What's on the a-gender?

Oh yes.. I am still here, still not dead and still pondering the mysteries of life :)



SO - Thought for the day!

Are men and women truly equal??

Is equality possible?

And should they be eqaul?



I pinky swear that I shan't turn this into a psychotic feminist rant!

Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye!



Ok, so here we go...



There are obvious physical differences: bollocks and boobies e.t.c.

And obvious hormonal ones, oestrogen and testosterone. Obvious obvious obvious!

Don't worry, I'm not the British Education System and will not bore you with stuff you already know. Or would I? Muahahaahahaa- No.



Socially, men and women are about as equal as... well they're not!



For example: if a woman grows old without marrying, she must be either a 'spinster' or a psychotic bitch. It is hardly fair that a man remaining single earns himself the title of 'bachelor'. Bachelor sounds... well, nice! It suggests the guy is happy, content and respectable. A spinster is a crazy old cat woman, who takes pleasure in screeching inane babble at passers by and frightening small children.



There is a similar issue when stereotyping homosexuals. A gay guy is automatically fun, intelligent, witty and fashionable whereas a lesbian is suggested to be mannish, unattractive and to have an unhealthy fondness for ugly shoes.



And finally, on this topic, a girl who is surrounded by guys is automatically a 'slut' or a 'whore' as opposed to a guy who may be seen simply as 'a bit of a player'.



Okies so lets flip the pancake :)



Guys can get it tough too!



It may sound ironic but, due to all the effort that is constantly being taken out to make sure that women are getting lots of oppurtunities in work and play, men are often finding themselves at a disadvantage. They are always left out and expected to accept it on the terms of 'equality'. Harsh? Yes.

Also, when it comes to insurance, men are always stereotyped as angry boyracers and forced to pay a hideous amount to cover their cars. There ain't no guys allowed in Sheila's Wheels! In fact,
there are many groups dedicated to women only, yet not so much for men.

OH! And serious peer pressure to be all big and manly, when secretly they just want a hug.

Arwwwww

Poor men.

PLUS, guys have to spend lots of time worrying about the size of their *ahem* noses...
Is it big enough?
Is it too big?
What about girth?
OMG is that a WART????
Too hairy?
Bollock shaving?!
Bollock EPILATING??!! (Apparently that has been known to happen...)

Not that they have anywhere as near as much to worry about as girls do :)
I shan't go into detail... but flabby, flappy vaginas aren't the most reassuring of body parts when it comes to self esteem and whatever. And boobs. And periods. And other random body issues.

Here's something I believe to be unfair:
MASTURBATION!!

It's easy for guys, everything is right there in front of them!!
Girls are far more complicated.... clitoral stimulation... g spots... apparently there is a specific technique involved... 'come hither' motion....

And porn is all aimed at men!

But girls have more fun in the long run, I reckon, they can get away with more :D



Apart from childbirth.



JOBS?
Well, I don't see it as unfair that most of the 'top jobs' are occupied by men... 'cos they must be the dullest professions ever created. They simply ooze blandness.
Plus, most women will have become incredibly maternal or have forgotten the condom at some stage before the time they reach 30. Ahoy maternity leave and housewife syndrome!


I'll round this up
I'll stop rambling
In short:
Women and men will never truly be equal because they are way too different! Equality can never be possible as there will always be some form of discrimination and/or selectivity.

Feel free to add any contributions, my lovelies :)
