So I was thinking today about the years of the movement.
The players:
Gloria Steinem
Harry Reasner
Dan Rather
Richard Nixon...
And the whole slew of men in either the home or positions of prominence that were flabbergasted, injured, threatened, insecure men that whole heartedly believed that women are toys and tools.
They stooped to name calling, bashing, threatening.
They made it clear that a woman was to be told what to do and only then could they have the right to breath.
I was not in a position to know what was going on. I was not even born yet that I know of. I am going off hand on this so if I am inaccurate or flat out wrong.. let me know.
But think about it:
To get an apartment as a single woman you needed a man to sign for you. Even if you were wealthy to a certain point.
You were segregated from men at bars/restaurants. You have to be kept away from the men so they could eat in piece..really?
Right to vote: yes
Forced to be sexually harassed at work place?: yes
Told that you were never to question a man? yes
Ok what about Madame Curie? The physicist with expertise in chemistry that, in 1898, discovered the radioactive substances of radium and polonium in Paris, France.
Created the technology of making XRAY's in the medical industry?
Woman...
All I am saying is this:
Women are no different than men when it comes to the rights humanity share. The same rights that one person has in the USA should be the same as the next no matter the race or sex. Breasts or balls there shouldn't be any difference.
So what... if a woman is a bitch then she is a bitch. If a man is a ass then he is an ass.
There is always a fine line between being a bitch or an asswhole and being someone that wants to make a change happen that is fair and right.
I like a strong woman.
I like a woman that is smart and intelligent.
If she isnt then she could get boring real fast.
I dont want a woman to stands in my shadow.
or stands in front of me.
I want someone that stands next to me.
That way when its her turn to shine I can push her into the spot light.
Or that I can help get there if she needs it.
I also don't want her to try to push me into the shadows or strive to pass me just so she can.
In other words...an equal...
So...
if you think you are better than someone just because of race, sex, wealth etc.
Then think about this.
You wouldn't have any of that if it weren't for those that you hold below you and can be taken away just as easily as you got it.
