As I strive to wholly commit to appreciating and loving my femininity as a woman, I struggle to understand why men are bad to women. Why do they treat us badly? How come they get away with it? Why do they go out of their way to make us feel worthless?
All these are questions that plague me. The world cannot be so unfair that women were placed on this world to be under men. To be ruled by men and ordered around by men. That women are to answer to men. Where is any fairness in that? Are we less than?
In this post, I’ve decided to look within me and reflect on the reasons why men are bad to women. I have a few answers that make a lot of sense. Otherwise, I still continue to reconcile some of these bitter facts.
Before I go any further, I want you to know that I’m looking at the men in my life and how they treat women, including me. I have also made these claims based on observations throughout the years. You can totally share your opinions in the comments.
Why are Men Bad to Women?
Let’s explore the confines of my mind and what they have to say about the question: Why are men bad to women?
Men want to control women
Men want to control women because they CAN control them. If they get a chance to lord over someone, they will. Unfortunately, this is also a result of their childhood upbringing. Little boys grow up feeling that they are better than women. Men want to control their wives. They want to be in charge of everything they do.
Men want to treat women like objects. They believe they can toss women around and do with them what they like. They treat their fellow men better than they treat the women who mean a lot to them.
Men view women as different to them
Women have this saying: Sisters before misters. On the other hand, men now have the catchy: Bro’s before Ho’s. The difference between the two is that women barely have any sisterhood amongst themselves. In fact, they are capable of throwing away their friendship for a man. However, guys will literally hold down their bro’s. They stick together and have each other’s backs.
Men view women as a separate breed compared to them. This comparison goes a dangerous road when men begin to believe that women are lower than them or that they are better than any other woman. In fact, they feel threatened by passionate women and work to bring them down.
Men are obsessed with self preservation
Sadly, a lot of women like myself are not in the business of preserving our well being, or protecting our self. First of all, we have low self esteem and self worth. We hate ourselves. We feel useless. We feel that we have no substantial worth in this world. On the other hand, men have their priorities set on their person. They will do whatever it takes to remain free and independent. They don’t even think of their contribution to this world. All that matters to them is that they are able to do what they want to do.
