Once every month I hate being a woman! The anticipation and the pain kills me. It reminds me there is something happening in this body and can be only stopped briefly if I make use of it. Or I just have to wait and get older and older till its gone forever.
This, one of the very woman things is responsible for a lot of stuff imposed on us. So woman can't do hard work because for a few days every month they bleed like pigs (am not sure if pigs bleed a lot I could not think of another animal). They cannot be good at sports because movement could be troublesome during those days.
They should be confined to their homes and locked in isolation because they are impure, probably toxic. And they better not enter any of the sacred religious places because God or whoever that thing is does not like impurity.
Well if ovulating makes us impure once a month then men should be kept in isolation all their life! Aren't those things they have always in great numbers throughout the year and throughout their freaking life!. Even vampire males seem to have a good stock of it. They don't bleed because of it but the sight of a bosom makes it rush.
And since when did God or whoever it is start turning up his nose to impurity? Well She/he created it so they better deal with it.
Then comes the hard work and being weak bit. Guys, try shoving out a live human from your body and then talk about your strength. Even when that live thing is in our body we work more than you do.
You complain about women getting preference when it comes to the job market, or getting a house? Do a double check and see all the preferential treatment you get away with by just having a lifeless thing hanging between your legs. Something you are super proud of.
But hey guys you need a woman to get that thing working (unless you are gay)!
Am surprised!! Why you think so ill about a natural, mandatory and biological process? Ages are gone when periods were a constraint to women. In modern world, we have almost stopped thinking that women are weaker.. and seldom think women are weaker just because they are cycling. It sounds to me like you are trying to impose restrictions on you yourself, which is not really necessary. If people around you think and talk of being impure, they are not the ones you ought to be with. God never made himself, but we humans made God. So blame not God, we never know if at all s/he exists. Face the sun so we don't have to see our shadow! Hope I have made my views clear..
ReplyDeleteThanks for you comment Prashanth. I heard another story which says that since those days remind us that we can create we are treated at par with God and so how does God worship God? Well we keep creating our Gods and then raping them when we feel like. The modern world you talk about is a very small world. The larger world outside this modern one still has a lot of things which we consider obsolete, like burning brides. No one needs to tell a woman that she is strong she knows it better than anyone else does. But her biggest strength has been turned into a taboo. Why does the chemist still wrap a pack of sanitary napkins in a newspaper and then a black polythene, or sometimes even cringes when asked for one? I appreciate your views and I don't have issues with the biological process, I take pride in the difference. What has been made out of it is not very easy to accept.
