I Hate Being A Woman!!!

Men have it so much easier than women do. 

Here are some reasons why:

1. Monthly Sickness: 

I am underweight, but I tend to get my menstrual cycle every three months, but I still get the symptoms every month. I just don't get the bleeding.  One week before my period starts I get tachycardia, fever, cramps, and back pain. Then the day before I am running to the bathroom with diarrhea. The abdominal cramping and pain are so bad I pass out. I sometimes even vomit. Another thing I get is feeling like I have to pee all the time. 

2. Hormones

Different times of the month our hormones changes. This causes a variety of emotions. For me, I am less patient and angry.  One minute you feel happy and the next you want to cry. 

3. Hair

Women have to shave under their arms, legs and sometimes even in places you don't want to talk about. If we don't we are looked at like we are dirty.  For me, I don't shave because of my Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. Shaving causes severe pain for me. For me my Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy caused me to not have any hair on my legs. If there is hair it is very light because I am blonde. My under arms, on the other hand, have hair.  I usually don't shave them unless I am going to wear something that will show it. 

4. Look a Certain Way

We have to leave the house with our hair looking fantastic and face clear. 

5. Underwear

Bras are very uncomfortable and another thing we women have to spend money on. 

Men like thongs but they aren't very good for your health. 

According to the Huffington Post's article Why Your Thong May Be Bad For Your Health by Ellie Krupnick, explains the reasons why they aren't good for women. Some of the reasons are because of the shape leaving your vulva exposed.  They cause yeast and bacterial infections because they can very easily transfer harmful bacteria from your butt to your vagina. And if you wear them during your period, you may be even more likely to get an infection. It is best not to wear them often. 

6. Sex

Women can't just relax and have sex because they have to fear pregnancy. Women have to worry if they might have eaten or taken something that interferes with the pill. Or if a woman has an IUD in they have to worry if it is properly in place.  It's not fair. Men don't have any consequences to worry about. If a woman gets pregnant he doesn't have to deal with the pain and suffering for 9 months and the labor. The man can just walk away. If a woman doesn't want a child they will have to get a painful abortion procedure and feel like a baby killer. 

Birth Control side effects are crazy. I know I haven't found any birth control that doesn't make me really sick. I DO NOT want kids at all so I'm getting a tubal ligation surgery. 

If you don't want to have sex with your partner. He gives you that "you don't love me" shit.  "I don't understand why won't you do it with me. You love me right?".  My responsive to him is " I love you but I don't want kids. Period. Sex isn't worth it."  He nags about it all the time or makes me feel really bad about it. I made a promise to myself I won't have sex until I am married. I have only been with my boyfriend for 3 1/2 months. If we were together over a year maybe, but I am still learning about him. Why am I going to risk my career and life?  

9. Pregnancy/Kids:  

Women are the ones who care for the child. Men make their women clean, cook and take care of the kids while they sit on their butts. Yes, they most likely go to work, but so does the women. 

10. Check-Ups:

 Mammograms are very painful. Getting Pap Tests are very painful and uncomfortable. Having metal instruments up your vagina isn't fun at all.

11. Menopause 

12. Work Enviroment/ Pay

Women make only 77.5 cents for every dollar that men earn.  The more education a woman has  the greater the disparity in her wages. Women in a professional specialty occupations were found to earn just 72.7% of what men in the same position earned, and women in upper-level executive, administrative and managerial occupations earned even less at 72.3%. 

4 in 10 business worldwide have no women in senior management. Women earned less than men in 99% of all occupations. 

According to a Forbes article, Why Most Women Will Never Become CEO by Gene Marks.  "Men can get away with more stupidity. They can make the occasional inappropriate joke and then just apologize. If a woman does that she's treated like a leper. Men can sprinkly profanity in their conversation and it endears them as one of the folks. God forbid if a woman drops an f-bomb in the office-- she's a total you-know-what (hint: it's not a snitch). Men can date women thirty years younger and get high-fives from their peers. As much as many women would like to do that they just won't. Because they can't. Men can make mistakes like this and get off with a warning. Women are held to a much higher standard. That's because the standards in today's business world are still made and enforced...by men. 

Women are not allowed to make off-color jokes. They have to appear to be embarrassed by that YouTube video. They could never comment on the looks of a fellow co-worker. They shouldn't be talking about how many beers they consumed the night before. Men can do all of this with ease and not be judged by their bosses. Women cannot. This limits their ability to connect with other employees and build the kind of invisible bonds that men get to build. 

A woman's physical appearance is way more under the radar than a man's. A guy can pull any one of his two or three suits out of a closet and throw it on top of the same shirt he wore the previous day. Most women in the workplace spend hours putting themselves together. They're not allowed to let their guard down, even if they're working late into the evening. Because men will judge their appearance. And make comments to each other like, "sure she's OK, but remember how she looked that night we were putting together the proposal? Yeesh!" Yes, men say that stuff. And then they let these things cloud their decision making when it's promotion time." 

In a work environment, women's ideas and opinions aren't taken seriously. 

13. Women Get Taken Advantage Of:

Mechanics think we are stupid. 

Buying a car, homes, home repair women are more likely to be charged more and get screwed. 

14. Heat- If it is really hot outside, women can't go shirtless. 

These are just some of the things. I could keep on going. Men are very selfish creatures who only think about themselves and their pleasures and don't think about the women's side.
