Am I worth less?

I’m not sure why, but i’ve been thinking a lot about gender equality recently. I’ve never felt like i’ve been degraded for being a female before, not in Sweden not in America.. in England, i feel a little like the guys don’t value women the same they do their ‘lads’. I had a look at the stats from a couple of websites, Sweden is around one of the top 3 for women equality. America? number 27! England around 17. No surprise that the middle eastern countries are ranked at the bottom. What i’m wondering is why do i feel like less of a person in England? Is it the guys i’ve been around? Is it their culture to treat women differently? Is it just me being stupid? I can’t grip my head around it. I’m confused and a bit worried. What will it be like in the business and working world, worse or better? Guess i’ll have to wait and see, either way it’s a bit wrong. Why should i feel like less of a person for being a woman? The last time i checked men loved women and all their ‘lady bits’, correct? Men need us more than they think, and they sure as hell would miss us even if they wont admit it. I’m just sick of the disrespect i’ve gotten from guys recently and the way they talk down to women and about them. Maybe we should start acting the same, see how they feel?
