Female Privileges

As a woman, I face many obstacles, but I also have many privileges.

1. I can express my emotions whether they are happy, sad, etc. are not be judged as weak because of it.

2. If I don’t like my appearance, I have endless options to do something about it, such as make-up, clothes, tanning, etc.

3. I f I see small children, I can comment on how cute they are and talk to them without their parents worrying about me being a child molester.

4. When I am walking around at night, other women do not tense up around me, worrying that I might attack or assault them.

5. I am not expected to pay on dates.

6. If I choose to be a stay­-at-home parent, no one will judge me as a financial free-rider in my relationship with my husband.

7. In relationships, I can be passive and expect my male companion to be aggressive in the relationship. I would not be expected to ask a guy on the first date, ask him to move in, or ask him to marry me.

8. If my marriage fails, I am more likely to get custody of my children.

9. I can be physical with other males, like my boyfriend, and be considered playful and not worry about being accused of domestic violence in most cases.

10. If I become pregnant, I have the final chose on whether to carry the baby to full term.
