Why do some women have the mentality that a woman canβt survive without a man in her life?
The light needs changing? Got to get a man to change it.
The tap is leaking? Got to get a man to change it because most men would know how to do it.
Need to do grocery shopping? Got to go with a man to help carry the heavy bags.
Planning to travel to a place where the crime rate is high? Best to go with a man so that he can protect you.
Been eyeing that luxury handbag? Get a man to buy it for you.
Having a mentality like that is absolutely revolting.
I donβt know if this is just in Asian culture, or if itβs something that happens in Western culture too. But this leaves me speechless. It is also one of the things some parents use against their child when their child comes out as LGBT, particularly Lesbian:
βYou need a man in the household! Who is going to fix something if itβs broken at home? Who is going to protect you? How are you going to manage any heavy lifting?β
Dear parents, there are some girls out there who are physically stronger and fitter than the men who you think can take care of household needs for your daughters. There are girls who are braver than the men who you believe can protect your daughters. Stop belittling the female gender. You should be encouraging your daughters to learn to be independent and to be able to rely on themselves instead of relying on others.
Ladies should also avoid having the mentality that men should be buying them gifts all the time, gifting them anything they have set their eyes on. Instead of thinking βoh I should get myself a rich Boyfriend/Husband so that he can get me whatever I wantβ, earn your own keep and get yourself the things you want. Spending your own money is most gratifying.
