ask me again and I'll knock you down.
Dear Mrs. Brown,
I loved what you did yesterday in Michigan. You and your colleague were inspirational.
But you did get shut down. Like most women you were expected to act like men and not women. You stepped out of bounds when you said Vagina.
How dare you? Vaginas don't exist in politics. Only penises are real. Only penises exist in politics. Didn't you get that memo?
Why are women subservient to men? Why are women subservient? Why are men given so much and women so little?
I understand what happened to you and your colleague, Rashida Tlaib, yesterday in Michigan's House of Representatives. Silencing women has been a primary goal of men for as long as humans have existed. There is not a single human society, either in the past or the present that treat women equally to men.
Women are strong, resilient, reliable and flexible, more so than men. Women are optimistic, enthusiastic, understanding, compassionate and empathetic. Women are patient, nurturing and encouraging. Women maintain the human species. Men, in general, are more destructive, dishonest and corrupt and if women behaved as men do, homo sapiens would have died out long ago.
Throughout history women have suffered greater than men, but their suffrage has rarely been recognized by anyone.
In nearly every human society men have always been treated better than women. A man committing adultery is rarely if ever, punished for it. A woman committing adultery is invariably, shunned, flogged, beaten, stoned, raped, imprisoned, exiled or killed.
If a man beats his wife, it's usually the wife's fault. If a man rapes a woman, it is usually the woman's fault.
How many women in the world have been recognized as geniuses? How many women in the world have received equal recognition for their achievements?
Lisa and Rashida, I am so very sorry for the way you have been treated yesterday and today. Both of you should have been commended for your bravery and courage. Instead you were both treated as less. For that, I am deeply ashamed of my fellow man.
It may be cold comfort, but not every male with a penis behaves like a dick.
