Have you ever heard of the property of glass where it is hard yet brittle in nature? We women who seem "too strong and upfront" to men are like that.... yes we don't expect you to pull open doors for us or pay for us or earn for us.... or be all "men" to us... we can take very good care of ourselves, thank you very much!
But that gives you NO RIGHT, absolutely NONE to trample upon our feelings just because you think we are "strong" enough to handle it. No! You do need to be sensitive to our feelings.... and try not to hurt them. Or lie to us and try and insult our intelligence. Or just insult our intelligence or our education even "in jest". Yes we are strong and we can take care of ourselves.....but that does NOT mean you do not even treat us like humans....
I agree. I don't understand since when did being strong become an invitation for people to take us for granted!
ReplyDeleteWomen care a lot about others but none cares about them ? Why ?
ReplyDeleteOye..why this outburst all of a sudden? kya hua?
ReplyDeleteProbably it would be helpful to drop this whole 'us vs them' mindset. Only develops a skewed siege mentality.

ReplyDeleteI don't think it was an "us v/s them" rant. I think it was a more one-off one.
ReplyDeleteIt is not a one off rant and neither is it about us versus them.....these things keep happening because people (please note the use of neutral people rather than just men) just assume we can take it! Whats with that? @ Bhavik: later!
