Hi everyone, this is not my usual kind of post where I share what I know or understand; I want this to be interactive. We had a discussion on this topic in my chat group and I wish to bring it on here on the Blockchain. Tell me what you understand by gender equality and feminism.
I am still a fan of the old school who believe a man should be respected as the head of the family and a woman should be submissive. I believe the greatest things a man needs from his woman is not sex or gifts, but respect, comfort, motivation and trust. I believe a man wants his woman to trust he can take care of her. He wants her to trust he has the abilities to be a hero. He wants her to comfort him when he is down and motivate him to achieve his goals.
You may want to ask, what about her own goals? Who really cares about what the woman wants? Well, from my own perspective, I believe what a woman truly wants is affection and support from her man. A strong woman has her own dreams and aspirations but she is not rude about it. She is not competing with her man by trying to take his position as the head. Irrespective of her status in life, she still sees him as her crown and pride and treats him as such.
I do not believe in the school of thought that tries to make the woman compete with her man. I could be wrong though. I would really appreciate your contribution to this topic.
Much love from me to y'all.
