Well its a tuesday now and I’m already so tired it seems that i’ve worked for like one week already. Anyway at least I’ve more work to do now. Hope it doesn’t overwhelm me.
Was reading a friend’s blog (I seem quite blog-surferish these few days) and then I came across this “poem”-like entry which detailed his “perfect” wife, which sort of rose very strong feelings within me. ok, first please let me clarify that i’m not targeting anyone in a personal way.
I’m quite surprised that in today’s age and “supposed” maturism in society, the status of women should be viewed as equal to that of men? True? Well the feminists will argue “hell no women still do not have equal rights.” The traditional men will say “well you can have your equal rights and go out to work but please clean the damn floor first. or were you expecting me, the head of the house to do it?”
I’m not sure if i can articulate my thoughts and feelings clearly with regard to that entry, basically the closest words that could describe it was “oh my god…” Disgusting, degrading, and to me, it makes a total mockery out of 1) education, 2) basic human rights, 3) marriage and 4) religion.
1) Education
12 years of education taught us a myriad of things. It taught us how to be rational, how to be logical, how to be practical, and most importantly, it taught us our VALUES, THINKING and ATTITUDE towards everything around us. And yes, MATURITY of thought. Well seems modernism of thought has only penetrated into society academic-wise, if my friend’s blog entry is used as a yardstick. the attitude towards women as submissive, docile and good at bed still remains, not of one where women are viewed as equal and as human as us guys.
2) Basic Human rights
Well, as i said, if you treat your wife like a prize, what rights are you allowing her? “Dearie you can have all the free time in the world, the career you want to pursue, but you also have to save 3/4 of your income a month, have sex with me when i want to, stay slim and sexy so i can get horny often, be a damned sucessful career woman so i can show you off, wash the dishes, mop the floor, keep the house clean and tidy…..” Lip service.
3) Marriage
Well its a union between a man and a woman, NOT an absorption of a woman into a man. i shan’t say more about it.
4) Religion
Morally sensitive, so if you want my thought you can always sms or call me.
All I can say to this friend of mine is: i ‘ve always known you to be like this, still, i’m quite disappointed by the depth in which you have such a mentality, especially after reading this post.
I’m not a feminist. I also have my own biased viewed towards women, but at least I make an effort to treat them as equals and definitely, I’ll treat my wife like a WIFE. Shit that reminds me of stuff again.
Shall go to sleep and stop dwelling over things… must remember that my mdm told me not to get a gf and get married so young… lolx…
