Ladies

In a Society were most of the time we are depicted as sexual objects and aren't shown enough credit. How does that make you feel and our we to blame for this? When we do lead and take charge we are stereotyped and considered Bitches. Is it still a man's world? And what do we have to do to take charge without being depicted as something worst. We can do so much more than what we are given credit for and I'm pretty sure if recreation lied in the hands of men, the world would be under populated. So why are so disrespected, Is it our faults? Have we made ourselves the butt of jokes or is this something that we just can't help and hopefully will overcome. And has women have we taken our sexuality to far or like a nice car we like to show it off. Personally I little bit of cleavage can make that little black dress Right! I've got curves and I like to flaunt it but I don't let it become me. So tell me what you Think?

I think you raise such an important issue for all of us (including men) to think about. The questions I want to add to those you are raising: why do women who dress provocatively do this? What are the social conditions that promote such choices? And what are the social conditions that lead to women in authority roles to be perceived as something unappealing or bad?

We've come a long way in some respects, but in others the struggle for women to be people too is ongoing. And even at the most local levels it takes a lot of energy: young women worry about how they should look, what they should wear, how they need to present themselves to be taken seriously in various places and ways. I don't think young men have the same burden -- at least not in the same way. I could be wrong about the last part, though. What do others think?

We as women have come a long way from what we once were, but some women don't know the difference of loving and respecting oneself from having those around you love and respect you. Many women have faught (in inspirational ways) to help are gender rise to the level we are at today, but many other women seem to believe its easier to gain "attention" for their cause or "gainging power" by flaunting themselves and degrating other women around them with the same deragotive words men have been using to put women down!
