Women


Women's Day has been an occasion not only for celebration but also for reflection on issues currently affecting women on the African continent, which include sexual violence, institutionalized oppression and inadequate healthcare. You know, there are a lot of women that made very significant events. Like the black American that was first to take a trip around the world using an airplane. What are the roles of the women? The women are very important to us. Why? You ask me that question I will ask you, where did you come from? Did you come from your father? No, that is very impossible. There is no man that can bear a child. Even if they undergo sex change they still can’t bear a child. The women is very important to us because they are the ones who made us live. They always care for us. They give us everything we need. We all know that the father is always the one to get a job and to give the family their earnings. But some of the men this time are not giving their wives a share of what they earned. Why? Because they have other families. Some of them are wasting their money just for playing cards like “tong-its. We always play that. But we don’t waste our money just for that silly game. We just play that game for fun. You know my father used to play that game. He always arrived home late. There was one time that my mother was so angry that she went after my father. Then you know what she did. She went to him and pushed over the table they were playing at. And all the cards were flying and the money were all over the floor. The play mates of my father were so scared. They thought there was a war going on against my mother and my father. After what happened, my father did not play that stupid game again. He just spends his time reading the dictionary or maybe listing to the songs in youtube and using the yahoo messenger. You know, women have the hardest jobs ever. They have many responsibilities like taking care of us. And if they have many siblings like 9, 10, 11, 12, etc. the mother has to work so that they can afford to let their children go to school. She is the one that will budget the incomes of his husband so that it will be enough to make it through the whole year. It’s kind of hard to become a mother. But you have to accept the fact that you are a woman. And you have to accept the fact that you will get married someday and you will also have children of your own. And you will have an experience on being a woman. We should thank our mother for taking care of us. Even though we hate what they are doing to us. But they are only doing their best to make our life better and to let us be more disciplined so that we can be ready for what is in store for us in the future. So we should thank our mother for every good thing she has done for us. And we should say it now because it is women’s month. This is where my post ends, so thank you for reading my post and hope you will read all my other posts.
