I decided to create this thread because after so many years of observing I have come to finally understand what the old generation of feminists wanted. The new generation has lost the true meaning of that fight for equal rights and now expects to be doing the same thing men do when they are very much aware that they lack the abilities. We think men are the perfect being and we have been trying so far to emulate them. But let me remind you that we are also giving wonderful powers, that men can only dream of.
Let me start by saying this: the first feminists never wanted to be like men, but they wanted the differences to be valued which is legitimate and very right. I'll use the example of my classroom. We are more than 20 and each of us has a specific area where s/he excel.
There are those good at scientific subjects.
There are those good at humanistic subjects.
I am good at English but I also acknowledge my weakness elsewhere and I don't hesitate to ask for help. That is the point. When you ask the opposite sex for help, you are not belittling yourself but just being conscious of your limits and of the other's merits.
We can't be perfect if not, there would be just a sex alone. Yes, we'd all be hermaphrodites. We'd be able to impregnate ourselves, raise our kids. We'd be single for life. Nothing like marriage, dating and love making would exist. Wouldn't that be sad?
So, guys let's stop all these fights. We all know men and women aren't the same, even though nones abilities is superior to the other's. Because where one lacks the others excels. Haba, we wan cause our own extinction?
