In my country (Singapore), many people think that the females are underprivileged. They keep going on and on about the what no jobs, no freedom, no whatever blahblahblah. But in this post, I am going to explain this thing from my point of view.
Nowadays, most women say them doing housework is so not fair, very hard you know! And all that rubbish. Uhhh... very hard right? Why not go and switch places with your husband and lets see how you like it.
Okay. I'll give a run-down on what the daily schedule of most people:
Female: wake up at 8. Brush teeth. Clean the house. Cook or buy from downstairs. Clean a bit more. Snack. Go to the spa for some slimming trash. Eat after you come home. Make a quick dinner. Sleep.
Male: Wake up at 5 am. Quickly brush teeth, get a car, and go to work. Get the briefing for today. Get to your cubicle as fast as you can. Workworkwork. Have a really fast sandwich for lunch. Rushrushrush. Workworkwork. Hand up the project and cost estimates and the like. Run back to your cubicle. Write a report. Hand it up, while mentally calculating the work costs and balancing the risk of marketing in an open market and whatever. Go back home drained at 8 pm. eat the dinner. Sleep and get ready for another round TOMORROW!
(That is just a very small example. I may have missed out a few things though. )
Also, some women complain that cleaning the house is very dirty, yuck, got lizard sh** all over the place...bed so hard...stuff so heavy...go market must go there half a km you know!! Come back also have to carry 5kg of stuff. Haiyah, so hard. For five days in a row and only got two days break!!
Take a look at our NS, for example...Everyday do pushups, chinups, march and drill in the sun, sleep on really uncomfortable beds, toilet is dirtier than the garbage bin, everyday must polish everything until it is shiny, then the next day dirty everything again because of that 30km trek through the big fat muddy dark wild overgrown scary dirty and just plain horrible forest carrying a 15 kg bag for 24 hours. For 2 and a half years you know!! No break okay!
On average, most women have 3 pairs of leather high-heeled shoes, two pairs of slippers, two pairs of absolutely unused running shoes and countless socks. They also carry an $8000 dollar handbag with a $5500 wallet containing about $12.50. They also splurge on the latest fashion and attend 'birthday parties' or whatever excuse they can think of to go to the restaurant and go and eat the caviar that they actually don't like.
On average, men have one pair of work shoes, one half bottle of polish left over from NS, one pair of slippers and maybe one pair of sandals. They carry a $50 dollar synthetic leather bag to work, where they earn $2000 a month. They use every excuse they can think of to avoid going to restaurants to save money.
Furthermore, when a couple divorces, usually due to the wife spending too much and not doing anything but spend, spend, spend, the husband still has to give half the pay to the wife, who can now go and live the rest of her life in comfort without doing anything.
I think that a rule should be passed to make women less lazy and make them save a bit more, and that when a couple divorces they just divorce and there is no penalty or whatever.
Whew! 608 words.
Edit: Oh.....not to forget....
The international Women's day was created in 1909(today) and is celebrated all over the world. The International MEN'S DAY was created in 1999 and it is only celebrated in TRINIDAD(wherever that is). Is that unfair or what?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Whew again! 659 words! Far past the minimum.
