WHAT IS WRONG with WOMEN today?

Question

(im not aiming at all women) When I talk to women i cant but notice how they talk and act. They say things like niiga, hoez, bitches; where has the femininity gone? why do they act like pigs? Theres nothing left in women today, its like their some homeless people in the ghettos. Why do they act like this. In my opionin women have lost what it means to be a woman. To be a woman you must behave like one. How does one behave? well i wouldnt know im not a woman, but what i can say, is that she doesn't go around talking to people and saying things like slut hoez ****** haters, ***, all of these words and anger thats built in woman, they should seek help, its absolutly not attractive, they show their insecurity right away; have some respect for yourselves women.

Answer 1

Though this is Womens Studies, I will take it a step farther. I have noticed that males tend to use the same words and expressions no matter who they may be talking to. It is not at all attractive...its not cool...its not hot...its just rude and ugly. You all want to be different, have your own thing, do your ghetto and gangsta...its NOT impressing anyone, nor intimidating anyone. We just see it as a bunch of copy cat behavior, sorry. You want to be different, you want respect, you want to be heard...then just be yourself, not a carbon copy of the guy or girl down the street.

WAY back in the Stone Age, the men were the hunters and protectors. The women hung out in the cave, raised the kids, and prepared the meals. This WAS "society" for say a million years or so. What CHANGED it all, was when our MEN were sent off to fight for our Country at war (not just the USA either) leaving MANY businesses without employees, AND many families without any income. Women had to go to work - the problem was, they did not want to give it up once they had it. I agree - for many many reasons, society as a WHOLE would benefit from women not HAVING to produce an income. It would be GREAT if American companies could AFFORD to pay men more so their wives could stay home. It would be fantastic if every Father would pay his share of the child support........I could go on, but what is the point. There is NOTHING wrong with being a homemaker - IF you can, it IS the ultimate thing you can do for your kids. I am one and proud of it. "God" supposedly says many things that have been translated, edited, and then written by a human. Who really knows what, if anything, "God" really said or did or why. What society is today, and what life was a zillion years ago, really cannot be compared. Do what you know is right no matter what.

Answer 3

Do you really want to know what I think? This will probably make you mad because I know it is not what you are looking for or want to hear, but I'm just giving you my honest opinion, ok?

I think that, first off, the media (just the part I'm talking about) is mostly run by women and gay guys, right? Like fashion media. Runway, etc. It tells men what they should want from a woman. Excessivly thin, they must shave, be pretty, stereotypical. Men then turn around and go out for that kind of women, sometimes subconsiously sometimes otherwise. Just today I answered a question that asked if a guy should stop letting his girlfriend eat because he thought she was fat. He included her height and curent weight, and with some quick calculations I found that she is almost 40 lbs. underweight already and he STILL thinks she should be thinner. Is that wrong or what? And even in your question "they should seek help, its absolutly not attractive" Well so what if it's not. A lot of women really are insecure and people constantly telling them that they need to be thin. They need to be pretty. It really doesn't help. I do admit that it is really women that bring it on themselves, but it still doesn't help that men don't want you if you don't shave and don't want you unless you are 40 lbs. underweight. So you wonder why they are so insecure? It's because people can't just let them be. Trust me, we have enough problems without people bringing it up all the time.

What's wrong with men today? You'd think they'd learn by now not to stereotype us or make us fit into their narrow definition of a "lady" and not to punish us by calling us names if we don't fit that definition.

You know what? I swear sometimes. I'm not a pig, though, nor am I insecure, nor am I "ghetto" or angry. I'm human. Sometimes, I find myself in a situation where a swear word is the most appropriate one. What do you say when you're having a butt-awful day, and then you miss your bus because the busdriver has decided not to notice you running pell-mell towards him and he totally did see you and then it starts to rain?

Your question is the very definition of sexism. Women are people. We are not pretty little things that act like perfect ladies all the time. Do you always act like a perfect gentleman? I'd guess not. Sometimes, people get sick, or angry, or frustrated. It doesn't make them bad; it makes them human. Your question is denying a woman's basic humanity. Do I think there should be more respect in our culture? That's a whole other question. But I don't think the weight of that responsibility should fall solely on the shoulders of women.

