Not so much

The constant changes in this world can be very unsettling, so much so, every now and then we need to step back and acknowledge this craziness we call living. So many wise words fly across the internet and of course people's mouth and, rationally they are wise. Open your mind? Accept the ever changing landscape? Be free to be you? These are self liberating and primal mindsets of mainly a "capitalist" view. Nothing may be wrong with this school of thought, yet one can not just keep "keeping up with the trend" as soon as it changes. Yes, change is constant and most times not accepted with wide arms by all. It is not necessarily redundancy or fear of the unknown but more of "what do you stand for?" A question many in this "sharp sharp" generation will find rather tedious in answering. So, as the time changes and we are encouraged to keep accepting or fighting for the change we see or want respectively, a little anchor or base of all ideals should be put in place or this generation would be lost in the wind. "stand for something or fall for anything" . So let's open our minds enough to stand a ground not just for "us" but for posterity and as much as possible diminish the sickening greed of capitalism and embrace the core of human society that promotes the growth of all. We are this society, we have it all to gain or lose. 

A case for the men

I have come across the word "feminism" too many times that I asked myself, "what is the opposite of feminism?". I asked friends and colleagues and most replied or gave answers still within the definition of feminist. To be honest, men have no peculiar categorization of the sort which is not in d least still related to how well he treats a female.  It may seem irrelevant, but this are some reasons why men should be given break on all the chivalry and what not. Men are also emotional and women know and even exploit it. Men are conscious of both their physical appearance and sexual prowess so much so aggravated by society and her depiction of man from Apollo to zeus. Financial pressure?, well its only natural you would say for a man to be judged by the amount of money or assets at his disposal. I May not have all the facts but men have so much on their table and even more pressure than women. They also need a break. The woman folk have exploited the term "weaker vessel" to a point were the stronger vessel is rarely cartered for. Mothers day, world women's day, pink ribbons, mdgs and so many more are all evidence of this love men have for women as we celebrate women and not undeservedly. Point in view is, we know, we see, we allow. It is true we are different, but men also go through as much as women.
