Why Is It An Insult To Be A Woman? by Nobody: 4:40pm On Nov 29, 2015 |
There are a number of insults one can throw around these days. From “go duck yourself” to the more colourful West African insult “constipated vagabond”, the possibilities available when trying to attack someone verbally are wide and wonderful. With hundreds of languages and an almost infinite number of phrases to use within these dialects it’s baffling that women’s Instruments and actions are still used as a form of insult. Phrases like “Where are your tampons?” and “Are your balls in her purse?” are bandied about on television, in bars and in general polite conversation. We have used everyday “feminine” traits as insults from a very early age. How many times were boys told, “Don’t cry like a little girl”? When we grow up, a man who wants to insult a bunch of other men calls them “ladies”. Why is it that being a woman is still the butt of social jokes? Often I will be sitting with a group of men and one will do something that others in the group do not agree with and they will say,“Dont be a bitch.”CONTINUATION |

This not only brings the man’s actions down to animalistic level but also makes the negative actions female as well. The language men often use with each other about women speaks of a dual reality: being a woman is still seen as lesser than a man and therefore there is pressure on men to not be that way. Despite the rise of the metrosexual and the fashionable nature of the man purse, life can be rough out there when male identity is met by the double-edged sword of patriarchy. Keep being a man. Keep being amazing. Fail and you may become a woman, and that is incomprehensible. The idea seems to be that if one is not being an awesome (or at the very least successfully mediocre) man you must have slipped down the social ladder to being one of the lesser beings, namely a woman. I have never been insulted by being called a “gentleman”. I am not even sure how I would react, or whether I would even recognise it as a slight. |

An insult to be a woman? I can't believe at this age one will say dat. Even wen gender inequality was d order of the day, it was never an insult to be a woman |
