Well, now days we don't have to suffer as much...
-Don't have to get pregnant
-Could take birth control constantly and avoid periods
-Learn self-defense and carry a gun...
-Refuse to be abused..fight back...
-Don't clean the house if you don't want to

Bleeding monthly is related to pregnancy. It can't happen to both genders because if they BOTH had eggs, then no one would have sperm, and therefore the human race would not be able to continue.

Rape happens to men. Actually, rape for men often happens when they are children. It happens to grown men, too, though. Homosexual rape, as well as females raping men. It does happen!

Men get abused. It can be by other men (friends or homosexual relationships), but it can also be women. Men are more likely to physically abuse others, but women can be physically abusive, too. Also, women abusers often abuse men emotionally. They can emasculate him with their words and really mess him up psychologically.

Women often do "women's jobs" in America out of choice. I'm sure there are some men who still want women who will stay home, but there are also enough men out there who want a working wife. You are not bound to the home any longer!

I don't see why people complain about these things. Women live longer than men. While men are typically physically stronger, women typically have greater endurance...

If you really think about it, you could also make a list of BENEFITS of being a woman over a man. There's really no use in complaining, though. Should I say "I'm sorry that you're a woman"? Come on, now. Being a woman is not unbearable! You're a woman. Accept it, and move on.

Boy, talk about negativety.

First off just because men suffer differently doesn't mean it's not every bit as painful.

Second I wouldn't trade my ability to get pregnant with a man. Even the ones that were painful and difficult. Emotionally hubby suffered more because men are hard wired to fix things & protect. He had to watch my pain, knowing he caused it and yet be helpless to do anything. I bonded with my child from day one. He had to wait 9 months.

Third try menopause if you think periods are so bad. I USED to feel the same as you.

Fourth (which I'll probably get a violation for) there are some that invite it by very seductive teases. But mainly it's a crime committed by those seeking power for the lack of power in their own life. As brutal as it is depending upon your personality there are emotional & psychological rapes that can be every bit as brutal that know no gender. Can you imagine a man tied down & forced to watch his wife raped? Can you begin to imagine the trauma to a man when he's hard wired to protect? Plus a man can be raped.

Fifth men can be and are abused. They just aren't as vocal about it. I've done counseling & seen it happen more times than you can even imagine.

Sixth because I enjoy it but when I worked too he had to help out. To train him for that if clothes weren't in the hamper they didn't get washed. Dishes not in the sink they didn't get washed. Cleaning house while not working I can take all the breaks I want to. Hubby has to work a straight 8 hrs. with only lunch & a couple of 15 min. breaks with most of his money going towards bills. Plus he has to do most of the repairs around the house that needs done as well as the mopping & most of the vacuuming.

You sound so much like my daughter. Her hubby wasn't particular about the cleaning, worked & always took overtime to give her as much as he possibly could while she sat on her butt & gained over 40 lbs. He was running circles trying to keep her happy. Yet she left him for some guy that treated her like crap & she asks the same questions.

As for the suffering everyone does it & it basically comes down to sin. Sin brought death, greed, lust, etc. into the world. If you've never sinned then you have the right to feel mistreated in your suffering. But if you say that you're a liar because we all do. Some may get more than they deserve, others less than they should but it's called life & it happens to both genders.

this is a very interesting question. I am not sure what you mean - some women suffer as do some men - men are also the victims of Domestic Violence. Women can get pregnant but if they are clever they wuold insist the guy tak responsibility for his penis or they would take advantage of the huge range of contraceptives available in this day and age. We bleed because we are biologically able to havea child. We get raped so do men and so do children boys and girls. Women get abused and so do men, boys and girls. Women do clean the ouse but men do to infact I think some men are better cleaners - its very old fashioned for cleaning to be considered a womens job now days. women do suffer but not to the extent they did 50 years ago. we have far more advantages and oportunities then our mothers or mother's mothers. I think women need to be more assertive to take advantage of them, but never the less there is certainly less suffering by women in the wester world or developed countries with girls leadinf the academic way and betaing the boys at education attainment.

