Men are bastards…  Or so we’re told.  But has the feminist movement come a full circle until women are now bastards too?  Take for example: you hear about a girl telling her boyfriend that he’s looking tubby lately and maybe he should think about going on a diet.  Not too shocked?  Think that’s okay to say cause he should look good for you.

However hear the same thing with the roles reversed: you hear about a man saying to his girlfriend that she’s looking a bit thick around the middle, maybe she should think about doing some exercise.  Outraged?  Feel like slinging insults?  Composing a text in your mind to that girlfriend telling her to break up with this heartless beast of a boyfriend?  Think she’s right to say that and he shouldn’t have gotten fat in the first place?  Wrong.

Our roles have nearly completely reversed!  Women have asked, nay, DEMANDED equality for decades.  But what have we done but abused that power?  We say and do things to men that if our men had done to us we would cry and cry about.  He should cook you dinner more, he should talk about his feelings more, he should buy you flowers and chocolates and lacy knickers!  But how is that equal?  What does he get in return?  Maybe if we want our men to do those things more then women should take out the garbage more, women should talk about their feelings less once in a while, women should buy their men pizza and beer and comfortable cotton boxers more!

I call for women to stand up and take responsibility for their equality and get into the mind-frame of a man for a while, figure out what they like and want from you.  Instead of giving man sex as a reward, which really should be used as a way of expressing love for one another anyway not womans to give or withhold as their men “behave”, why not next time he makes you dinner you should have a pizza delivered to his work the next day and send a text saying “thanks for dinner last night” he’ll know you truly appreciated his efforts.  If he’s in there cleaning the kitchen, you get in there and take out the garbage.  We learned it in primary school, repeat after me: “Do to others as you would have them do to you.”

Relationships are teamwork, women and men are equal.  If women think they deserved to be worshiped then they should find themselves and equally worthy man and worship him right back.
