just because I have XX chromosomes

It is not easy to be a human called woman. I don’t say it is easy to be a man either. But if you were born with XY chromosomes, at least you don’t have to be worried a chance you might bury alive or called bearer of bad luck in some culture, experience the nightmare of period pain every month and endless pain of giving birth. Yes, men have lots of responsibilities. However in this modern age, some of their responsibilities are shared with us, women. Women nowadays are more independent, smart and have their own career. We are so much luckier compared to women in the 1960s. Back to my mom’s year when she was a teenager and got an offer to further her study, my grandma didn’t give permission to her since most of the people think a women’s place should be in the kithchen. Well, most of us today are in front of a computer at the office instead in the kitchen.

Even so, there are still some issues for example in our culture, when it comes to rape or sexual harassment, some people still condemning women’s clothing as the reason this thing happened. Meanwhile in the western culture, it is okay if men sleep with many women but when women do the same, they will labeled as a slut. I’m trying not to sound so sexist while writing this entry and of course I’m not demanding for gender equality here. Just for men out there, it is very much appreciated if you can give us, women some respect. That’s all we need instead of love and a little bit attention. For women, please try to stand up for yourself (seriously, I hate to see women that are too dependent/needy) and love yourself since we’re all beautiful. Hey! We have our international day which men don’t have. Yup! We’re special after all. J
