When growing up men are told two things; “never show emotions it makes you seem weak and never lay your hands on a women.” Those two rules ruins the way men are looked at in society and doesn’t preserve their rights as human beings. For ages women have fought for rights, only to throw them away by playing victim. There is an epidemic that is sweeping the world and destroying cultures based on how women should carry themselves and how men should be presented in society.
When
growing up in school people hear about not having a good report with their
father or not knowing them at all, the justification usually heard is “he let
after the he found out my mom was pregnant.” Women always tend to victimize
themselves. Unless the sex wasn’t consensual then the women had the choice to
wear a condom or protect her self and preserve her future the best way she
could.
Women
usually put themselves in a situation where they can play victim. In some cases women will deliberately
poke holes in condoms, hoping being pregnant will keep the guy around. When Hilary Clinton was running for
president in 2008 she was bashed with cartoons that held negative connotations
regarding women and their status in society, during that process many women
around the world were outraged. Yet everyday women degrade themselves and put
themselves in harmful situations that they can prevent and/or stand up to.
An
incident that occurred February 25th is
a perfect example of how women put themselves in a predicament that will do
harm. In Manhattan, New York a man was in his car trying to find a parking
space, he seen a women who was standing on the driver side of her car, he
assumed she was pulling out of the space. He then waited and she refused to
move from the space they began to argue, he got out of his car and she then
decided to hit him repeatedly. He hit her one time to defend him self she fell
to the ground, hit her head, she was then in a coma.
In
this situation there were blog posts from many different places that bashed
that mans character. It said things like “It doesn’t matter that she hit him, a
man has no right to hit her back.” Women wrote the majority of the quotes that
shows how much they want to be pitied. If a women acts like a man and does
bodily harm to a man then he has the right to do the same. The most degrading
thing a woman could do to herself is playing the victim in a situation that
could destroy another person’s life.
There
is a difference between abusing someone and a person defending themselves. Society
tends to draw a vague line between what the borders are for being a women and
being a man are. There is no vague
line between being a human there is no excuse for why men shouldn’t be able to
defend themselves if someone does physical harm to them.
These two rules: “never show emotions, it makes you seem weak and never lay your hands on a women.” Should be the most insulting thing to a women and the thing men should want to change most in order to be considered equal to one another and human.
