I got this idea from DearRicky. These are in no particular order, I’m just typing ‘em as i think of ‘em.
Reasons Why Women Rock:
1. It’s Biblical. Adam got sad and lonely and so God made him a partner, enter WOMAN!! She completed man and brought forth children onto the earth, which brings me to my next point…
2. Not a SINGLE ONE OF US would be here if it weren’t for a woman. You don’t even really need to have a man present to have a kid anymore. Science has given us the ability to replace that part of the equation, but they have yet to replace the best damned incubator on the face of the planet…Us.
3. Yes it’s creepy, and gross, but we can bleed for a week and not die…..ha. ha.
4. Women work more than men. Now before you guys get your panties all in a twist, think about it. Who says yes to you when you propose, goes through all the paperwork to change her name on her drivers license, SS card, Passport etc. who has the kid, nurses it, weans it, feeds it (most of the time) cleans it (again, most of the time) clothes it, kisses its boo boos better, helps it get ready for prom/first date, and still finds time to cook, clean, love her husband and have a career (again, generalization)?
5. Women have made more advances than men for their gender. We went from repressed, dominated weaklings, to burning bras, gaining the right to vote, fighting for and serving our country, and running it if we wanted. We have Women Chiefs of Police, Fire Marshals, Chief Justices, Senators, House Representatives, Speakers for the House, Scientists, and in any other job you can imagine. And all of this is new. Yes there are jobs that women still can’t do, like be in combat (though I believe that will change with time) but we’re getting there.
6. We’re pretty and boys want us.
7. We are strong. I mean, have you ever messed with a kid in front of his mom? I did ONCE and I got chewed out, and when I got home, I got my butt whooped by my mom, and it hurt WAY worse than my dad’s spankings.
8. Women are also soft. We know we can be hard ass career minded kick ass bitches, but at the end of the day, we like to cuddle and talk and ease our stress, and our man’s stress…which again leads to …
9. We are loving. Every women, no matter how tough, has that one person that she loves more than anyone else and will sacrifice for even up to her life to make happy.
10. Boobs. ( I know kinda a mood killer after those last too paragraphs, but they don’t look good on guys. Be proud of your racks ladies!)
Do you agree with this list? Why do you think women rock?
Ladies, why do YOU think we rock?

btw, why cant we be in combat?1?1?1?
guest
THANK YOU for this!
Yeah, I agree with the boobs thing. They just don’t work on guys!
guest
@baby__br3@xanga - because people are sexist assholes.
guest
What can I say? Thanks God for vaginas!
guest
Very good reasons…
guest
Uhhh sweetheart, we gained the right to vote in 1920, not the 60s
guest
…..didn’t women get the right to vote in the 20s? 19th amendment?
guest
Yay for us~
.
guest
But you know if we didn’t have vaginas, men wouldn’t have a use,
guest
@Angel - Ditto this.
guest
10 should read “[...] after those last two paragraphs [...]“
guest
Haha. Number 3 is funny!
guest
you`re so right about #3 . it amazes me . . .
guest
& women gained rights to vote in the 2O`s . . . i think you`re talking about blacks in the south
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - As a chick, why are you angry against your own kind?
sunflower / 490 posts
without women,
there are no men.
love this bloggg <3
guest
But we’ve always been on top, how can you outfantastic fantastic?
Plus, while you were taking care of the kids(generalization)
We were making EVERYTHING.
Without using a search engine, think of 5 famous female inventors. okay, now think of one.
Okay, think of 3 famous inventions by women.
That’s right, men made EVERYTHING.
So before you rag(no pun intended) out on us when we get home about how we are lazy and don’t want to do anything or talk to anyone, keep in mind who made this house that you live in, this city, this country, these empires once so grand, that car of ours that you drive and the screws, steel, mortar, fiberglass, plexiglass,glue and nails that hold it all together.
MAN. We didn’t get you here by thinking about sex every six seconds, despite popular belief.
Also, there are more male chefs than female, so technically, we DO cook better.
Sure, none of us wouldn’t be here without a woman, but without a man there still wouldn’t be woMAN.
guest
@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - i think that person is a guy….
guest
@kimmieheart@xanga - No. Look at her hair style and face.
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Bahahaha. Way to be a neanderthal. It’s kind of sad you’d spend so much time writing paragraphs about how men are better than women. Especially since that’s absolutely not true. I think that makes your life a fail.

for all your amazingness, we still rule! (in a literal sense)
but hell, i love women… for all those reasons except 3. (and i dont completely agree with 7… haha just sayin)
guest
love it!! XD
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Exactly why women are better. Because you’re crazily arguing this odd topic you power hungry weirdo!
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - So, because men had an upper hand in almost every thing is why man is better than woman? Because women were one of the last group of people to receive freedoms, we will never come out on top? To your point about us making children and men “making everything”, man is better? That makes no sense; in those days, women weren’t allowed to lead the household by hunting or bringing in money. Women were required to take care of children and tend to every man’s need in order to survive. If a woman didn’t she would be rejected in society.In the times of World War II, women actually had to take up the factory jobs that the men had to leave behind and produce the warfare. If women are beneath men, then how come we have made top positions in politics, (i.e Nancy Pelosi, Hilliary Clinton) as doctors, or as business CEOs. Also, i guess the statistics must be a joke, too? You know, the one that states there are more women in college than men? So women are the uneducated ones? In modern day, women are starting to bring in the same or it not, better income than men. Also, i loved your “if we didn’t think about sex every minute you wouldn’t be here”. If there weren’t any women around YOU wouldn’t be here. What are you, a wanna be son of sam? Take you chauvinistic attitude and thoughts elsewhere.
guest
Women gained the right to vote in 1920, silly. But I did like this list.
guest
haha. I love it!! Girls ROCK!!
guest
lol, every commenter is right, i’m pretty sure we gained the right to vote in 1920. I don’t think number 5 will change any time soon were allowed in the millitary but not in combat because of hygiene reasons. I love this whole list though
guest
aha. agreed (:
guest
love this post
guest
ohhh kay
guest
number 3 isn’t ‘bleeding’ those are unfertilized eggs. it’s not blood XD lol

i love this list <3

Agreed with all of this. The right to vote, thing, though… is historically inaccurate. Women were legally granted the right to vote in the 1920s. Most women did not vote until much later, however.

@LaughingMonkey89@xanga - lmaooo.

Love it!!
guest
Another reason why we rock (from a biological perspective): We don’t have exterior genitals. Ours are compacted nice and tight inside where nobody can see it. Makes running, swimming, and just existing in the summer much easier . . . nothing is sticking to our legs
guest
Haha! Hellz yea!
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Rawwwrrr, much? LOL Was a fun list. Why the hostility?
guest
I love these reasons, and yeah, we do rock. Women rock my socks, in fact. Not guys, but they’re okay friends lol. No offense intended.
guest
Hahahahaha hell yes, we are amazing.
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Jeez, SOMEONE didn’t have a woman in their life… -__-
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - I’m sorry, but your rant is kind of unnecessary. This entry wasn’t meant to bash men, it was just meant to empower us women. Sorry you’re getting buttsore about it. You’re important too! She never said you weren’t. And excuse me, there are PLENTY of women in the car-making industry, and there are women who CAN indeed help build houses. True, those are more “manly” jobs, but who gives a shit? Why can’t you just let us enjoy feeling empowered? Oh that’s right, I’m sorry, you’re stuck in the 50′s. My bad.
guest
*sings* Whatever men can do, we can do better!
AHAHAHAHA. Well, maybe not in everything since some people in Xanga could take things seriously. Too bad a sense of sarcasm or enthusiasm doesn’t go well online. -_- Anyway, I have a lot of girl power in me and I LOVE THIS POST!
guest
@goodbye__dinah@xanga - AMEN!
AHAHAHA. Some people can take short enthusiastic/sarcastic/jokingly comments so SERIOUSLY. -_- Sigh.
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Two words, a punctuation mark and face to your response to a blog that you took so damn SERIOUSLY: holy shit. -_-