I'm a woman and I assure you that I do not and am not suffering.
I love being pregnant.
That bleeding thing is a part of life.
Not all women get raped.
Not all women get abused.
Cleaning the house can burn off a few calories.
In reality it's a matter of attitude; you have a good attitude you see things in a much brighter light than when you're in a funk everything stinks..

We are stronger inside if not physically, I wouldn't be a man if given the choice. Periods and pregnancy, the pain of childbirth, are woman's cross to bear. Nothing we can do about that. All the pain washes away when the Dr puts your baby in your arms, I would go through all that pain just to have that felling of joy women get at the sight of their newborn baby, and have 3 times.
Men wouldn't be able to handle the discomforts of pregnancy let alone the pain of childbirth, they would figure out a way to clone rather than go through all that pain. God gave us these responsibilities not because of the sins of Eve, but because we are the ones who can endure it. We are smart, that gives us the edge we need to overcome the obstacles put before us.
Abuse, get out, better to be in the women's shelter penniless than to endure abuse at the hands of someone who can overpower you into submission.
Rape, you may not be able to escape your attacker, he may take your body for his selfish and demented reasons at that moment, but he cannot take your soul away. You can survive, go on, be who you want to be, and take your life into your own hands. Again, if you are being raped as a form of ongoing abuse, get out, go anyplace that offers shelter for women in crisis.
House cleaning woman's work, BULLS*IT!! If a man is living in the house, he can help clean. If he works and you are able to stay home, than the housework should fall 90% on you, that doesn't mean the man can be a slob and never pick up. He can do a load of laundry once in a while, or mop a floor. If you are working full time too, than the housework should be split 50/50.Part time, 75/25. If he hates laundry, he can vacuum or dust, or be in charge of dinner a few nights a week, even if it's take-out, it's his job to put it on the table and help with the dishes. If by some miracle, I was given the choice to go back and be born a man, I would say no, I love who I am.

That's just it, because we are women.....
Do you honestly think a guy could go through all that and still have the strength and courage to continue on in life?
We're women... We were born strong and we'll die strong.
We have to go through so much, and it's mostly because of how society portrays us, but we do it.
I am proud I am a women, of course there are things that I absolutely hate about it, but I will always want to be who I am because of the strength I have and the things I have to go through and overcome.

Be happy with who you are, don't focus on the bad, and just know that you are a strong women.

Good luck with everything in life!

Because we are women. God made us this way and I think that we are better for it. Women make the world go around. But you can stand up for yourself so that you don't have to be beaten and raped and abused. Women need to fight back and stand up for what is right. We are better for what we have to go through. Women are mothers, we run households, women do a lot. Be proud to be a woman. I know I am!

The question to ask yourself is why you would persist in portraying yourself as a helpless victim, when in reality, you are wholly responsible for how your choices affect your life. And it is nonsense for anyone to believe that rape or any form of violent crime is reserved for one gender. Males and females suffer equally from violent crimes. Now, grow up and accept responsibility for your choices, or continuing being a helpless, complaining victim...your choice.

I typically sympathize with the questions that women ask regarding the hardships that you have to go through in life, I know I can't imagine what it must be like to give birth and that's one of the reasons I always think that females are some of the strongest creatures in the world...

But males get raped!

Males get abused!

These things happen more often than you seem to realize.

Now I think I have a gender identity crisis because I'm actually the one who does the housecleaning and the cooking and the dishes, I don't ask my wife to do any of that because I know that her job is more physically strenuous than mine. Sooooo...I'm a woman? :O I never realized... :O

I don't see it as suffering being pregnant and giving birth to a child. It is a wonderful experience and yes it is painful, but the joy outweighs the pain.
As we all know, men or boys get raped as well and abused. Women clean the house and men do the other hard work, like crawling under the house and repairing stuff. At the end of the day, is it really suffering or just plain complaining.
Be happy
Peace.
