THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Double Sided Debate

For every woman tired of been a weak person when she knows she is strong
There is a man tired of looking Strong when he is Vulnerable

For every woman that is tired of looking Foolish There is a man Tired of people expecting him to know everything

For every woman tired of being called an emotional female,
There is a man tired of the denial of the right to be cry & be tender

For every woman that is tired of being used as a Sexual Object,
There is a man tired of being concerned about his virility

For every woman tired of being called not Fiminine because she is competeitive
There is a man tired of competing as the only way to prove his masculinity

For Every woman tired of being tied to her children,
There is a man tired of being denied the pleasure of Paternity

For every woman tired of being denied a satisfying job or a fair salary,
There is a man tired of being responsible for another Human Being

For every woman tired of being denied training in the Mechanical details of her car
There is a mantired of not been trained in the Joy of Knowing how to cook

For every woman who has ventured a step towards her own liberation
There is a man who realises that the way to Freedom has become easier