“Women gained the right to vote in the 60′s, my Mother still remembers gaining that right.”
Wtf, your mom must be old. Are you referring to when the voting age got lowered? (i.e. the 26th amendment?)
guest
i don’t have boobs. ><’ i only.. sort of rock.
guest
yup awesome reasons
guest
this is true. Agreed. We’re not worthy!!
2. Well, females need sperm to reproduce, and without sperm, females cannot pop babies out. so males are needed in that sense, unless women find a way to produce their own.(it may happen in the future, haha) Though, women don’t need a man to inseminate them, they still need the man’s sperm. =\
3. Like Mr. Mackey said in South Park….I don’t trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn’t die! LOL
6. Women are pretty, and don’t forget that women want y’all too!
guest
@Aleesuhn_Muhree@xanga - There was a post earlier this week about labia surgery so thats not entirely true. plus.. ahem.. BREASTS, special bras allow you to do what you can do… though I’d LOVE to see a track and field event where women arent permitted to wear bras at all. plus, the fastest woman sprinter doesnt have balls and she’s no where near as fast as the fastest male sprinter… or swimmers for that matter.
@iampeezy@xanga - @goodbye__dinah@xanga - @KzNetty@xanga - you all need to chill out. i felt the same way he did when this showed up in my email box. not to mention a new posts like this gets written 3-4 times a year on the xanga subsidiaries. his rebuttal is no more ridiculous than the initial post lol relaxxx. if anyone’s “butt-hurt” its you all for hissing & jumping down @Rien_Jabura@xanga ‘s throat about it. Seems you all come from the school of “everyone is entitled to hers or his own opinion.. freedom of speech!! …unless you disagree with us”
guest
Haha.. some boys are pretty too!
guest
Bravo. Very entertaining. Especially this bit Women have made more advances than men for their gender. Turn to VH1 and watch shit fall all over that logic
I could have fun with single point on this list but its 5am and me smiling to myself at all of the high-fiving is better than typing out a long winded “PSH” when this post was meant just for fun. So enjoy your girl power moment ;p its adorable.
side note : the illustration that inspired that photo was painted by J. Howard Miller. Entitled “We Can Do It“. wanna know how i know…. because i looked it up the LAST TIME a post like this was written… that used that SAME image.
guest
love this post. women rock!

“3. Yes it’s creepy, and gross, but we can bleed for a week and not die…..ha. ha.“
love it.
guest
@erahslover@xanga - I don’t know if this is a dumb remark/question.. but if it showed up in your email inbox, wouldn’t that mean you’re subscribed to lovelyish… which is pretty much a girls blogging site so posts like these aren’t exactly out of the ordinary?
guest
‘We can bleed and not die!’ Just awesome! LOL. No one can beat that!
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Hm, if you’re so fantastic, why don’t you make your own 10 Reasons Why Men Rock? LOL. Just a thought.

No one likes Moobs Dx
guest
@Angel - It wasn’t put into action till the 1960s. get your history straight ladies.
guest
Sure these are good reasons. But us girls can’t neglect our men. Can you imagine the world without any guys? that would be WAY to much Estrogen and Drama in one world. Us women are really only out to get each other. don’t deny it.
guest
Women got the right to vote in the 1920s.
guest
i absolutely LOVE 3 and 6 how true are they? absolutely true
This post definitely made me feel prouder to be a woman. <3 thank you!
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - actually, the reason “men” made “everything” is because you had the resources to create them. obviously the number one thing was EDUCATION. while women were forced to do the “barefoot and pregnant” routine, men were able to go to school and get an education and be able to create the many things we have today. and really you should be thanking women because if they didn’t give birth and slave away to make sure their sons got the education they needed, we wouldn’t have these inventions. and have you realized that it’s mostly MEN that contribute to the corruption and death of millions of people? of course there are women who have done a great deal of damage, but as men have created things that brought advances to society, they have destroyed groups of people and torn them apart. and seriously? men cook better than women? i would MUCH rather eat my mama’s home-cooked meals than to go to a restaurant only to have a male chef cook me some tiny dip-shit they call a “meal”.
guest
Women can serve the country though, even if they can’t be engage in direct combat, which is an advancement for us.
guest
@x__BeautiifulxDiisaster__x@xanga - im subscribed to all of the xanga subsidiaries(when you comment on it once they ask if you’d like to subscribe… far easier to say yes than to deal with that same pop up again and again when/if you comment frequently). just because i happen to be male does it mean i should just ignore semi-monotonous/annoying subject matter? Id love to invite you over to mancouch(which is supposed to be “for men”) and continue with that statement when the 30 or so women chime in on each subject(laregely in protest) before even one male shows up and reads it(that is, if it isnt already written by an actual woman).
I sure hope you weren’t insinuating that I shouldn’t have an opinion on this post because it was meant for only women to read… or that I should just stfu because this is how things ARE here.
guest
@omgitsCHARmander@xanga - I hope you realize what you’re actually saying here… exchange the words “men and/orwomen” with any variety of ethnic groups, nationalities or religions. I hope that paints a picture for you to better serve your judgment in what you write later. My assumptions are CLEARLY a reach, but the tone in which you wrote that wasn’t without provoke. I think that particular dude had more problems with what was being said in some of the commentary and not necessarily the post itself, but instead of confront the 20 or so people individually(which is how I WOULD’VE carried it, more fun ^_^) he went after the post itself.
This post just further proves ONE thing… “Dear Ricky” is the king of xanga controversy… haha, even indirectly. That crafty bastard. CURSE YOU RICKY!! &hearts:

@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Melita Bentz, Marie Curie, Mary Anderson… OK, I got 3, there. Maybe they aren’t as famous, as, say, Thomas Edison, but bet he wasn’t a full time mom and housewife. Except for Madam Curie, these women were ordinary housewives because they lived in a society where they couldn’t be much else, still they were creative enough to make revolutionary things that to this day are widely used. And nowhere in this post does it say men suck, for you to feel the need to come and defend your type. Guess you were jealous for not being able to bleed for a week and not die.
guest
Yay for tits!
guest
that’s correct!
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - That’s because you wouldn’t let us, dipshit.
guest
Teeheeee, pretty awesome list.
guest
@erahslover@xanga - ok, ok i admit it. you’re right.
and DearRicky IS the king of controversy.
which it’s funny because i suscribe to him XXD
guest
@erahslover@xanga - You do know for my comment which was a few sentences, you sure did look into it quite a bit.. if I wanted to tell you to stfu or that you’re not allowed an opinion (which is ridiculous) I would have said it. I was just pointing out it is a girl’s blog site so of course there’s gonna be silly posts like these. I see similar posts in the male perspective on man couch and just shrug it off because it’s meant in fun, not to insult.
guest
i just threw up in my mouth a little.
guest
@x__BeautiifulxDiisaster__x@xanga - haha, all im saying is the majority of those “silly posts” are either written by women, or have a predominant female congress in the comments. my lengthy reply doesn’t negate the fact that what I got from what you wrote was “hey, this is a woman’s blog, get over it”
@omgitsCHARmander@xanga - haha me too. he’s like brocoli to me… I normally hate him.. but every now and again he’s cooked JUST right so I actually enjoy it
guest
This list sucks. I agree with number 2, 5 and 9. I can’t tell if you’re trying to be taken seriously of just being funny with the rest of them. I certainly HOPE you’re making jokes, because saying women ‘rock’ because we bleed for a week and don’t die? Come on now, that’s stupid.

<li class=”itemsubmitter”>ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - I think @Rien_Jabura@xanga is a guy!
And women aren’t allowed in combat for very good reasons, and personally I don’t think that policy should change any time soon.
guest
haha, nice.
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - But who made the man that made everything?
I’m sorry but unless you’re fungi, bacteria, or some weird amoeba creature, most creatures on earth require two (or more) sexes to reproduce. It’s a partnership. It’s not really about who’s better, who did this, who did that… Men and women need each other. I mean, men may have invented many things, but who gave birth and raised those men? I know it’s lowly to think of such tedious tasks but if you were to bring into this world the next Einstein, you wouldn’t feel a little proud of yourself? Hey, I raised that kid! And as times are changing a lot more women are able to explore different roles rather than childbearing. Just because in the past it’s been mainly men doesn’t mean in the future it will be man-dominated. Also- Marie Curie, Rosalind Franklin, and Jane Goodall…

#6 sounded vapid
as for #5, we progressed further because we had a lot more things to gain than men did, i.e. we had further to go. men were already at the top, they didn’t really have to progress much.

guest
I’m a woman and I think women rock for a lot of different reasons. But not necessarily because of what we’ve done as compared to men. I think we rock just because of who we are. Same thing, I think guys rock-just for being who they are.
As a woman, I don’t feel the need to have to one up my male counter parts and friends. I’m secure as a woman.
I think it’s really silly to find our coolness based on what we’ve done that others haven’t. I definitely don’t agree that women work more than men. Generalization right there. And I don’t think we’ve done more for our gender than men have, although the feminist movement might have gained more attention than any other.
I’m happy being a woman because it is wonderful to be a woman. I am my own kind of woman, and the boys know I can hold my own ground-but I don’t go out of my way to prove it to them. I know, and that’s enough for me.
I’m stronger in areas that they’re weaker in, & they’re stronger in areas I’m weaker in. It’s a win win situation if we’d both be willing to learn from one another, and accept help from one another.
There’s not a whole lot of difference between women and men when you get right down to the essentials.
Just an x chromosome.

