As a woman

I had no idea of "what is women" before falling in a relationship in a comparatively equal sexual society.

I was once being oppressed when living in a remoted closed village in young age, a girl as an evil being whom shall be confined in a house for "producing boy creatures". It is not the story at my home but as a young girl in that context were still nourished by this notion.

For most of the village women, giving birth and being housekeeper are their destiny, the natural responsibilities she should not deny. As Simone de Beauvoir pointed out, women are "the other" subordinate to male.

Freedom is always the fundamental need of presenting self as a human being. The more feminist doctrine I'd read, 5e more I respect Jane Eyre in her early 19th century. Jane chose what she loved rather than attached to the man she could rely on.


Women are always too good to the other part, too emotional and too dependent. Why you laid down for man and soon so easy. We choose clothes that can't act free, choose shoes that can't run fast. Could we protect the flesh rather than skin only?
