Am I worth less?

June 4th, 2010 No comments

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?

Legalize GAY

yet another reason why i love american apparel. they arnt just a clothing company. they care, and the show their opinions and stick to them. i recently found one of their new shirt styles the one where it says Legalize Gay, repeal proposition 8. i loved it straight away. not because im lesbian or gay or any of that, but why shouldnt every HUMAN have the same rights? its the same as saying blacks and whites cant marry. its like are we really back to this again? wasnt it during our grandparents generation that blacks and women finally got equality? arnt we supposed to learn from history, and not repeat its mistakes. i just dont get it, why are people so close-minded? i mean why do i care if two lesbians get married? or two gays? it has NOTHING to do with me or my life. yes i might not be a lesbian but that doesnt give me the write to judge and discriminate! its so ridiculous. what are your thoughts?