@kryng03@xanga - thats is very true, and theres no way to turn it feminine either, like Alex doubling as a girls and guys name.
guest
I love all of these comments from hyper sensitive men complaining about this post. All this post does is state positives of women, it in no way degrades men. Of course we need both genders to make the world go round but in a world where women are pretty much only valued for their looks, it’s nice to get positive reinforcement in other areas.
The fact of the matter is that women are fully capable of inventing things as well but we were even given the opportunities to do so in the past, and, even if we were incapable, raising a human being is nothing to scoff at. I’m pretty sure Thomas Edison’s mother majorly shaped who he was.
guest
Hoorah!! and that picture is epic. Is it who I think it is?
Ps. women can’t be in the military because 1 in 3 get raped and 75% don’t report it.
guest
@fauxer12@xanga - weren’t given the opportunities*

I don’t like this, I think it’s a bit sexist (As a woman) defying the entire point of it!

@Rien_Jabura@xanga - If you personally did all those things, I wouldn’t complain about it if you came home from work and didn’t do anything. But since you didn’t, shut up and ask your mother if women are as worthless as you seem to think they are.
guest
i wanna cut my throat. i hear this all the time…who cares! what about equality…im all for equalities…men and women…
everything is one sided for most women…most men….
im a guy that doesnt see women as greater or lower than men they are on the same level as them.
and go a head and argue that your not…and men have it better.
society and human kind has corrupted everyone….
socially we are all fucked…
…and i have no valid point….
just tired of hearing that same things over and over.

I find lately we are more goal oriented and will work our asses off to get out of our parents house. Lots of young guys prefer to sit around and let mommy do his laundry, cooking and that is less productive. We cherish the value of freedom more than men, therefore, we work hard to acquire it through education and discipline. The oppressed seem to value their opportunities more than the non-oppressed.
guest
Yeah, we have a period and maybe childbirth to deal with, who’s the fuckin’ pussy ass little bitches now boys?

note that once woman was created, God declared his creation “very good.”
man alone was only “good”

Without getting into the age-old debate, I think I’ll just repeat what an elderly lady in my hometown once said, that she

We rock for all these reasons, you are so right! I can’t think of any others right now.

LOVE !

1. It’s Biblical. Eve was made from Adam’s rib. God didn’t directly create her like he did Adam. Therefore, secondary.
2. We wouldn’t be here without men either.
3. Yes it’s creepy, and gross, but we can bleed for a week and make excuses to go bat-shit crazy and stuff ourselves with candy and chocolate.
4. Women work more than men, but they still rely on a man’s hard-earned money to get them the shit they want.
5. Women have made more advances than men for their gender… But those roles and positions wouldn’t been created were it not for men. Name me jobs created by women besides “wife” and “mother”, give me an inventor.
6. “We’re pretty and boys want us.” Unless they’re gay or rational.
7. “We are strong.” Women complain about a light tap in the face (along with everything else) and then call themselves “strong” for enduring child birth. You chicks make no sense..
8. “Women are also soft” Being over-emotional and insecure is considered “soft”?
9. We are loving, only if you have a big wallet.
10. Boobs. (I can’t argue with you there)
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Someone logical. Finally. Thank you.

@baby__br3@xanga -
I actually asked a woman Marine that last month, she said that in combat you go days without showering or eating and while its not healthy for the men either its a extremely bad environment for women since we have to maintain a body fat percentage to not screw up our menstrual cycles and such which is already low for women in the military with the intense training they go through. The not showering is worse for us too since we are more at risk for infections. She also said that women truly are a distraction in battle, it upsets people more when women are being shot and killed or raped and tortured than men, along with the whole sex thing when your out there for months. More risk for being raped by the men in our own military as well as the other.
When she talked about it like that I could see it made sense, especially the body fat and infections part which is extremely true. Our bodies are just way more complicated and require more care to keep us healthy
because we are so awesome!

@Rien_Jabura@xanga - just because there are more male chefs than female chefs, does not mean men cook better.
the teaching field is very female-dominated, it doesn’t mean men are shitty teachers.

Hmmmm….
Yes, women do rock and they are wonderful, and my Lady is the wonderfulest….but please remember, ladies, that while you are at home rearing the kids (at least until age 5 when they go off to school), we men tend to be out providing for the home, the clothes, the roof over the head, the food for the table, and the dinero to pay bills, rent, your shopping fees….and that ring that we proposed to you with? It didn’t fall out of a tree, nor did that honeymoon just kind of appear from thin air. And trust me when I say: we won’t have a problem in the world shooting someone with real bullets who’d dare lay a hand on you in anger or lust. And while you may kiss their boo-boos, we will teach them how to grow up, as well as size up the date for prom, letting any guy know in no uncertain terms that we take our daughters’ purity as serious as the guy takes his….well, you know…seriously (and that shotgun over the fireplace? Yes, we DO know how to use it, and we WILL use it if our daughter comes home crying)…
Oh, and by the way? We love doing all of those thigns for you, and most of us won’t count the cost…
Just my two cents’ worth
guest
Oh yes we are.
guest
So… you rock because you’ve made the most of your subordinate social role and maladaptive physiology. Congrats?
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - a woman invented the hot comb, hair relaxer, and diapers
with a search engine….a cooking stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, frikkin electric hot water heater. All those male chefs owe it to a woman.
But in general, we all are awesome.
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - btw, I looked it up and until the late 1800s, women weren’t allowed to get a patent. They weren’t allowed to own property or enter legal agreements in their own name. A woman invented a new corn mill but had to patent it in her husband’s name. So really, who knows what inventions were made by a man or his wife.

@Rien_Jabura@xanga ”keep in mind who made this house that you live in, this city, this country, these empires once so grand, that car of ours that you drive and the screws, steel, mortar, fiberglass, plexiglass,glue and nails that hold it all together.”
how do you know your house wasn’t built by a woman? how do you know that the car you drive, the screws, steel, mortar, fiberglass, plexiglass, glue, and nails weren’t all made by a woman? what you said was complete and total bullshit. yes, our country was “founded by men” and yes most empires were started with men… but what about Queen Elizabeth? what about every first lady that’s been behind every president, helping him, supporting him, and loving him? there have been plenty of women architects, plenty of women working in factories, plenty of women doing everything that a man can do. just because you’re a man, and maybe you “did it first,” doesn’t mean that you’re an almighty God and women wouldn’t be around without you. maybe before you go and, unnecessarily, might i add, contradict a positive blog FOR women, you should get your goddamn shit straight.
cherry blossom / 38 posts
@JandJinJapan@xanga - do you not realize that MOST mothers are working mothers? most women can work, take care of their children, love their man, and be home in time to make dinner. women don’t rely purely on men to pay for their “shopping sprees” or rely on men to pay for everything. women have come a long way, and part of that involves working and being a mother and wife. you make it seem like women have taken a thousand steps backward on the evolution scale and are still staying at home, doing nothing but cleaning and cooking all day, and that’s not true at all. also, traditionally, yes, you do buy our engagement rings… but what about the things we buy you? and are you forgetting that, traditionally, the wedding and honeymoon are paid for by the parents of the bride? women never asked you to do any of the things you so proudly brag of being able to do in your comment, so frankly, your two cents worth isn’t really worth anything to me.

#4 only applies(and not completely) in the traditional gender roles. To which case, the above picture should not be attached. Which, by the way, has become
so overused that i’m afraid it may have lossed all it’s power.
This kinda felt like a good example of another posters point made about the “Chivalry is dead” versus “I’m indepedent” contridiction.
Fact is, women are wonderful. But i think this journal missed on truly showing it. But maybe it was just a joke.

Damn straight. That, and we don’t even need men in our lives to complete us anymore. We’re effing awesome.

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - I don’t like you.
If you’d take the time to research things, you’d realize, as usual, your “facts” are wrong. Rien seems to be male, through reading their blog. And if you knew this and was simply making a joke about what they look like, I doubly don’t like you.
But I doubt that bothers you. You seem to relish people disliking you.

