Myth Buster




"Women Are Supposed To Be Submissive And Do As They Are Told!"

       The following is an excerpt from the ignorant dialogue of so many. An initial judgement of character and customs based on demographics such as gender. Or better known as a stereotype. Now generally nobody likes to be stereotyped, yet most people do it. Which is stereotypical of society itself. There are thousands of stereotypes that I would really love criticize and diminish. However this stereotype in particular touches a very special place in my heart. I know some are thinking "How can a man talk about a stereotype on women? How could he understand?". Well, aren't they stereotyping now? But I'm not judging.
       Throughout history, natural gender roles have been implemented on women and men where men are suppose to be masculine and women are suppose to be feminine. Even though that is the natural roles that we play, when do we know the limits of these roles? Although, though women are more feminine than men, does that mean they have to be submissive?Do they really have to listen to what they are told by men? Personally, I believe that be feminine or masculine has nothing to do with being submissive or dominant. This is because I've had women in my life who have been both feminine and dominant at the same time. Even though women are not pumped with testosterone like men it does not mean they have the inability to think on there on or to be dominant. To give an example, the 2008 Higher Education Policy Institute report stated that women not only have a higher chance of getting into better schools, but they are also more likely to outperform the men those schools. Just in case you decided to skim the article I linked above, you can watch an ABC New Report that sheds relevant light on the subject. In the ABC New report it stated that women presently have five points higher than men on IQ test. So why can't women think for themselves. If they are proven to be more intelligent than men, then shouldn't they be dominant and in charge.
Think about it.
