the hypocrite speaks

i wonder why men choose to begrudge women so much - is it comedic for them to say such things as though it hurts no one? and the women who simply laugh along just to find approval in the company of men. i think once again the feminine rise has fallen on the wayside.

i feel sometimes that nothing has changed. there is no more equality than 60 years ago. no more equality, but in actuality - laws have changed, rules have changed.

but the issue i find is that people have grown too content with how things are when the change could be taken further.

no wonder even women don't want to be women. this complacency, this stuck atmosphere - no wonder we seek the company and power of men and insult even our own kind - when really, the only growth all gender has had is sexually. no wonder slut and cunt is thrown about. women have forgotten about the one collective - females - and since then, we have ceased to grow.

not saying women aren't free. they do, with the right choices throughout life, have every opportunity to reach freedom as any man.

but throughout that woman's life - she will have faced those crude looks, vulgar remarks, multiple more tests and hardships because she is attractive to the straight male in power.

even when it comes among friends - the woman will see her male friend as a friend, equal in that respect - a companionship - but he will view her as a female, a friend, but with the possibility of something more - and when that's rejected, he moves on, loses respect, or still covets.

i shouldn't be so sad over all this. truth.

  1. Well said. I've found that the most depressing part about struggling for equality is that we can't even be just FRIENDS with a guy, it's not in our power to persuade them that we are worthy without the possibility of sex or romance.

  2. I think what's interesting is what is happening now. Are we moving up? Are things changing? Women say "yes yes!" and then they show their tits. There still isn't even a female singer who can be famous without showing her freakin ass, so what's really changed?
    Now we say we're showing our asses because WE decide to??! Bullshit-we're playing the same fucking game and saying we made the rules.
    And its crap.
    So what now?