@Rien_Jabura@xanga If men hadn’t built houses, cities, empires, etc, women would have been perfectly capable of figuring out how to manage by themselves. This is what we call adaptation, and all species and genders are capable of it, otherwise the earth would have become a desolate place and life in general (possibly excluding bacteria) would have become extinct a LONG time ago. As for there being more male chefs than female chefs, it doesn’t mean men cook better. There is such a thing as quality over quantity, and for that matter any given chef of either sex may be better than a chef of the opposite sex.
Besides, aside from our sex organs and muscle mass, gender roles are just a product of evolution and conditioning. Guys could have been wearing skirts and heels and been oppressed, until similar oppinions evolved into women being chosen to experience said circumstances..

@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - Don’t take the comment on the picture as a direct criticism of you. Just an observation on it’s cliche use now.
It’s good to want to boost womens self esteem, but i think to do so also requires destroying the stereotypes that help keep our society of women and men at
lengths from eachother, and therefore somehow at eachothers throats.
Dually noted on the lossed = lost, i think most can understand it without the point out
guest
you still need sperm donors. and the reason we haven’t made as many advances is because we started out on top. don’t leave out details to exaggerate your point.
women don’t work harder, either. they just complain more about it. men have to actually do the proposing, including finding a ring that will satisfy her, and carry her up the stairs on their wedding night. who caters to the woman’s every need while she’s pregnant, pays the hospital bill, feeds, cleans, and clothes the kid (most of the time), teaches their sons how to properly treat a woman, protects their daughters from guys who don’t know how to treat a woman, find dinner because women don’t like to cook for their husbands anymore, love their wives and have a career, often doing the hard, dirty work that women won’t do. we fix your cars, build your houses, keep your heater and air conditioner running, pick up your trash, snake your toilets, and keep from slapping you when you dare put yourselves above us.
guest
exactly, God knew men needed us from dee veryyy beggining.

Boobs and vaginas are all you got. Men have
1.) Inventions under their plate
2.) combat skills. They have defended earth since the beginning of humankind.
3.) are the greatest writers
4.) Are the greatest actors, in fact I would think you know this since most modern day actresses are bitches, sluts, or drug addicts ( and I know so are we, but we don’t give a fetallio in a bathroom for it stall we keep it to ourselves.)
5.) Most women have never worked hard. Just look at Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian, two of the most “Powerful” women who have never worked a day in their lives except of course to boost their waning fame by posing nude anywhere they need to . The true genius behind them were their male relatives, one created a chain of hotels, the other defended OJ
6.) We are the richest people in the world, and we deserve it.
7.) When’s the last time a female president has negotiated a revolutionary program that will alter mankind for ions. wait you guys haven’t even reached the getting the presidency stage.
8.) Einstein. Socrates. Aristotle. Napoleon Bonaparte. Julius Caesar. Patton. Bell. FDR. Lincoln. Jean-luc Picard. Ted Nugent. Bob dylan. Churchill. Washington. Samford. Leonard Nimoy. Matt Damon. Simon Bolivar. Fidel Castro. Christopher columbus. Zefram Cochrane. Yoda. george w bush. Ronald Reagen. Seth Rogen. Plato. Alexander the great. emperor Nero . Alan Moore. Charles dickens. George Lucas. Gene Roddenberry. Frank sinatra. Walter cronkite….. and many many more. we could make a godamn army of great men while you’re stuck with Lindsay lohan commanding a group of bimbos that would get over run by even the power couple of all male power rangers and male fans of the gilmore girls.
9.) We don’t go through periods.
10.) we kill things
11.) we created the keyboard. Think about that while you’re coming up with more reasons.
12.) Men make the best sports players. We have NBA. You have WNBA, what television station is that on?
13.) Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix. lady gaga and taylor Swift. get the point.

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - Slimey “dyke” shit. Sadly though, true to form with you at the moment. Arrogant, self-obsessed, female-supremacist attitudes such as expressed in this post are exactly what leads to the kind of further self-obsession as portrayed in your (stock) reply. The kind of thing which, of course, if voiced by a man would have him called a pig!
guest
@Yulon@xanga - You’re right, you’re right, even just for your 11th point, and you could add the entire computer, the internet, the electricity needed to power it etc etc etc. Also, as far as No10 goes, women can kill…taken a look at the abortion statistics anybody?
guest
@Shattered_Reflection13@xanga - Yeah, yeah, besides this, and besides that, it’s all just made up. Typical vague, liberal, “social construction” stuff. The gender roles ARE the gender roles. They are not a product of ‘conditioning’, they do not evolve, they are inherent and perpertual. And what further bullshit…men DID do all these things, but women allegedly “could have”, so it all doesn’t matter? NEITHER gender can “adapt” by themselves, the genders cannot exist in a vacuum, neither gender can exist without the other!
guest
Women do NOT rock…Men Rock! In a way, women ARE rock, because they inspire rock. Men rock because of women, men rock for women. Men Rock!
With your “points”…look right at the first one, that Eve, woman, was sent to complete Adam, man. Man needed woman, to love him and care for him, not to hate him, rebel against him, hurt him, take him and his ideas and labours for granted, not to list ways why she allegedly can do without him, like this post does. And CRUCIALLY…woman was sent to COMPLETE man! If something completes something else it directly implies that there is a beginning, a half, a foundation, that needs completion, AND also that this second part would be INCOMPLETE itself without the first!
AND, replying to something that is so insane it seems insane to have to even mention it…HOW MANY OF US ALSO WOULD BE HERE WITHOUT A MAN?
guest
As one who studies biotechnology, technically speaking, you don’t even need a man for the sperm creation. Only thing I can guess was drunken bet and to see if it could be done, because personally, I never realized there was a shortage of sperm so never thought there was a reason to create it artificially. Though they have done it with eggs as well.
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - maybe it was only made by men because they had the opportunity to, and unlike oppressed women at the time?

@S_K_O_T@xanga - im not bashing men. this is a post about women and how we are awesome. its meant to raise a womans self esteem and help her feel better about herself.

@Yulon@xanga - I think before you start trying to sound “intelligient” you should really look up your facts. In the top 50 richest people in the world, low and behold .. MANY women.. including Susanne Klaten, Jacqueline Mars, and Abigail Johnson.
Women have also contributed tons! Emily Dickinson? Jane Austen? Mme Curie? Anne Frank? There hasn’t been a woman president yet but I guaran-fucking-tee there will be someday and there most definitely have been Queens.
“You kill things.” How is that even something to be boastful of? Women can kill things too, moron.
And you compare Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, and Lindsay Lohan to all successful female entertainers? There are a MILLION A-List celebrities that are women. Angelina Jolie- who has won tons of awards and contributes so much. She’s also had numerous blockbuster hits. Not all female celebrities sniff their career up their noses. There are men who do the same fucking thing. Heath Ledger? Kurt Cobain? Robert Downey Jr.? The industry is all the same, it has nothing to do with sex.
You’re the utter definition of an uneducated, chauvinistic pig… Hence the reason why you’re so miserable, you have to come up with 13 absurd reasons why you think you’re high and mighty. Just to clue you in, on that long list of men .. was your name on there? It seems that it isn’t. So how about instead of degrading women, you find your niche in life and get a hobby.. or maybe a girlfriend. If you already have one, I hope she runs.

guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - Oh, yeah! Yet another male-bashing post, a man rightly responds against it and HE’S going to be the reason for further male-bashing??? You have “zero respect” for me because I shone a light upon abortion in the midst of this female self-adulation??? So, what, you ‘respect’ the droves of women who are murdering their unborn babies??? If there is anything women DON’T need it is yet more self-esteem! This is an age that is simultaneously divided between endless female adulation and male-bashing…so when you author a post like this you ARE bashing men! Spinning your wheels now in denial, whilst managing to add further spite, proves again what I say about girls and women now feeling free to say and do whatever they want, seemingly sans consequence. You are proving yourself to be lowly, despite your heightened sense of your and your gender’s importance…and showing yourself to be without class…the class of a lady. There is never a good reason to bash men, and neither is my speaking the truth a reason.

