leg opener, "a runs girl". They never see the possibility that she actually had to go through ups and downs to get to where she currently is...
Because she's a woman....
A man looses his wife to death and remarries a year after, he did the right thing, he's being praised and congratulated for moving on, after all life is for the living.
A woman looses her husband to death and remarries after 4yrs, "ahhh! so early? Are u sure she wasn't sleeping with that man even when her husband was alive? That was why she killed her husband. She's a witch! " Because she's a woman...
Just because she's a woman, if she bears a male child, its the man's son...if its a female...she's yet to bear a real child in the family. If conception and pregnancy doesn't come quickly, blame the woman...
Let's respect all woman, show love, build her pride and embrace her spirit.. If not for tolerance, women would have asked God for their own planet..only few care about them on planet earth!!!!
