WOMEN’S RIGHTS CONTINUED.
Throughout history, men have been in control of most everything. Women always took a backseat and, for the most part, were looked upon as nothing more than servants.
It took around 70 years for women to finally gain the right to vote. And this had to be written into the constitution. Even then, men balked at the thought. The fight for the right to vote was not an easy road. Women faced imprisonment, beatings, and more. But they persevered. But why was this even necessary?
Well, as I previously stated, men were in control of most everything, including women. In the early 1900’s, it was acceptable for a husband to beat his wife. This happened if she displeased him in any way. If she said, “No”, to anything, he could beat her and could lock her in the public stockade.
If she wanted a divorce, he kept any children, and she got absolutely nothing save the clothes on her back. She and the children were HIS property. And all of this was legal.
Slowly, all of that changed. The 1960’s brought forth a new way women were working towards their freedom. They sought independence and the right to be viewed as human beings. They didn’t want to be seen as possessions anymore.
It wasn’t until 1962 when women were ”allowed” to be married and be a nurse at the same time. Who controlled that decision? Hmmm, I wonder.
Fast forward to today, and once again, women’s rights are being threatened. Men are saying children were happier when the ”woman” stayed home. But where is the proof of that? None has ever been given. Have women been conditioned to think they must stay home for the well-being of the children? Is being a stay-at-home mom believed to benefit the kids? Who does it actually benefit? What if the mom resents staying home? What if the husband cheats? What are her alternatives? What if she is an alcoholic or drug addict? What if dad is a wife-beater (no longer allowed, by the way)? What if dad is an alcoholic or drug addict? So many what-ifs.
Women of today not only work outside the home, and for the most part, they will also do the cooking and cleaning, etc. A new threat now hinders long-earned women’s rights. This threat involves biological men (who claim to be a woman) in nearly every facet of their lives.
Perhaps men are feeling lost in their masculinity. Perhaps they are now even more misogynistic than ever before. But make no mistake, men should not be able to take away any woman’s right. Whether it be in sports, jobs, equal pay, etc.
I do not agree that biological males should invade women’s sports, enter a women’s bathroom or locker room. Sadly, too many today are accepting this unnatural behavior and allowing the taking away of women’s rights.
I know this chapter seems a bit harsh and opinionated. However, from a personal perspective, I played sports in my youth. Never once was a biological man involved. So, yes, I do not agree with any biological man invading women’s spaces.
Never should anyone think that a woman’s right is downgraded to an insulting term called feminism.
Now it is up to you to think critically and consider all angles of this chapter. Open your mind and let your thoughts flow.