@S_K_O_T@xanga - you directly attacked women who have abortions without knowing anything about why they did it.
that is ridiculous. please do not talk to me anymore.
guest
@Shattered_Reflection13@xanga - It’s staggering that you can even think of saying such a thing, let alone actually type it out…whilst living in, I presume, either a home or an apartment, on a computer, on the internet, using electricity…all things that men have accomplished, by ‘making thoughts’. It’s really flabbergasting that so many conceited females, when confronted by men speaking against their audacity, resort almost instantaneously to penile insults, to mockeries about alleged “compensations” for penis size. Well, in my own defence, and seeing as how YOU spitefully brought it up…and Lord knows I’ll probably get grief for mentioning it…I don’t need to compensate for anything!
And compensatory or not, you’d better realise that it’s a DARN GOOD THING that men have accomplished all those things that you sit back and take for granted, undeservedly.
Yes, I make thoughts…I make a lot of thoughts.
What are YOU making? What are YOU all compensating for with such spite-filled conceit?
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - You CANNOT say that, after the fact, AFTER you have taken it upon yourself to bash men, to someone who is hurt by your bashing of men, you CANNOT back-date it!
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - No, no, you FORFEIT the right to demand who doesn’t speak to you after promulgating such misandry! The VAST majority of abortions have no valid reason! Widespread abortion directly attacks children and society, and posts such as yours, and the attendant attitude, directly attack men!
guest
@Nellie0x@xanga - It’s never less than shocking, that so many girls and women can make those digs about men’s loneliness, and threaten further of the same, yet STILL picture themselves as the ‘good’ ones! Is YOUR name on any list of the greats? Is degrading men somehow okay, but for a man to respond to that “wrong”? His 13 reasons were in RESPONSE to an exaggerated, to say the least, list of reasons of why WOMEN are so ‘high and mighty’!

@S_K_O_T@xanga Yes, I do still live at home! Being 19 is my excuse for that! I am unelmployed due to waiting for the establishment I have been hired to work at to open, I can not yet afford college seeing as I’m in credit card debt due to the trip to Idol auditions I booked but never made, so I really do have nothing better to do! The fact of the matter is, you came after me with some hilarious genrelizations, and being a guys girl, I had to mess with you. I’m quite intelligent and obviously better informed than that, and you could be too if you put in the effort. Besides, there are always two or more sides to every argument, so regardless of our opinioins neither of us would ever win lol. P.S. You can’t even call being born an accomplishment! Your mom did all the effort!
Honestly, with all the guy friends I have, you seem fun to talk to (I abuse them as well). Lets make hilarious sarcastic remarks to each other to brighten our days
guest
i really wanted to like this post, but i do not.
1. yes, alienate all the people who don’t believe the bible. do it right off the bat.
2. not a single one of us would be here without a man, either. science can’t replace men. IV procedures require something of their production. plus, men are more important than just for their gametes.
3. well, this one was funny.
4. this assumes men should be the ones to propose, and that women should subsequently change their entire legal identity to accommodate their new relationship status. yes, way to say, “yay women!”
5. did you really just call pre-suffrage women weaklings? really? they got you your fucking right to vote. i also hope you didn’t intend this to be in chronological order.
6. we rock because we’re pretty and guys want us? are we worthless if they don’t? because i’m thinking we exist for more than to be aesthetically appealing to the opposite sex.
7. yes, women are strong, and i was hoping you were going to talk about childbirth or something unique to women. men tend to be physically stronger though.
8 and 9. are not exclusive to women.
10. that is true, boobs do not look good on guys. but i don’t think lots of male features look great on women, either.
guest
Boobs are hella important. Not a mood killer at all.

@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Actually, she wasn’t ragging on men. She was just pointing out the things that are good about women. Notice how it’s called “Reasons Why Women Rock”, not “Reasons Why Women Are Better Than Men”. The only one who’s being sexist here is you.
This is also why it’s important to have posts like this one, to remind women that we do rock no matter what a few stuck-up people say. The same goes for guys, although you hardly ever find people being sexist against them.;3
peony / 1 posts
Wow!!! That is true in a sense, but remember woman wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for man thus woMan, and furthermore, Women still can’t concieve with the help of the male sperm, so you still need man. There is no science that can replace that and if you mention cloning than you don’t need a woman for that. so you really can’t have one without the other. Women are great I agree and we definately need them. But, get it correct. We need each other and if you exclude one end the cycle of life. Or create something that is not life but breathes and that is more dangerous than we all want to experience.

1. Man was having a great time in heaven till Eve came along and f***** it all up.
2. http://lesbianlife.about.com/cs/families/a/Parthenogenesis.htm

4. Yeah right and who slogs & pays for the house and sweet alimony after the divorce?
5. Who was stupid/weak enough to be opressed in the first place?
6. yeah for f****** & chucking.
7. LOL when was the last time you could open a jar with our help.
8 & 9 Women are illogical and emotional with a fickle mind.
10. Only point I completely agree with.
guest
The only thing I can’t give you is that you don’t need a man in the equation to make a baby. Science has helped to replace it? Sorry, I have absolutely never heard of that happening. Even “test tube children” are made with a sperm, and a sperm comes from a male. The rest of them, yeah, definitely, but that one, definitely not. I don’t know where you got that idea. You’re the incubator and exceptionally necessary, but if you want a child, you need a sperm. That’s just a fact of life. That’s something science can’t replace, thank God.
Just like a woman to try to make a man feel unnecessary.

I am so happy that I’m a woman. There have been times, when I was younger, that I wished I could have been a boy, because it would have been easier.

@imissyousofarr@xanga -
Your obvious bias has blinded you, what else could be the reason why you missed the chauvinistic tones that this post reeks of…let me elucidate.
1. She completed man
ergo he was (and will be) incomplete without her.
2. You don’t even really need to have a man present to have a kid anymore.
Apart from being blatantly false it clearly implies that men were just needed for their ‘seed’ and now even that utility has been rendered obsolete.
4.Women work more than men.
Do I really need to explain this?
5.Women have made more advances than men for their gender.
Misandrist propaganda.
7.hurt WAY worse than my dad’s spankings.
10. boobs don’t look good on guys
Every other post has a reference to men…why the comparison if the post is all about ‘how women rock’

I was hoping this would be a good list when reading the title, but apparently not. This list (some parts) seems rather desperate, false, and based on opinions rather than points that can shine a more positive light on women. This seems more like blog to put men down (women make men complete, women are stronger, we don’t need men to have kids because we have science now, blah blah). I feel embarrassed reading some of the things on this list. Come on girls, we can do better than this.

@S_K_O_T@xanga - My response to him had nothing to do with degrading men. It was proving that women are capable of just as much. Just because we had to fight our way to earn where we are now, we still aren’t equal. Obviously, because men like you still exist. The post wasn’t about degrading men or proving that we’re high and mighty, do you NOT get it yet? A little slow, are we? Wow.
guest
Yay!
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - All I’m doing is standing up for myself when I feel I’m being treated unfairly. I’m not quite sure what that has to do with me having a low degree of manliness.
Plus, this is an opinion blog, is it not? We’re supposed to share points of view that way. The entry reads quite clearly at the end, “”do you agree?” – I’m just answering.
guest
@Nellie0x@xanga - You wrote what you did, insults, digs, put-downs and all, and still claim that it had ‘nothing to do with degrading men’? And you’re talking about anyone being slow? You proved that women are capable of just as much? Well…when’s it going to happen? Come back and tell us when that alleged capability becomes actuality. Who’s this “we” that had to fight to get anywhere? Did YOU have to “fight”? Men actually aided women in the early days of feminism, when there was some points to be made. The vast majority of you however, have NOT “earned” your way anywhere…you ride on the coattails of people of the past, you rest on the laurels of your looks, you expect a free ride solely because you’re female. The position you women find yourselves in now is NOT due to you fighting to earn it…it is because men, under duress, abdicated their’s! Male and Female are not equal, and are NOT meant to be equal! As it has been said, we are equally important. Not equal though, in many ways. And only when women go bald, only women feel an overwhelming passion and desire that burns so deep and so strong, only when women are subject to constant rejection, only when women women know true loneliness, only when women are treated like shit, only when women have their thoughts and feelings utterly dismissed, only when women can be mocked for being lonely, only when women are expected to lay down their lives for others, only when women are freely criticised, only when women are referred to as ‘monsters’, ‘animals’, ‘perverts’ and ‘predators’, only when women have absolutely no psychological, emotional, and sexual power over men…will we talk about “equality”!
I really don’t think that any of you women (and it is getting harder to refer to many of you anymore as genuine women!) really want to relinquish all of that which you dine out on, and have dined out on for millenia.
And I REALLY do not want to exist in the kind of androgynised or female-centric mess of a society that you’ve got planned.
It’s clear that the so-called equality you speak of is the Animal Farm variety…that ‘some animals are more equal than others’. So many females now, such as yourself, wany to take the power you already have and translate that into absolute power, into tyranny. The only equality there is between men and women is the balance of our relationship, the equality of qualities we have…and our equal need of each other…even though, for so many of you, so arrogant and ignorant…it is easy to dismiss that.
Men like me? Yes, and oddity now, men who know the truth, who speak the truth, who shan’t so easily take their gender being sent to way of the dodo so easily. We are scratching our way back from the precipice though!
This post, and your comments, WAS and were about degrading men and self aggrandizing yourselves. You’ve managed to do all that, again, and stick in some further insults, whilst evidently still picturing yourself as the ‘good’ one! Wow, indeed, equality sure is great! Funny how when it applies shifts so much though…due to the whims of girls and women.
I’m not slow, I really GET it…that’s why I’m making a stand against it!

