I went to see “Sex and the city” the other day and this line in the movie struck me and really made me think… if you are a woman, “ are you a sexy kitten or a witch”? By the way, I didn’t think the movie was that great, but as a “sex and the city” fan, it made me laugh and smile.
Now back to the line… are you a sexy kitten or a witch? Have you noticed how much sexism there is in our society today? I cannot even begin to explain the pain I experience on daily basis to see how much sexism there is in our society and I am afraid without the help of men, there won’t be any resolution in the immediate future.
As a supporter of Hillary Clinton, I have witnessed so much sexism towards this woman during her entire campaign. What makes me even angrier and sadder is that there is a great majority of women out there who support Obama. As a woman, how can you turn your back towards your own kind and side with the enemy who hurts you? Women should be proud that a woman had the chance to become the president of the United States, but because of the media and the women who did not vote for her, she no longer has that chance. I truly feel sorry for all the women out there who did not vote for Hillary. I am actually truly ashamed of all the women out there who did not vote for her.
Let’s not even mention the hundreds of articles written in the media by sexist men who bashed Hillary so badly. Funny thing is that so many numerous times I tried to write comments in reply to those articles and in defense of Hillary and because as a woman I felt so insulted by the things I read in those articles. But because what I was saying was in defense to Hillary, 90% of the times my comments would not be posted. It got me so mad, because I felt that the media was censoring what women had to say and it only posted what angry and sexist men had to say about Hillary. The way media handled this campaign made me very angry and proved to me that there still exists a great amount of sexism in this world. As a result of the media writing all the crap about Hillary, obviously a lot of voters were turned towards Obama and so many got turned off by Hillary. I say this campaign was truly run by the men in the media and thanks to them Obama will be the democratic candidate and not Hillary who is so much smarter and more experienced than him.
Now, back to the expression “are you a sexy kitten of a witch…” I believe the media put Hillary in the witch category. I don’t think there is another criterion than sexy kitten and witch on this planet for us women. If you are tough and strong and fight for your rights as a woman, you will be seen as a lesbian, or a witch, or obviously something really unattractive. The other criterion is the sexy kitten. Now obviously you cannot be a smart and strong woman and still be a sexy kitten. No, it just doesn’t mix.
Such a shame we live in a society in which we cannot change people’s minds and prove that women can actually be a mixture of sexy kittens and witches. A woman can be a sexy kitten when she wants to and can be a real witch when she gets really mad. I totally believe that women are not respected nor appreciated enough in this society. We give life, we offer love and we can do so much with our intelligence. And yes we have emotions. I am so happy and proud to be a woman with emotions. I love my emotions. Thank you God for giving me emotions! My emotions allow me to love, to be passionate about my work and hobbies and to succeed. Thank you God for these wonderful emotions!
As a strong, intelligent and beautiful woman, I consider myself happy to be born in this world. I might not be beautiful like the way models are, but I have a beautiful soul that wants to succeed and always searches for the unknown and challenges itself to learn and push the boundaries. My soul is beautiful and sexy and I am in love with my emotions. And yes, when I get angry I can be a witch. I challenge the men who want me to be tamed and they try to tame my way of thinking. I do not believe women should be tamed, women are who they are: sexy kittens and witches. So if you are a sexist man, and you are reading my post, I invite you to get over your misogynist attitude and stop hating women who want to be smart and strong. Maybe men should allow the women to be in power and see how the world is going to change and become so much different, full of love, emotions and all these bad wars that are killing so many people are going to stop.
Men often say women have it easy. Really? As a woman, I do not believe I have it easy. I struggled in life so much to be where I am. I am smart, and I try to educate myself on daily basis on different subjects. I push my boundaries all the time. In my work, I am criticized all the time. No matter what women do, they will be criticized so much. Have you noticed how much women get criticized for everything they say or do? Not only is that, but everything women do or say in a working environment received with skepticism. So you are telling me I am having it easy? In what sense do I have it easy than men do? I work so much harder than most of the men in my job and men get more credit for their work that I do. Men get promoted easier than I do in my work field and they are paid a lot more, and you are telling me I have it easy? No, I do not have it easy at all as a woman. I work so hard, so hard and sometimes do the work of two or three people, but I do not get the credit for it as men would do. I do not get promoted that easily as men do. Not only that, but everything I say or do gets criticized and is received with skepticism, so you are telling me I have it easy? No, I do not have it easy at all. I believe men have it easy. As in so many jobs, it is a man’s world out there and men unite and help each other, but women often are left out.
I am so ashamed that women cannot fight harder for themselves and unite and become a huge force. Instead women close their eyes on sexism attitudes and take the hits like they have been used to for thousands of years. Women also get jealous of each other, and that is such a stupid and immature thing. I wish women will stop getting jealous of each other and just unite, instead of feeling threaten by each other.
Maybe we are in times of power struggle between the sexes. The women are evolving and pushing the limits and trying to get in the power and the men are afraid to give the power away to women. I believe this is the case. I invite all the sexist men out there to leave the misogynist attitude behind and to embrace women intellect and emotions and just respect them for who they are: the mothers of the earth. And maybe men should cede the power to women just for the hell of it and see how the world would be for a change.
