Did you ever wonder...

Did you ever wonder on why history was called history and not herstory?

Did you ever wonder that even though the female population outnumbers the men population, there is only a small number of women that lead?

Did you ever wonder why female writers we're so hard to find back then?

Did you ever wonder on why women wear stilletos even though it causes great pain?

Did you ever wonder on why the abbreviation "Ms." is changed to "Mrs." once she is married and yet the abbreviation "Mr." is not changed regardless of single or married?

Did you ever wonder why did the abbreviation "Mr." is always first instead of "Mrs." in invitations?

Did you ever wonder on what the world will be if it was led by women?

Did you ever wonder on why did man blame God for creating woman when they we're asked why they ate from the tree of knowledge?

So many questions left in my mind but all points to one reason.

Our world has been in utter chaos since the beginning.
Wars.
Corruption.
Unwanted deaths.
Destruction.
All of these happened under the rule of man.

When a man claims a higher position, he is praised.
When a woman claims a higer position, she must go through hell to even hear a single cheer.

Ever since the beginning, man has already claimed supremacy.
Ever wondered why it was called "Man and Woman" and not "Woman and Man"?
And for centuries, man has claimed the highest chair.
Throughout time, man has created outstanding marvels and claimed all glory for himself.
Man even created reasons and lies and contraptions to make him more supreme as ever.

I'm not going against my own gender or anything.
I'm just sharing on what I think.
You decide.

Oh yeah, did you know men created stilletos and not women?
And there is a special reason on why men love seeing women wearing stilletos.
And I'm not going to say why. Discover it for yourself.

someone's a feminist. haha.

yeah. you got a point there.

although certain study did show that women liked being led/being saved by a partner(be it a man or fellow woman).

a group of women were given these book:

1. your typical love story
-wherein poor girl meets rich man. fights all odds. lives happily ever after. end

2. a woman empowering book
-wherein poor girl meets rich man. fights all odds. man and girls quarrels. girl learns to be independent. girl goes on without a man, happily. end.

guess who got the better rating from femal readers? fuckin' number one.

in the end, i have yet to see a female power rise up and lead us effectively, mere human beings we are. i kind of prefer a lady leader too.

and i have no idea on why men created stilleto.

Me a feminist? Maybe.
Cool.

Maybe women should try to learn on how to lead more rather than follow. We are living in a modern world after all.
