Women's Right

What are women's right? (The mood of "A Father's Words for a Lost Child" is still in the air)

I felt burning inside me when I see these two powerful yet weak words.

I found it very contradicting...

Women know what women should be protected from but yet... the victims are still W-O-M-E-N in the end.

DAMN!!

Should we blame it on women for being too soft-hearted?

This is what I encounter after 20 years of experience...

Men:
1) They are always the one who wins the battle in almost everything.
2) They are cunning, insidious.
3) Love provoker.
4) Dangerous as in deceiving.
5) Look always comes first, heart? (Oh, I think they were already mesmerised by the looks.
So, it doesn't matter..as long as big enough, slim enough, eveything is negotiable)
6) Trouble-makers, heart-breakers.
7) Excuse-finder and good challenger.
8) You can never read their criminal mastermind.
9) Word keeper (ya right~~!! KOR....PUIK~~!)

Women:
1) Naive, weak, feeble, soft-hearted.
2) Easily fooled.
3) Insist to go on though it's obviously a boogy trap.
4) Easily cheated, easily melted.
5) Once provoked, no more mercy.
6) Scary at times.
7) It's heart that matters, look is optional.
8) Peace-lover.
9) Strong bond of sisterhood.

He led you
to the kingdom of vultures.
He ruled the kingdom
ruled the forest
he ruled you."

since the very beginning of time, women have already been marginalized as the "weaker" gender. No doubts bout that, therefore you shall not argue what's written in history.
As a guy, I know how rough it is to be discriminated and be exempted of so many privileges in life, thus do not despair o writer. We are much more intellectual in that sense right now and we see that women too should share the privileges that men enjoy these days.
the days the past when men only prove to be dominating, but now even women are holding major positions in big companies and men moving on to more "female" jobs such as tailoring, hair designing, cookery etc etc.
So relax... let those chauvinists learn to rest their egos...
(be mindful that to be a chauvinist doesn't mean you'd only come from ONE gender only)