@mantiXcore@xanga - Yes, it’s funny how all those things get cunningly ignored…well, maybe not so funny!

haha number 6 <3
guest
Point 1 Adam got lonely and god made women, point 2 says we wouldn’t be here with out women and yet Adam was already here without a woman. Contradiction?
Point 3 Yes you bleed for a week and live at the same time some of you are raging bitches that no one wants to be around. You Rock!
Point 4 you work more than men. So what your saying is guys dont take care of their kids cook clean, we dont nurture our children either right. I guess we dont have a carrer either. You know i rarely see a woman working construction building the homes you live in the roads you drive on, i could go on and on here.
Point 5 women have made more advances for their gender. Its kind of hard for men to do more for their gender when they have already created a male dominated society. All the things you list Women Chiefs of Police, Fire Marshals, Chief Justices, Senators, House Representatives, Speakers for the House, Scientists we already had.
Point 6 not all women are pretty some are down right scary.
If point 7 were true there would be more battered men than women.
Point 8 your soft and like to cuddle. Who are you cuddling with? A man! OMG! we can cuddle too.
Point 10 yes boobs are good but id take an intelligent woman over a huge rack any day.
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - Oh, right, and what a well trained little lap dog he must be then! Or, is he so “secure in his manhood” that he can take every insult to manhood? OR, does he have to count his blessings that he’s lucky enough to have you, and that he daren’t put a foot or word wrong lest you dump him with the click of a finger? He’s ever so grateful that he’s got you, and screw all the other guys, they can go to heck, just as long as he’s allowed in? It’s amazing, that in spite of the poor opinion you’ve formed of most men that you lower yourself to let any male be your boyfriend anymore.
What does your having a boyfriend (which is good mind you! thankfully you do have a boyfriend!) have to do with all this? How does that dismiss and defuse everything else you’ve said? You think this get’s you off the hook regarding your bad attitude and the vulgar misandry of your post?
Is it that it’s good that already got a boyfriend, before you began unloading this anti-male barrage? Point being though, that you, as with all other women, could say just about ANYYYYYTHING you like and STILL have men lining up to be your boyfriend!
None of this is really a good thing.
guest
@IShallNotRepent@xanga - Fantastic point regarding No1, that man was created directly, first!
Hard to say, indeed, what that rot about women working harder than men was meant to mean…of course, the endless amount of work done by men is expected by selfish females such as she who wrote this post to be done off in the background, out of sight, so they don’t have to be troubled by it all…even as they take it for granted.
All the so-called ‘advances’ of the female gender (how can one advance higher than being on a pedestal though?) have come at the EXPENSE of the male gender. We didn’t create a male-dominated society though, men are created to be at the head of society.
Many women are scary, and it’s OFTEN the pretty ones!
There are a lot of battered men, in many ways.
And yes indeed…men can cuddle! Men love to cuddle! Men NEED cuddling, and the beauty of cuddling is the soft, tender feel of the woman, and the strong, secure arms of the man!
Boobs are GREAT….AND intelligence is great, let’s have a good fusion. Women really can’t take credit for their boobs, in any way, either!
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - No, he’s not.
guest
@Shattered_Reflection13@xanga - Everything you wrote there is wrong, no matter how glibly you deliver it. Do I need to go through why?…Men BUILT the home you live in, and it comes on the back of centuries of development in architecture and construction made by MEN! That’s the point! You’re 19? That’s no excuse! On one hand it could be said that you’re young, so therefore you’re instantly dumb…BUT…there has never been a more jaded, hastily developed “generation” than now. The generation of young ‘women’ now, aged between 16 and 24, or so, is the most spoiled, most vain, most arrogant ever. Yes, you may be “informed”, but, from where, and by whom?…and, no genuine information seems to be actually taking! I’m NOT dismissing mothers, motherhood, or birth…so don’t try and twist things…I, however, am also not pushing a gender bias, not promoting the dismissal of an entire gender. Key question though, how can any woman give birth without in some manner being impregnated? You’re a guys girl?…GOOD…but how being a genuine guy’s girl, instaed of “messing” with us, or abusing us? We are not “guys” either, we are MEN! We are meant to be more to you than “friends” who can be abused.
I didn’t “genrelize” anything (sorry to make you seem not quite so intelligent), I spoke the truth.
Is the bullshit about credit card debt and Idol auditions for real? If not, why persist with such “messing” with me? If it is true then here indeed is an example of a vapid ‘woman’ who “rocks” so much!
I am a lot of fun to talk to…in the right conditions! There is no argument, per se, going on here, and I do not like sarcasm, and only ever use it sparingly.
guest
@Avaquin@xanga - Are you for real? Virtually this ENTIRE society now is sexist to men!

@Lithium_Overdose@xanga - thanks for that. it does make sense.. everyday is a school day! =)
guest
This topic again? Damn, haha. I love how some women embrace topics such as “Why Women Rock,” then turn around and cry about how much they hate girls at school/work/anywhere. xD Not that I’m saying anyone here specifically.
sunflower / 391 posts
@S_K_O_T@xanga - Wow, the more you talk, the more I hear a bitter, old man. Yes, I HAVE had to fight for equality my entire life. Job positions, grades, just getting heard period. You have no idea what it’s like being a woman. You’re clearly sexist and there’s no point in talking to you anymore.
guest
i LOVE your list, especially #7-10 <3 :]
guest
#6 was the best!!
guest
@Nellie0x@xanga - Bitter? Yes! I seethe with bitterness! With the way this society has gotten how could I not be bitter? Why shouldn’t I be bitter? Are you telling me that I shouldn’t be bitter? I’m incredibly bitter, to say the least. I’m not old, really. Isn’t 40 the new 20, or whatever? There are plenty of people, usually men, who did the things that you now take for granted. Thank God, is all I can say, that I lived through that golden age of the 70′s and 80′s, before things all went like….this. What does gae have to do with it anyway? If I was younger, or maybe even older, would what you think what I say okay? What if I was 40, but a woman, then everything would be fine and dandy? Tell me how the new rules go about age and people and being able to speak. I am a man though, yes indeed, I AM A MAN!
No, you have NOT had to fight for “equality” ( or more likely, supremacy), your whole life! As a female, you get the free ride right the way throught life. This never used to be totally bad, if you gave back for it…now you take it for granted, with malice, and give nothing but spite back.
Job positions? Grades? Being heard? All granted you far more easily due to your gender…and looks…as with being heard…you’ll always be heard alright!
And you have NO idea what it’s like being a Man!
And that’s the point. Instead of mocking, and treating with spite, as so many women, such as yourself, now do…we are meant to try and UNDERSTAND each other! We are here FOR each other…remember???
Despite the myths though, you’re not thaaaaaaat mysterious. I am deeply empathetic, and women are somewhat easy to understand. I know what it’s like, mostly, to be a woman. It’s funny, as well, how quickly all the new cliches about equality and sameness and social construction fall away. If we’re all the “same” and equal…wouldn’t we all totally understand each other? That’s the kind of shallow, superficial, easy vanity that grips those going ‘lesbian’, of only being with those that understand them, and that they fully understand…but what good is that? Where is the dynamics in that? Where is the chance for growth in that? How boring is that? No horizons, no meaning, no spark. The completion that man and woman find in each other IS LIFE!
We can, to a great degree, understand each other, but there is also much we don’t understand, and THAT is the magic!
Funny, as well, that you make claim of my not knowing what it’s like to be a woman, but you (all) seem very keen on making rash statements about men!
No, I’m not sexist. I don’t believe you have any comprehension of that word’s meaning. You’ve come up in a time that says that men are pigs and any man who dares speak his mind, or worse, dares criticise a woman, is ‘sexist’.
Well, that’s how it goes…you’ve been HEARD, and been RESPONDED to!
It is NOT sexist to expect people to be good and to live up to the responsibilities of their sex. It is actually you, who are the unjustified sexist. Don’t turn away so smugly, there is EVERY point in talking with, not to, me.

