 All about women: All about women Damon Salvatore by Damon Salvatore English | February 26, 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B08XLGGCJS | 200 pages | EPUB | 0.27 Mb The current millennium is drawing to a close and it is time to tell the truth about women:We do not like men who neglect us.We are not absolute dumb heads in mathematics and technology.We do not seek to trap a man in a marriage trap (marriage brings much more comfort to a man's life than to ours).We do not become more sexually anxious with age (we lose partners, not libido).We do not lose our composure when we go shopping (after all, we spend money on food and baby underwear, but mostly men buy yachts and cars).Finally, we do not become insane during the premenstrual period (studies have shown that hormonally we approach men more at this time than on other days of the month!).It's time to turn to the facts. After all, myths tend to be confusing. Knowledge helps us to understand the past and prepare for the future. Myths make us feel hopeless. Knowledge gives the right to choose.And we use choice more than any other generation of women at all times - the choice we can offer our daughters:We can take advantage of what our grandmothers were deprived of: contact lenses, plastic surgery, contraceptives, technologies to get pregnant.We can make a career in such areas as economics, legislation, aeronautics, computing.And, of course, we can choose the lifestyle that we like best:We no longer experience empty nest syndrome. When the nest is empty, we can either arrange it, or immerse ourselves in our own world. We are already in a mid-life crisis. The symptoms of menopause are just minor inconveniences; they do not turn into tragedy. We already use hormonal agents not only to prevent pregnancy, but also to get pregnant. (Yes, it is - and at forty-five you can experience not only hot flushes, but also morning sickness, as happens during pregnancy.) We are no longer those "little girls" who are waiting for a "kind" or "sweet" daddy. We are self-sufficient women who were born in the "baby boomer" era - that is, during the peak of fertility: no less, about seven million "babies" born then in 1996 will be middle-aged women! And although it has always been customary to say that in fact we do not want neither the truth, nor freedom of choice, nor access to information, because we do not dare to accept the responsibility that necessarily lies behind all this, my research does not support this statement. Women most often answer "I don't care" when it comes to trivial things - that is, when, for example, they are asked: "What movie do you want to watch?" or "Where should we go for dinner?" The reason is not that women rate themselves low. The reason is fatigue. However, when a lot depends on the adoption of this or that decision, then we make a choice and are not afraid of responsibility. Many women say that they just need to make choices in order to avoid stress.We do not have problems with self-esteem, which are often attributed to us. Study after study shows that when self-esteem falls sharply, it is more often a consequence of, rather than a cause, of how we feel about ourselves. We can say for sure that we do not suffer from dissatisfaction with our appearance, or from our own inability to cope with stress (although, I admit, sometimes we adore endlessly talking about how we should improve ourselves).Unfortunately, all this does not mean that currently there is no discrimination against women. Girls say over and over again that they are treated differently from boys; working women still run up against the "glass ceiling", receiving less pay than men for performing (sometimes even better) similar work. And the reason for such discrimination lies not in the low self-esteem of women. To say that women are to blame for everything is to add another insult to our address.Are you wondering why there are so many myths about women, so much psychologically based nonsense? Well, there are reasons for that. |
