WOMAN: BUILT TO SUFFER

The female gender was genetically designed to suffer, from her physiology to the anatomy of her creation, not sure if it's a misogynistic statement or simply an idea aimed to depict the strength of the human body with emphasis on the Woman, to the society and its laws targeted to undermine the female audience.

It begins with Physical pains of birth,pushing several pounds of meat,bone and guts out of a very tiny space,the sufferance of pregnancy to childbirth to the excruciating pain of non-pregnancy which is the monthly flow of blood,then to the emotional baggage of society's judgement and prejudice on women who strive to reach their full potentials, especially if it be that such a woman is a single mother caring for her child alone in the world. Society would rather see her brutalized in an abusive relationship than see her strive alone as a single woman looking to make the most out of life; Godforbid that she begins to succeed as a single mom- " how dare she,what's her source of income,she's probably sleeping around with men for gain"... and so forth.

Single women who have worked hard for their independence, trying to compete "in a man's world" are deprived good opportunities and slandered simply for being able to survive and grow without a man that should be her husband; forced systematically into a covert or most times a conspicuous form of dependency;Marriage!!


Then it goes on to the biases of Religion, Social Structure, Environmental factors; the suppression she must face as sacrifice for being born woman; her crime.

Somehow, Society always finds a way to blame the woman for whatever happens;be it in her home or her place of work,or even at a place of worship;

She gets raped and society blames it on the indecency of her dress sense, She gets abused physically and society blames it on the manner of her speech,

her husband cheats on her with another woman outside matrimony and a lot of times, people begin to whisper(some bold,say it out loud) that she's not a good enough wife,she doesnt make his meals or she makes his meals below standard,she doesnt clean,she doesnt give good sex,she's become fat,she's too lazy etc; reducing the entirety of woman into an object for the sole purpose of satisfying man's needs and desires; a SLAVE!


According to the teachings of most religions,a woman should be submissive and often discouraged from speaking out in society,even when it be that her life hangs in the balance.

Taking the spotlight away completely or almost from the shortcomings of the men who are in some cases the true problem, the writers and executives of all lives,allowing them the opportunity to be the most desirable in society's court.


Read this and make of it what you will. May the peace of the universe be always in your heart. Shallom
