Men VS Women. What a topic.
Recently read some articles regarding men. That the country is being unfair to men because men cannot sue women on the basis of outrage of modesty or rape etc. That men came out worse from divorces than women as the country does not provide a pillar of support for men as they did for women (there are alot of womens' associations in Singapore but none for men i think).
All that men are trying to say, is that the world is unfair to them.
But guys, think about it. Seriously think in the position of women.
Since the earth was created, women are always the weaker sex. Guys are stronger physically and emotionally and thus are on the advantageous side regardless of work or love life. Who's in the unfair position? WOMEN.
Most people prefer boys than girls when giving birth. Because boys can help carry on their family name whereas girls are like helping other families to raise their kids as they will be married off eventually. Please do not say that nowadays this type of thinking doesn't exist anymore. It still does. The father and the in-laws will still prefer boys no matter what. When you are pregnant with a girl, they will say 'Aiya, nowadays same la hor...'. If it's a boy, they will be super ecstatic with smiles all over their faces for the rest of your pregnancy period. See the difference??? So who is it more unfair to? WOMEN.
To help carry on the family name for your future-husbands, girls have to go through monthly menstruation, endure mentrual cramps and mood swings due to PMS from approx. the age of 13. When they are pregnant, they will experience morning sicknesses, backpains and fatigue. When they are giving birth, the pain (from what I heard from alot of people) is excruciating. Heard that it's menstrual cramps x 100 (I really CANNOT imagine that). Even if you choose to give birth via a caesarian session, you still have to endure the pain of the wound and a scar will still be left on your abdomen. What are guys doing during these periods of agony? Nothing. Just enjoying their life. So who is life more unfair to in this case? WOMEN.
Last time, men work and earn money to support the family and the women will stay at home to cook and take care of kids. Fair enough, I've got nothing to say. But now, men still work and earn money. Women too, work and earn money plus cook when they reach home plus have to take care of kids and their education whenever they are free. See the ratio of work load of men to women? 1:3. Is life unfair to men? No, life is unfair to WOMEN.
True, women nowadays do have certain rights like men does. Especially now, there are women who had affairs too. Does this overrule everything that I've just mentioned? No. I believe the the percentage of men having affairs are still much higher than women (Not that I agree with people having affairs). Probably you all can check with the Department of Statistics or something but I'm quite confident that I'm right. Plus, have you guys ever thought why women nowadays are like that? Hmmm...could it be due to bad karma or retribution? Think back...how are women treated in the olden days?? (those dynasty dynasty period la) They are just like baby-production machines. Their opinions are frowned upon, they have to share their husbands with dunno how many other women and still have to accept everything like 'life is meant to be like that'. The time for retribution has come for men? Ya, I seriously think so. Even now, men and women who have ONS or affairs are seen upon with different mindsets. Men are Oh-So-Macho. Women are Bitches. The world is unfair to men?? I don't think so. Unfair to WOMEN i think.
Thus, I think if you guys want to talk about unfairness, please think before you speak. You all understand what it means by 'light travel faster than sound'? It means some people appear bright until they speak. I do not wish to think that guys in the world are like that.
I bet some guys are fuming right now. You are all welcome to challenge me with your opinions. Cheers!
