'Men and women have roles. Their roles are different, but their rights are equal.'
- Harri Holkeri
Our generation is quite busy trying to prove that women can do what men can do, so that women lose their uniqueness. Women weren´t created to do everything a man can do.
They were created to do everything a man cannot do - and the other way around.
Boys are from Mars and girls are from Venus, YES they do!
Boys, we need you!
Today I want to take up the cudgels for you guys.
'A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.' In a world where nonsense like this is celebrated by feminist movements, it´s time to stand up for the male species and recognize one thing:
Girls, be honest, without them we´d be completely lost!
10 reasons we can´t live without them ❤️
- They are braver than we are.
- They are less emotional and bring us down when we start creating drama.
- They are less complicated and need half of the words we need to explain something.
- They put things on the table and don´t need cat fights.
- They are stronger than we are and can carry us over the threshold.
- They protect us.
- They make us proud.
- They don´t need make-up to look good.
- They can be our best friend, advisor, lover and partner or everything at the same time.
- They are unique.
What do boys receive in return for all these contributions? Drama, complexity, emotions and much love. Just us :)
Outtake:
Me: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
My boyfriend: Are you okay?
Me: Noooooooo, a huge spider is attacking me!
Him: Where?
Me (pointing finger to the other side of the room): There?
Him (picking it up carefully): That´s a cute one. It´s actually almost not visible.
Me: Size doesn´t matter. It´s surely a poisonous one that just wanted to kill me.
Then we both started laughing.
Girls, stop trying to be like them. You don´t look good pretending to be anything but yourself.
It doesn´t matter that we are not made to be the best leaders, firefighters, aviators or fathers. We don´t have to.
You´d rather embrace the differences between men and women. The merger of these magical discrepancies make relationships interesting, exciting and extraordinary.
In the end all species, independently from their gender, want to be loved and appreciated. We are all insecure and disheartened when someone judges us and we were created to spread and create opportunities for a peaceful life full of love.
Thanks for your attention, I hope you enjoyed the read :)
