Just think about it…
why don’t men
get engagement rings
why are women
the only ones
to openly declare
themselves
off the market
unavailable
taken
how does this make sense
some men
don’t wear wedding rings
and some who do
are good at slipping them
into their pockets whenever
they feel like it
most women do
wear wedding rings
and usually keep them on
wedding rings
are just one more way
to show a woman’s
status
in relationship to men
we have been taught
not to see the deeper
meaning
in these rituals
but it’s there
right in front of us
just like the old
man and wife
as if she wasn’t a woman
but a thing
just like Mrs.
compared to Mr.
women broadcasting
their status among men
males said Ms.
would never catch on
but women took to it
chocolate on a hot lava cake
men never advertise
their relationship
to women
not with engagement rings
and not when it comes to
using Mr. as a title
unlike women
men have always been free
from openly declaring themselves
in relation to the women
in their lives

You know that old saying…
a woman can have sex
with a hundred men
and have one child
but
a man can have sex
with a hundred women
and have
a hundred children
AND NOTHING EVER HAPPENS TO MEN
NOTHING…EVER
WOMEN ARE PUNISHED
FOR WHAT MEN DO
AND MEN WALK AWAY FREE
there are no laws
that control men
none at all
because they
WRITE THE LAWS
AND THEY WRITE THEM
FOR THEMSELVES
SO THEY CAN DO
WHATEVER THEY WANT
TO DO
IF WOMEN GO TO JAIL
FOR HAVING AN ABORTION
NOTHING HAPPENS
TO THE MAN WHO
IMPREGNATED HER
NOTHING AT ALL
WITCH BURNINGS
WILL BE NEXT

Why don’t men ever wear veils, or cover their faces, unless they’re robbing a bank or some such thing? Why are women taught to see themselves as beautiful when they are hiding, covered or veiled? Let the men wear veils for awhile and you’ll see how stupid it really looks. Oh, right, men would never DO anything that made them look fragile, weak and powerless, so never mind.

Okay, so…books…QUESTIONS
Are there any novels for men, where the main character (male from a small town) weeps, is devastated by a breakup, runs away to open a bookstore that he conveniently inherits from a long lost relative, where he meets the love of his life and they live happily ever after?
Are there any novels for men that have children in them, other than the one’s they are hired to rescue, or kill?
Are there any novels for men that deal with caring for parents, or sick spouses, or kids?
Are there any novels for men where a woman is the hero?
Are there any novels for men where they are RESCUED by a woman?
Are there any novels for men where they are hunted, and kept in a basement for a year, constantly abused and tortured, then murdered, by a woman?
Are there any novels for men where they defer to women?
Are there any novels for men where men are made to look like weaklings, victims, pathetic, sad, lonely, inept, terrified human beings?
Are there any novels for men where they talk about how fat they are, talk about their thighs and body image, dieting, their nails, hair or the clothes they wear?
Are there any novels for men that are long boring sagas about family life and relationships?
Are there any books for men where the men are afraid to go out at night? Afraid to be in their house alone?
You know, I could go on and on and on and on but where would these books be shelved in a bookstore? Nowhere, that’s where, because they don’t exist.
We are constantly conditioned and brainwashed by our culture, to be something we they want us to be. Women never have a chance to find out who they are or what they can be.
Follow up to the Bored Panda post…
The post was about a device men came up with to open doors to get at women. The comments after the story (on Bored Panda) and some of the comments on my blog were about what the girl did, what her parents did, but that wasn’t the point. That’s like asking the girl what she was wearing when she was raped. It’s NOT ABOUT WHAT THE GIRL DID. It’s about WHAT MEN DO TO GET AT WOMEN.
It’s a cultural manipulation to always place the blame on the female. No matter what men do, it’s always something the female did that made it happen, or allowed it to happen. And that is always the way men deflect the violence they do against us.
THERE IS A DEVICE TO OPEN DOORS TO GET INTO ROOMS WHERE WOMEN ARE ALONE. AND THAT’S THE POINT. We have to stop asking questions about what the woman did and start to LOOK AT WHAT MEN ARE DOING TO US.
The fact that some people said her parents shouldn’t have left her alone, she shouldn’t have opened the door, and all the rest, are immaterial when it comes to the fact that A MAN WAS BREAKING INTO HER ROOM.
No one said anything about that. We have been trained to look at what the woman did, whether she has been beaten or murdered. It’s always something she did.
It’s not. IT’S BECAUSE MEN BEAT, RAPE AND KILL FEMALES. PERIOD. No one asked why he was there, who he was, was he caught, where his parents were, or anything else. Not a single question ABOUT HIM.
Women are prisoners, needing to be guarded against men at every age, no matter where we are. Females are NEVER SAFE and they are always blamed for what is DONE TO THEM.
The article was about a device made to open doors. But everyone talked about the 15 year old girl.
Although one persons said that if anyone sees the wire to pull it and maybe break his finger.
Until our attitudes change and we face the fact that the men who do the violence are never mentioned, blamed or part of the problem, women will continue to be blamed for what men do to them.
Men have developed the perfect system to be violent against women and get away with it by blaming the women. It’s really sick and evil.
Mitzi…
she made it farther
than she had the last four times
at least she was in the building
but she just couldn’t do it
she did love him
but freedom
was the price one paid
for marriage
so she got up
and skipped away
heading for sunny days
blue skies
and no strings

Speak…a poem
she never stopped fighting back
but all men wanted to hear
were the fluttering wings of butterflies
and her SILENCE

Woman…
I have no idea who this woman is. I’m putting her on my blog because she looks normal. She isn’t half dressed, her eyes are open and she doesn’t look as if she’s having a religious experience. She looks REAL and beautiful. She looks comfortable in her body and in herself. I’m so sick of seeing women posing and posturing.
Photographs inspire me, so I go through some of them on line to get new ideas, but the pictures of women touching their faces, their arms over their heads, partially naked are just disgusting. Selling themselves to the male (or female) gaze, looking weak and vulnerable. Hiding in shadows or standing in front of windows, it just makes me sick. We work so hard to make women look strong and intelligent, and then I see so many pictures where they look ridiculous (yes, that is my opinion).
When I saw this woman, I was so happy. She looks as if she could function in the world, be a force, full of intelligence and personal power. I love it. It’s refreshing and positive. She’s not a thing, she’s a real person.
Often times women use their bodies to survive. They pose and pout and look like children or easy marks. It makes me sad. Really sad. Women have been taught those things. Those looks SELL things, but they are demeaning when flashed across the screen and I wonder if their family album, the one they show their kids, would be full of those shots.
Men will sometimes have their hands above their heads to show off their abs. It’s bragging, not inviting. They don’t touch their faces, close their eyes and pose. They show strength, not weakness.
I’m sick of seeing posing and weak looking females. I find the above photo a breath of fresh air and that’s why she’s on my blog.
