Over
the last one hundred years, equality between men and women has become
more of a reality. Women have won the right to vote in most countries
(in 1893 in New-Zealand, in 1920 all over the United States, and in
1944 in France).
But
feminists today seem to protest against just about anything; they
seem to consider that any and every difference between men and women
is discrimination against women...
They
dispute the fact that the masculine prevails over the feminin in
French grammar... Who cares?! What would it change to xhange a
grammar rule? Would men see it as discrimination? We have to create
something which both women and men agree on. It all sounds a little
ridiculous...
Please
explain to me why most women still want men to be courteous to
women? Why does a man still have to show respect to a woman if they
are supposed to be equal? It seems to be unfair doesn't it? Is this
not discrimination against men?!
A
recent law condemned the use of the word “Mademoiselle”. But,
“Mademoiselle” is not a pejorative word! Personally, I never
thought about it before the law was passed! I have never been
offended when someone has called me “Miss”! Soon, feminists will
ask to delete the forms “Madame” and “Monsieur” because maybe
women would be discriminated against for being called “Mrs”! I’m
proud to be a woman and I don’t want to be considered as a man
because of some stressed-out shrews!
I
believe that feminists are paranoid. I agree with them on some
points, like unfair salary differences, but that’s not the point: I
think that they often go too far. They don’t admit a real and
essential fact: men and women are different. How can we accept
feminists who want us girls to turn into men?!
