All of those invisible people who come get your trash, mow your lawn, fix your roof, flip your burgers, ship your consumer widgets around behind the wheel of a big truck - they're all men, they all got a pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥ deal, but you know what the difference is between them and you?
They don't whine about their station in life. That's what makes them men. If you want to see what it's like being a man you can try that on for size, see how it fits you. |
Not whining per se. Just trying to figure things out and understand the concept of two heads are better than one. As for doing the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ work, getting a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ deal, I would have to say most everyone has had this in some way shape or form, men and women alike. Which is why I started going to this forum to begin with. For help and advice. Obviously with such a crude remark, you must have some "crap" you're carrying around with you. Maybe you should try to share. I love hearing other's stories. It helps me deal with mine.
As for what I'm currently going through....well it's nothing big I guess. At least not currently. I'm currently taking a psychology class and a sociology class. I think that by reading these text books, I'm digging up past hurts that I thought I was over but haven't quite gotten there, know what I mean? See, in my very, very young years, like 2 or 3, I was molested by my father. Don't really remember much of it, but the drama from it lasted for some time constantly reminding me that something bad happened to me. During my 20s I was raped 2 times. I never reported it because felt then and I still feel, I caused this to myself. Then my ex husband who used to hit me all the time because he was too drunk to understand the words coming out of my mouth. And of course I had to have sex with him too when I didn't want to. So I guess all of this might make me feel like not being a girl, woman, anymore. This is obviously just socially, not physically.
