Thank you for your comment. I appreciate th...Bill,<br /><br />Thank you for your comment. I appreciate the feedback.<br /><br />My point is that women need to take control and stop allowing men to objectify them but also to stop objectifying themselves by accepting the role as "less than" and making excuses for the men who do so.<br />Men choose their behavior, and so do women.<br />I purposely don't watch shows such as "Real Housewives..." for precisely that reason. Well, that, and I just don't find that kind of show entertaining...<br />Part of taking back the power to not be objectified is to recognize it and shed light on it...<br />Again, thank you for commenting! Your attitude is encouraging... :-)<br /><br />T. L.

Not that there isn't another side to this, at least in America, but for the most part you are absolutely correct. I found this blog by Googleing "I am more than the sum of my parts". The other side of your rant is that when women gain in some way, usually but not always monetarily, they often lean into it not away from it. Watch "Real Housewives of Blah Blah Blah" if you want to see the other side. The only way out of the place women are in is for women to take back ALL their power and refuse to buy into the entire program including the monetary one. You can't, to coin a phrase, have it both ways. And honestly I think we are moving in that direction just not at speed. Hang in there because when all the dust settles you are still in the right by being wronged. Bill Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13289197970993655712noreply@blogger.com
