I just read a blog that put me in two different sets of mind. Like on one hand I was deeply offended, angry and upset over their views, their ignorance and what seems to me plane stupidity. But on the other hand I couldn't help but sort of understand where they were coming from on CERTAIN points and even agree with some of what they were saying. To clear it up for anyone who might be interested it was a blog about how feminism was wrong and women privileges. It was quite obvious that the blog belonged to a man so right away I was like pshh what does he know and I got on my high horse and became self righteous and annoyed (and yes hurt) but the more I read the more I became divided. Because there is such a thing as women privileges in some aspects in life women do have it easier. And men are made to suffer. But I also got thinking, what this faceless man was saying about women could be said about men too and he didn't even realise it. I mean if you swapped the word women for men in his very long list of women privileges you would get almost every point and argument a women uses for feminism. And I can't help but find it sad how we can argue and fight with one and other and not realise that we both (genders) have pros and cons. There are certain situations in life when women have the upper hand, and the exact same goes for men to. No one can dispute the fact that for Years women were just possessions, we breed, cooked cleaned and looked after the children and men and that was our whole purpose in life. We didn't have any rights because as a women we were seen as weak and defenseless a pretty women nothing more. That's a fact just open any history book and it would be there in black and white. Men were aloud to beat their wife's and force themselves on them as it was their rights as the husband. But we as women fought back and got our right we found our voice and we used it and in doing that we taught our daughters to find their strength and no one and nothing can take that away from us. We as women have progressed so far and achieved so much and we should be proud! I am! And now men. Men have always been seen as the stronger sex the superior gender. They were never aloud to admit to feeling that will make them appear weak. They were the bread makers for so long the protectors. As a woman I will be completely honest and say I'm not aware of men's issues and disadvantage as I am with women's. But I am aware that they have them. I know that women have it easier when it comes to support from abuse any kind of abuse. Very few men ever admits to abuse and that's sad and very upsetting because no one should ever feel like they can't speak up. I'm aware that in most courts a women will always come out the winner in child custody and that's sickening because gender does not equal better parenting. A child needs their father just as much as their mother.
