Lady Says "We Shouldn't All Be Feminists" by Phaytte(f): 4:18pm On May 08, 2017
WE SHOULDN'T ALL BE FEMINISTS
I'm sorry but this is getting out of hand. What are you fighting for exactly? You wanna be president? You want a timetable between you and your husband for who gets to cook when? You want to sit on high tables without just being your husband's escort? You want to be engineers?
Oh! But you can't kill cockroach. You're jumping on his new leather couch screaming "Baby, kill it before it flies!!!" And if he holds the door open for you, you walk right through as though you're Taylor freaking Swift! Me! I don't believe that what a man can do, a woman can do better (especially after tasting my Uncle's Egusi soup. Mehn! That soup was meannn). Where was I? Yes. If we could do better, God wouldn't waste his time moulding fine bearded men or round bellied daddies. We can't do everything better. Because we were created for different things. I for one, will not, gaan be dragging generator when a man is dia! Why do you now have muscle?
But the things a woman, can do, a real woman, all men put together cannot even collectively fathom it. Quote me anywhere. There is a reason God felt the need to complete creation by creating a woman.
I tell people " What a man can do, a woman doesn't need to do anymore".
So please, feminists, keep fighting for us. We'll need it some day. But I'll be right here being a woman.
