pissed!

In a world where they claimed men and women are equal, I beg to differ. It was said that women and men are now equal and there should be no gender discrimination but this was not the case. Women are still doing men’s bidding. Women are not put here on earth to do men’s bidding. If we are truly equal, then men should also iron their own clothes, wash their own clothes and cook their own meals. No, all these tasks are still done by women so where are the equalities that were promised to us? We women are still washing their clothes which include their dirty underwear. We still iron their clothes so that they can look good when they go to work but don’t forget that we women are also working which means we’re doing double the work. To say the men are the sole breadwinners in my opinion is total bullshit. Women can also be the breadwinners so what makes men more superior that we women have to do what we are expected to do?

Sure, life for women now are much better than that of the yesteryears but how much different is it? It’s not that different. Gender discrimination has always been hotly debated. It is usually the women who argue about this case because they feel they are suppressed and who can blame them when it is true? If I was asked which gender is greater, man or woman, I would say without a doubt that the woman is the greater one. I chose woman not because I myself am a lady but because we females are the ones to bear you men out there for 9 agonising months. We females are the one who are doing several jobs at one time; a good mother, a good housekeeper, a good wife and a good employee. However, there is always the situation where women are just ordered around, to be expected to wash and cook. You call this equal? Women are still being treated unfairly and are expected to walk behind their partners in some countries. Where is the sense in that?

In a different case, people said being the youngest in the family is the best because he/she will be spoilt. Well, I certainly hope the person who said that has not got a peanut for a brain. I am the youngest in the family and I am sure not being spoilt. My brother is getting married but he’s not the busiest. In fact, the family members are which include my father, my mother and me. I was there to help my father paint the whole house while he was out doing something else and coming back to give so many suggestions and ideas when he did not help out at all. I was playing computer games and my mum was nagging me, saying she hates it when we play the computer games and it was in an unfriendly tone. Naturally I was pissed off because she didn’t say that to my brother when he was playing the games for some days. Is it because I’m 19 and he’s 28? She said I was playing computer games when everyone was so busy and I should be ironing my brother’s clothes. Yeah, my mum is busy sewing the curtain, my father busy doing some painting while my brother is busy SLEEPING!

I was real pissed. I stormed downstairs, took out the ironing board and started ironing in a furious way. My brother who was half asleep said if I was so not satisfied, don’t iron. Fuck it! Here I am ironing for him and he was sleeping. And to think I got all defensive for him for nothing. I couldn’t stand it anymore and the tears streamed down but I wasn’t sad, just angry. I wish I could ask him to shut up. Everyone is so busy preparing for his wedding and he’s just sleeping there, not doing much except organising seats for the dinner reception. Yeah, like that’s hard work! My friend asked me yesterday night in a joking manner about how are my brother’s feelings about the marriage, happy or sad? I told her off by saying what’s that supposed to mean? Marriage is a happy thing, is he supposed to feel sad? I was defensive and my friend was sorry but I had to admit she was pretty blunt. Now, when I think of what my brother did, I should have said, “I don’t give a tiny rat’s ass about what he feels”.

This is the reason why I’ve been thinking about men and women being equals. Men can be so selfish and insensitive sometimes that I just wanna go and slap them to wake them up. Or sometimes just ask them to fuck off. Fuck men and women being equals because it’s never going to happen.
