Entry for October 9, 2006
I'm not one to complain but there's an issue I would like to discuss. Equality means a state of being equal in number, rank, meaning: the plural of Equal (the same in degree, value, without, subservience or domination). A strong word that is used, but not valued. Remember the old saying, "If you are man or woman enough to throw the first punch,than be man or woman enough to recieve the second punch. How about, "What's good for the goose is good for the gander. How about, "What you do in the dark will come to the light. With all these different sayings floating around, it all boils down to the golden rule.."Treat one as you would like to be treated." There are so many different opinions but there is only one truth. It's amazing how so many men and women in the world say this golden rule but do not do it. I ask you, "Why quote something you do not respect?" To many are too concerned about what they can get (envy), how long they can get it(time), from how many they can get it from(lust), and how long they can get away with it before they are caught(greed). Not to mention, what way they can get themselves out of it when they do get caught(deceit). Unfortunately this is a common thing in a lot of relationships today, which brings me back to the question at hand...I ask you again..."Why get upset when your dirt is brought to your face when you see it's being done by your mate?" Some have no right to get angry. Just take it, because you threw the first stone. Reality is reality. You only get back what you give out. We tend to not understand that it's very important to respect others and treat them as such. This is why I'm confused about how some men can call women names when they see them doing the same things they are doing. Why is it that some men get upset at women who treat them the way they treat other women? What's the problem? Can some one shed some light on this for me....I mean....why is a woman a B**ch when she does what a man who's considers himself as "the man"...or "a pimp"....or "a player". Or why is a woman considered a H*e when she cheats on a man whom cheated on her....Is it ok for men and not women.....because alottttt of people think so.....Enlightment please......

Hey there I'm Yolanda and I personally think that men are dogs and what ever happens to them is probubly what they deserve. Most men think a woman is less than them anyway. My dad grew up being told that women don't work and that a woman stays a home and she is to not question what a man does. I grew up watching my dad cheat on my mom and she didn't do anything. I don't know if it was because of the way she was raised but I couldn't do it. I love my dad but I don't respect him as a man. I may be wrong to feel like that but I do. I don't think it's right for a man to treat a woman like that and expect her not to say or do anything. I always say, if it's good you them then it's good for us. Hell, if they can do it than I don't see why we can't.
