With all this talk about feminism these days and women standing up for themselves, I have a hunch that some of them may have taken it to the extreme. I'm all for equal pay and equal partnerships. I'm for women being in power in boardrooms and offices. I'm also for women staying at home with the kids or leading classrooms. I'm for not being looked down upon for being less than a man. And I'm for women having their own thoughts and ideas.
But, there's a small faction of women that have gone overboard with the whole I'm woman, here me roar schtick and those are the women that are hurting the rest of us. These women have gotten to a position of power. They've made it to the top by working hard and being good at what they do. But instead of helping other women, they use their power for evil. They don't help. They don't mentor and they sure as heck don't treat other women as equals.
I'm not entirely sure where I'm going with this but I suppose I'd just like to say: What's that about?! Feminism would go a whole lot further and a lot more smoothly, if we were all in it together rather than that old dog eat dog world...Just a thought.
