Fear of Women - 2

Gender Equality

Gender equality will always be an issue in Africa and Nigeria
whether or not our women like it or not.
I'm a male...
But I'd try to be
as objective as I could...
But No I can't.

Because I don't know the pain women feel.
Because I don't know what it means to be a carrier of life.
Because I don't know what it means to love a seed and watch it grow.
No I don't know what it means to watch a 2mm seed from 20minutess action become anything or somebody tomorrow.
Because I don't know what it feels like to see what came from my
inside - Cry! Rebel! Disobey! Not Listen to me! Hurt me!

And become something else and I still got no choice but to Love.
No I don't!

The umblical cord might be cut at birth but the cord between a mother and her child will never break.

If women did not have to hustle and fend for themselves...
If women did not have to be single parents...
If women were not raped, maltreated, abused, injured or in danger...

Then I would also concur that Gender equality is not necessary to bring into order.

Then, I reasoned...
When did our mothers, sisters, cousins, nieces and wives become threats to our existence?

She is the weaker vessel but we are told to have dominion over animals not over the weaker vessel

She knows She is not exactly equal but...
She wants gender equality to be enforced in the laws so she can be
protected and also safeguard her future offsprings from threat - that is naturally what a Lioness or a female bull or a tigress or other mammals will do.

So why is the Female specie of Humans treated with such disregard for
her well being?

If the Men that should protect her wish to devour her...
Then why won't she seek protection elsewhere from the law?

And Men will still be against it?
When did our mothers and sisters become threats to our existence that
we seek to alienate them?

They are the weaker vessel but they need strength to function efficiently and live life.

And

If Gender equality and other female bylaws is the answer let us allow.
BUT willl the Male EGO bulge???...

We shall see!

Till we meet again,
I am Michael!
