I AM NOT A SUPER WOMAN

This is the tittle of a popular music by karyn white,i wonder what goes on in the minds of fellow women when they listen to the lyrics of this song.I really want to understand the situation here,do men see women as instruments? i mean kitchen maids? baby producing machine? something to make love to when his passions are built up?or a punching bag when he is stressed up?The latter is what i am really against,amongst other things, wife battering?whey should a FOOL lift his hands and strike a woman?more so a woman he claims to love? a woman who risked her life bearing children for him?She slaves to make sure his food is well prepared,takes care of his children ....... to say the least.... satisfy his orgies,so?The beating saga have developed into another stage now,in Europe now its stabbing to death,allover Europe the number of women stabbed to death by their ex husband or boyfriend has raised to 10 per day,so? i asked this question WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS GENDER WAR?

feminists

¨Feminists as one such group have used their newly acquired power in Western societies to turn what were formerly perceived as the private troubles of women into public issues. They have shown how women’s personal troubles in the private sphere are in fact public issues constituted by the gender inequality of the social structure. It is clear that Euro/American women’s experiences and the desire for transformation have provided the basis for the questions, concepts, theories, and concerns that have produced gender research.¨ Jenda
The quotation above gives a clear meaning of what this blog is all about, a woman’s life and world view. As an African woman my personal opinion is that feminism is an extreme concept (forgive me, this is my personal view) the African woman still want to maintain her husband and children at the same time wants to be heard, she does not want to be the underdog after years of being educated, the African woman want to prove her stance in the society.
