My thoughts about this & that...

Inferior or Equal?

3/11/2018

3 Comments

 

The stone age beliefs about men & women

Picture
I heard these from some of the neanderthals who still walk among us:

"Women are inferior to men because Eve was made from Adam's ribs, therefore, she belongs to him. Eve doomed humanity by committing a sin which by enticing Adam to eat the apple."

"A woman's brain is incapable of making rational decisions because she can't comprehend to the big picture."

"A woman should focus on raising kids, doing laundry, obey their husbands, and provide clean and comfortable homes for their families."

"We must keep women submissive because with equal rights comes chaos. They need constant reminders that their place is in the home." 

"Women don't have the intelligence to make rational decisions because they're too emotional. Men must make decisions for women."

Right! My opinion?
These neanderthals need to hide under their comfy stones and be very quiet! 
What say you?

I heard these as well

Man with most likely a single digit IQ to woman, "You don't have the balls."
The woman says, "I do, two of them. They're called ovaries."
The man says, "But I can make babies with my balls."
The woman replies, "Without my balls, your balls can't make babies. It's called partnership. My balls make the egg and your balls fertilize it."
"Um... but my balls are more important. Without my sperm you can't make babies."
"True," the woman replies. "But if you keep wearing tight pants, keep your laptop close to your balls, carry your cellphone on your belt and eat junk-food all the time, your balls will shrink or explode and there will be no babies at all."

A salesman calls trying to sell windows. The woman say politely, "Thank you for your call but we're not planning to install new wind..."
​The aggressive salesman rudely cuts her off and says, "Is the man of the house home?"
The woman's blood instantly boils but because she's a gentle person, she doesn't reply and hands the phone to her husband,"This bozo is selling windows and wants to talk to you."
The husband takes the phone and says to the salesman, "Listen! My wife is the financial genius in this house. She said no. Good bye!"

​​​A man visits a couple for the first time and as soon as he's introduced to the attractive wife by the husband, he walks up to her attempting to pinch her face and says, "Aren't you a pretty thing!"
The couple's teenage kids watch the interaction.
The woman takes a step back and shouts, "Out! Don't you ever step into this house again!"

The man looks at the husband who opens the door and says to him, "My wife is my partner and you've disrespected her. get out, or I'll throw you out!"

We're getting there

Slowly, but with good parenting and setting good examples to our kids, we're getting there.

Father and son sitting on a bench in the park. The boy is around twelve, happily licking his ice-cream.
A statuesque woman walks by and the father says to his son, "Nice piece of ass, huh?"
The boy looks at his father with a disgusted expression on his face and replies, "Dad, she's a person. You're an ass!"

Equal partners

Picture
It's about time to teach our sons and daughter that this is not a competition. Neither men or women need to prove who's better, smarter, or stronger.

Biologically and psychologically men and women have similarities and differences as well. The best thing about this is that we complement each other and able to form a great partnership by mutually accepting and respecting each other. 

What is your opinion?

“Inferior or equal” ?

This is so rediculous.
Much worse is the fact that you still have to write about it.

It’s like wether humans born on a Tuesday are inferior to humans born on a Thursday.

We are ALL different, but equally valuable, no matter color of your skin, gender, religion, wether-or-not you like pineapple on your pizza.

I agree Hans, it is ridiculous that we still have to write about this, but unfortunately, we do. Until fathers teach their sons by showing bad examples such as the father and son in the park that I mentioned. Luckily, this little boy learned respect from someone else other than his father.
I meet a lot of people as a nurse and see that we still have a long way to go.
Just an example of what people say might be different than what their actions reveal about them:
I knew a man for a long time as a patient and every time I saw him, he notoriously mentioned that he's totally okay with "women, colored people, and all them gays" working in the hospital and he's all for equality and acceptance.
One day when he came to the ER I told him in triage that Dr.*** will see him shortly.
His reply was, "I don't want her, I want a doctor."
I assured him that Dr.*** is a doctor.
He said, "No, I don't trust woman doctors."
As I said, we have a long way to go.

I agree with Hans, it is sad that this still happens and is still something that needs to get mentioned. Part of the responsibility for the disrespect of women lays on the shoulders of women. Actresses and performers dress to accent their sexuality and use it to sell themselves and products. As for your last example of the boy and his dad, I have heard women do the same thing. Respect needs to go both ways.
