Hmmm... Interesting topic...
I will never understand the dichotomy of the women's movement.
Let me start by saying that I believe in absolute equality. But you can't be MORE equal than someone else...
I can't understand how one moment a woman wants to be treated equally in the workplace, and at the same time, goes yelling discrimination when she doesn't get a promotion. (Don't misunderstand me, if it WAS because of sexism, yell loudly!!! Just examine your motives before crying out)
Or the woman in parliament who demands to be given a seat
because she is a woman and then wants to be taken seriously?
Sheesh, if you can't get in on your own merits, um...
you shouldn't be there.
Where did it all go astray... seriously.
What do we, as women want? I know for a fact that many men are confused.
I can tell you what I want. I want respect.
If I get it, I will give it.
Trust me when I say that I can hold my own. I would rather treat and be treated kindly and respectfully than rudely, as is quickly becoming the norm.
Also, let's not even begin to discuss the imbecillic idea of 'Positive descrimination'.
Let's leave it at:
I am not a feminist, I am an equalist.