@S_K_O_T@xanga My information has come from my life experiences and having seen far too much for my age. To call me dumb is a quite ignorant assumption, as is grouping my intelligence and maturity with my age group seeing as my best friends are between ages 40-60.
As for abusing my guy friends, they deserve it . . . . I don’t see the harm in giving them wedgies that need surgical removal when they’re the ones that snapped my bra! Besides, some men like real abuse. You’ve never heard of a dominatrix before?
Generalizations (which you made, and that’s the truth whether agree or not) are only a small percentage of truth; as you seem to believe women are weak in general.
As for women being incapable of impregnating themselves, mutiple species throughout history evolved from male/female sexual reproduction to asexual reproduction to avoid extinction. In the event of a cataclysmic disaster it’s possible that either human sex could evolve into asexualism to preserve human life. In a scenario purly based on sexual reproduction, a woman can only get pregnant by a man once every 9 months; if there was only one woman left in the world humanity would be screwed, however, with one man left in the world there would be oppertunities for at least 20 women to be artificially inseminated per day. Your science may be correct, but logic states that the fate of the human existance would be up to women. Now if women really suck that much, you’re in BIG trouble in a survival scenario.
And about Idol auditions, it’s true. Please hate on me for having the ovaries to follow my dream. Better yet, I hear Simon needs a replacement. You could do well with that.
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - Please leave this post alone??? Oh, no, the poor little post! The poor post, whatever has it done to deserve such cruel treatment?
Oh, yeah, spent it’s time either overtly or covertly bashing men…that’s what the post did and that’s why I won’t leave this post alone.
That’s some “equality” for ‘ya…you say something bad, and you’re going to get something said back. I will NOT leave, no matter if you now put on the sweet “please” act…YOU voiced this misandry, YOU aired this female-supremacist arrogance…I’m perfectly entitled to respond (and would be less of a man if I didn’t) and you forfeit the right to demand anyone who is insulted by, and who raises a voice against, this post to “please leave”.
If the same thing is going on, and the same insults levelled at me, then I have to say the same, or similar things in response!
Annoying? Is that all you can think of, annoying? Well you deserve to be annoyed. Because the rampant misandry, of which this post is a part, that infects society today is miles beyond being merely annoying.
If you truly “rocked” you wouldn’t be so quick to aks anyone to leave, you wouldn’t be so easily ‘annoyed’.
YOU posted this, and you’re going to get a response…and it’s not all going to be sychophancy. I shall not be leaving until this rot stops!

this is stupid. women don’t rock because we have boobs, or can bear children. that’s fucking degrading.
guest
1: I want my rib back!
2: nobody would be here without a man either, only we don’t have to deal with labor
3: best advice I ever heard from my father- never trust something that bleeds for a week and doesn’t die
4: how hard is it to respond to a proposal, seriously, the one proposing is doing all the work.
5: Women are just doing that stuff now, we started that ages ago!
6: pretty? or is it because of the boobs.
7: Ever tried anything on a girl in front of her father? yeah, he’ll send you home to your mama in a casket
8: Men don’t need to cuddle, we do that crap for the women
9: um, ok, that’s nice
10: This one is reason enough why girls rock, you could have skipped 1-9
guest
i strongly disagree with what rien_jabura said. its so not true. my aunty is an engineer. that means she contributed to society as well as some other MAN. most teachers are women. they give us our education. lots of women are doctors and authors, and many other important people are women.and yes we may complain about how lasy men are, we actually have heaps more on our plate to deal with. women get dumped with their children everyday. some mothers die during childbirth. we have to help our families as much as men do. yes it is racist that woman cant fight in wars. but then again, who are there to comfort their family when their brothers of dads go to war?? we are!!! the mothers. but then again what good has MANkind done to us? global warming? terrorists?? is this really something that we should look up to?? i dont think so?? so please dwell on THAT whhen you are thinking about what MEN do and what WOMEN do.

lesbohemian@xanga - Well, I guess I hit a nerve, didn’t I? I’m not going to bother replying to your nonsense, because that’s exactly what it is. This article wasn’t meant to show how women are better than men in a serious fashion (and to be quite honest? I don’t know a man alive that could take the pain of childbirth, and my Grandmothers had eleven and six babies respectively; men and women are equal – different, but equal). With all due respect to you, I have the greatest respect for women, and do not know where I’d be without my wife, my Mother, nor my aunts and grandmnothers, so take a little adivce, Lesbohemian: try not to take life so seriously, okay? Life is meant to be enjoyed, and getting uptight about a humourous response to a humourous article only puts pounds around your waist, gray streaks in your hair, wrinkles on your face, and callouses on your heart. Oh, and just for your information, Lesbohemian, my mother has worked just about every day of my life to help my Dad provide for my brother and me, and for themselves, and she has never once complained. Try not to assume that I am ignorant of working mothers, because I’m not, and assuming just makes you,,Lesbohemian, look rather stupid and half-cocked. Thanks for replying to my post…
Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - And its important to My Lady, as well. She has never met a spider she liked and that I couldn’t step on with a boot…and again, happy to do it for her (and you!)…

amen and amen in Genesis 2:23 and adam said, this is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh she shall be called woman, becase she was taken out of man
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - I never bash women. I love women. What the hell did I say that bashes them? “Bashing” would imply that I’m saying something that has no purpose other than to be an insult, like “women are stupid”, or whatever, but I have done absolutely nothing like that. Pointing out characteristics of theirs is not bashing. If we never talked out the problems we have with women and vice-versa, we’d never learn how to live with each other, and that’s no good at all. In my opinion, that’s likely to be thie biggest causes of divorce.
guest
Uh, I think Rien is a guy! But seriously, when God told Adam that the perfect woman would cost him an arm and a leg, Adam asked,” Well, what can I get for a rib?”

Not to mention women’s education surpasses men. There are more educated women than men now ( go research it!) and there was even an article that said how it benefits men to marry women ( talk about change it use to be the other way around!). We are superior !

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga – I don’t think Rien_Jabura is a chick…
@Rien_Jabura@xanga – I’m not usually sexist and stuff but I think nowadays you shouldn’t just assume that the house I live in, my city, cars and the screws, steel, mortar, fibreglass, plexiglass, glue and nails are manufactured purely by males… thats a bit extreme isn’t it? And do you know why it is men that made the most invention and discoveries? Because most of them were made a long time ago, when men made themselves seem more powerful and they thought they were superior… how wrong and ego-centric. Men were so narrow minded and proud that they refuse to believe women could do just as well. This stereotype within society is slowly starting to fade but it’s gonna take a while.

and you can have a baby without a man these days, sum surgery or sumthing.

This made me vomit a bit in my mouth. I consider myself a feminist but too many women confuse feminism with ‘female pride,’ when in fact it’s just an understanding of the equality and maybe even the irrelevance of genders.
I do feel inclined to refute the first proposition, though, as it remidns me of a cute chat on bash.org: A woman says “what would you guys do without us?” and a guy appropriately replied “we’d still be in the garden of eden, you gullible bitch.” I therefore ask you withdraw #1.
guest
@Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga - That should be posted in giant, bold letters as an example of why you are WRONG!
Ignorance is not bliss, and ignorance is no excuse. It’s clear that now, in some quarters, certain kinds of ignorance are “okay”…just as longas you’re conveniently liberal and/or female, and all.
You posted this vulgar diatribe. Did you REALLY think you get nought but back-slappong for it? You’ve utterly failed to even try and counter anything I’ve said to, not that you could mind.
Ignorance does not get you out of it.
guest
@jpmai@xanga - You talk about wrong and egocentric? Whilst also dismissing the efforts, labours, and endeavours of men, which REALLY DID HAPPEN, and that you TAKE FOR GRANTED after the fact. And men magically “made themselves seem more powerful”? That is verging on the insane. Men DID do and invent all those things, you CANNOT lie about it now. WE REMEMBER!
orchid / 198 posts
No problem, Avaquin@xanga - and thank you! I’ve always been the believer that men and women are equal, just built differently, and with different abilities: there are certain things that men do better than women, but there are also things that women do better than men (and, for my person, women are FAR more beautiful than men….but maybe that’s just me! =] =] )…

You’re certainly welcome, Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga!
guest
These reasons are awesome. I agree to all of them. We put up with soo much more than men.
guest
@S_K_O_T@xanga - I don’t think you understand my point here. The opportunity to have the freedom to invent or discover something is what we take for granted nowadays… ok yeah so men did invent a lot of things… but invention and the ability to understand the mechanism of certain things require education and a lot of invention was made a long time ago… when there was less educational opportunities for girls…why? Cos men made it that way.
I have never dismissed what men has done, I don’t hate the male race! I just wanted @Rien_Jabura to acknowledge that all these stereotypes stem from history, when men stopped females from being equal and didn’t give females a chance, all probably because of the bible (which was also written by men), he was a bit extreme in his statement and so I had to leave a comment.
You can say men are more powerful, and maybe they are, but i think it was self-proclaimed to begin with.