And if you don't think you're being sexist, why on Earth did you only ask this question about women? Men are just as bad, if not worse. Why is it, yet again, our responsibility to be demure and patient?

Answer 5

Your question depends on their age. All young girls, not women, speak to their peers that way, whether boys or girls. If you are a young man, then express your feelings to the girls you are with. I am sure they will respect what you are saying and be a little more..."lady like" but women, that's different. I don't know any women my age, no matter what race or area to which they live still speak in that manner. I know a lot of women that are professional, kind, sweet and still can belt out a few truck driver terms when needed and heck, we all say a few slang words or curses when we are just hanging out but most of time we speak in an intelligent manner. Besides, women can be and act any way they feel comfortable, you don't see questions regarding, "What happen to all the polite men"? Men that will open a door for a women, help her carry heavy things...and so on. I think women have to walk a fine line. If they are too aggressive their too manly. If they are too sweet, they are prudish. If they are too independent, they are snobbish. It's not easy being a woman.........but it sure is fun!

Answer 6

The media is what is wrong with women. Oh and lets not forget those ever so lovable women of the 70's women's rights movement who told us to get out and work. Yeah that sounds wonderful, we had it great before that men holding doors, paying all the bills, all we had to do was put a meal in front of them once a day! The media tells us that ALL of those men were awful wife-beaters...not true. Now not only do clean, take care of our children, hold our own doors open, and now PAY our own BILLS. Women today feel they must act like men to gain respect!

Answer 7

Traditioanlly, woman=vulnerable. A t least, in the last seven thousand years, after women were mostly worshipped for miraculous child-bearing. Men figured out they were necessary for life to go on, and Oh, my, what issues. We women are getting our just desserts.
Now, we don't see it this way. The only way to survive, emotionally, is to try to be equal, powerful, etc.
Femininity has been associated with manipulation, and indeed, that is the only way feminine really wiles work. I've tried to go without them. I know.
Now, if a woman acts like the men around her, that makes total sense given the cultural crossroads to which we've come.
So, if you want this to change, help find a way in which can assert themselves, without being catty. Go ahead, try to find the man who will actually take your advice at the moment you make a suggestion. Even my young osn will reject my idea, and then come around five minutes, five weeks, five months later, as though my idea had been his.
This is the way it is. Sorry.

Answer 8

Date a white girl, or a mute because you know darn well why women act like that, it's their environment and up bringing I'm black and I don't do the ghetto or ghetto orientated people but if you take me there I will meet you there with the same disrespect that you give, respect me and I'll respect you. Maybe it's you that brings out the worst in them.

By this being a mostly a white forum you just sold out you should have asked this question on black planet you never let the other man know your issue with your brother man that's why we have no unity now because of people like you why don't you sit down and have a heart to heart talk with a sista and find out her story before you come out on full blast.

Answer 9

Parents! Children aren't taught manners anymore. Women are supposed to be graceful, elegant and morally above men. Unrulyness and unattractive behavior is more tolerated more in men. Now women they get their idols off of BET and VH1. What a terrible place to look for role models. Women think men prefer a dumb blonde and for some reason a smart woman is still viewed as strange and unattractive (at least in youth). They're also immature. Can you imagine your own mother acting like the women you just descirbed? I hope not.

Answer 10

(a girl talking here) Well, I know a lot of girls don't like being called the b-word or hoe, but they frequently call other girls that! So yeah, a bit of hypocrisy there.

I guess a lot of women think they have something to prove, or they wanna be tough. And a lot of girls have a serious problem with talking- it's how we fight, with words.

I, for one, don't do anything even close to what you mentioned, and I certainly try not to swear or talk bad about others. I know that I don't need to put down others to build myself up.
But on the other hand, I don't like that many women sometimes resort to petty tactics, like gossip, slander, backstabbing, etc. to get back at girls they don't like. It's sneaky and childish.

Maybe you should hang out with different women; I know there are plenty of women who don't do this nasty stuff you just mentioned.
