a bit of honesty
I consider myself to be pretty understanding when it comes to the subject of sex--sex not in the sense of intercourse but in the discussion of the male and the female.
each sex has its own strengths&weaknesses that all should take time to acknowledge and respect.
but my patience has been tried one too many times and right now, I am truly sick of the prejudices laid out against the women of our time.
you can brand me as a hardcore feminist or say that I'm overreacting, but take note that you have then tainted yourself with the mark of ignorance.
my point is not that women are better than men, or that they need to fight for their rights, because I only believe that men and women are different and that each should, in turn, respect the other.
as children of God, we are brothers and sisters who are all equally sinful and are no better than one another in the eyes of the Holy Father.
I have no spare time to waste with people who make rash judgments and general stereotypes about the female sex.
who's better or worse at driving, who can do things better--who cares?
it's such a stupid and endless debate that leaves people at different ends of the spectrum, angry at the other sex and prideful of their own.
I guess I never really tried to understand how feminism came to be.
now I see.
empathy has no regard for ignorant fools.