@Rien_Jabura@xanga - Although better known for her Silver Screen exploits, Austrian actress Hedy Lamarr (born Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler) also became a pioneer in the field of wireless communications following her emigration to the United States. The international beauty icon, along with co-inventor George Anthiel, developed a “Secret Communications System” to help combat the Nazis in World War II. By manipulating radio frequencies at irregular intervals between transmission and reception, the invention formed an unbreakable code to prevent classified messages from being intercepted by enemy personnel.
In the mid-1980s, a twelve-year old girl developed an invention that greatly helped people who have difficulty communicating. Rachel Zimmerman of Ontario, Canada created a software program using Blissymbols: symbols that enable non-speaking people, such as those with severe physical disabilities like cerebral palsy, to communicate.
Mary Anderson: Inventor of Windshield wipers
Patricia Billings: Inventor of GeoBond
Marion Donovan: Inventor of Disposable Diapers
Bette Nesmith Graham: Inventor of Liquid paper
Dr.Grace Murray Hopper: COBOL Computer Language inventor
Mary Phelps Jacob: Inventor of the BRA
Stephanie Kwolek: Inventor of Kevlar (synthetic material five times as strong as steel…) Think many builders use this, sir?

@Rien_Jabura@xanga - lol. wat? do you think it’s because women weren’t smart enough, or maybe was it because we were never told that we COULD invent something or lead someone. maybe it’s because a millenia of oppression kept us uneducated and in the home. imagine what a world it would be if men and women were equal from the very start!

I actually think a lot of these reasons aren’t very good ones. And as for biblically, we are 95% of the time objectified or are portrayed horribly.
There are plenty of good reasons that women are great… But these aren’t highlighting those, I don’t think.These are archetypal reasons that aren’t accurate for all women. My list would be very different.
guest
@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - Haha I don’t think he’s a chick. Check the first person pronouns!
guest
I’m somewhat glad we can’t be in combat. That should be the man’s thing.
Basically it is an ancient standard that men go to war because women are worth more reproduction-wise. One man can impregnate HUNDREDS of women, but for the continuation of a species, women only bare one child at a time naturally. So you need more women in your society then men for your race to continue.
Also, women are more prone to infections of the bladder and such when being in foxholes and tight spots like that because we have a vag.
I agree though. It’s really not fair. More women go to college than men do now. It sucks. So now because we fought for all of our equality we are pretty much doing everything we did before AND a shitload more. So did we gain freedom? Yes. But since us women have flooded the job market, now in the middle class, women HAVE to work. We are doing the jobs of two people.

I think both sexes have strong and weak points. I also think if both sides are always arguing about who’s better, then it’s just going to continually widen the gulf that separates them. Why does either have to be better? Why can’t everyone just be happy with both genders being great? I don’t know, that’s just how I see it.

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - because @Rien_Jabura@xanga isn’t a chick.

I agree with you 110%. We do kick ass. And not only all of wha you said, but we also look good doing all of those things. Put a man in the position of house wife for a day and see if he still looks gorgeous at the end of the day. Ha ha.

1) Yes, but you failed to realize that then Eve decided to disobey and eat from the forbidden fruit. Then she “gave” it to Adam, causing him to sin along with her.
2) Which brings to the 2nd point, why we’re here instead of being in paradise. Because Eve sinned and then caused Adam to sin.
3) The amount women bleed in that week is neglegible compare to how much men bleed in sports. There’s a reason why people don’t respect the WNBA.
4) Yes women change their names when they get married, but have you considered how much men had to work to pay for that stupid peice of rock just to get her greedy ass to marry him? And yes, she carries the child for 9 months, men carry the child until 18.
5) Yes, women made all those progresses for women… but wait… all those positions EXISTED before women took them, they were founded and progressed by MEN. MEN created the society, which by your definition was primarily male dominated world. So in comparison, all women did is trying hard to “catch up” to men.
6) Until you gave birth and become that fat lazy cow sitting at home.
7) That’s because when men discipline kids, we show “self-control.” When women discipline kids, its out of anger, because women can’t control their emotions. That’s a weakness sweetheart, not a strength.
9) That one person is herself.
10) You went out of your way trying to break the mold of the superficial “objectified” women only to conclude with the most superficial remark. But it’s not because you are superficial, it’s because you aren’t smart enough to come up wit ha 10th reason. That being said, the truth is, all your ideas thus far are just recycled cliche.
Women rock? Only if they can cook me a pot pie and knit me a sweater. Otherwise, get back in the kitchen and don’t talk unless you are spoken to.

OH, btw… ever wonder why the serpent in the garden went straight to tempt the woman? how come the serpent never tried to tempt Adam? Obviously because the serpent knew that it’s easier to tempt the stupid.

@JandJinJapan@xanga - I like this view point alot. I also agree with it, though many people on here will try to argue with that. I beginning to think that particular revelation comes with age.

It has for me, Sake_Tatsuyo@xanga, though what I posted is something my Dad and Mom have taught me from the time I was a wee, little lad in the Hills of Kentucky….Thank you for your kind words, and God bless you!

Hmm… Just because somebody say that somebody is good,
it doesn’t mean that they’re saying that everybody else suck!!
women rock doesn’t mean that men don’t rock

guest
I love this list, it’s really great!
guest
I don’t like boobs, at least not in my body. I never have
I wish I had a smaller/flatter chest…. How weird does that make me? I just feel like they’re so effing gross and dirty, and make running uncomfortable….I also hate it when a guy is looking at my chest and not listening to me! I felt a lot more pure and “clean” when I didn’t have these things on. Maybe it is less attractive, but I am not interested in having children whatsoever so please try to understand my point of view.
To be honest I didn’t like this post much, mostly because I think someone should rock BECAUSE of the person they are inside and as a whole, regardless of their gender.
However if you were to ask me, I think women are great because they all tend to be more peaceful than men, TEND to have better manners, and are not always thinking about sex. Again, this is just a generalization.
Also, two words: female intuition!
guest
@Rien_Jabura@xanga - I dunno why you get all defensive and hostile. Just because we are proud of who we are doesn’t mean we don’t recognize men’s contribution to the society. There are little female inventors are mainly due to for years women were denied access to education, but that does not mean women are intellectually inferior than men. Many companies/governments today are led by female leaders.
And just because there’re more male chefs out there doesn’t = man cooks better. It only means that there are many great female cooks decided to not pursue cooking as their career– because many women out there value their families more than careers.
And please stop making hasty generalization. Man Don’t make EVERYTHING! A society needs BOTH men and women to do their jobs to function properly.
guest
I agree with pretty much all of your list. Except for the generalization that boys want us. Some of us really don’t CARE if boys want us, namely myself and my fiancee… But on average, women are much better looking than men, so I’ll consider THAT what you meant to say and we’ll call it even.

But as for young ladies, lamination of diamonds is too dear. Besides, lamination is just a fashion to them, so or Channel necklace couldn’t be better for them.

Lately, a selection of the most charming

You will never wonder why such beauties as Angelina Jolie and Gisele Bundchen are left far behind. It can’t be simpler. What do you think will happen if such women appear in the office? Having no advantages in face and figure, Michelle Obama, however, draws the admiration of the majority of people for her sensitive taste on fashion and capacity on dresses and jewellery. Taking her age, taste, status, and figure into consideration, global women in the middle class get an ideal example to follow. As for these professional women with high positions, they also finally get a charm bracelet model who deserves to be imitated.
