What is a woman? Is she a sum of mother, daughter, sister and wife or does she have her own identity as an individual. Every man out there tends to blame women for being controlling and demanding, however isn’t it true that a man is only controlled when he sees a personal benefit in that given situation. Most men tend to be controlled by their mothers, as mother is the provider, protector and appreciator of boy(s) (her boy(s)). Mother’s role is generally replaced by one’s wife or girlfriend (nowadays) and as mentioned by most writers “One woman is another woman’s worst enemy”. Battle of control begins between the mother and the new woman in a man’s life. Regardless who wins, a woman loses and the winner doesn’t even feel sorry for the defeat of its kind.
“The torment that so many young women know, bound hand and foot by love and motherhood, without having forgotten their former dreams.” Simone de Beauvoir
Women give up their dreams to ensure that the man they love fulfills his dream however no man ever acknowledges her sacrifices. As for centuries our world, which was ruled by men and is always biased towards men has molded our thinking to believe that women is there to please men. Most women till this day ensures all the dreams and desires of their man come true, regardless of the effect of those desires on herself. As said by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, “The man's desire is for the woman; but the woman's desire is rarely other than for the desire of the man.”
“Women are like dogs really. They love like dogs, a little insistently. And they like to fetch and carry and come back wistfully after hard words, and learn rather easily to carry a basket” Mary Roberts Rinehart
Women tend to give up a lot to receive a very little and yet they tend to find happiness in the little they have gained. Men on the other hand give nothing but ask for everything; nature of a man.
Man loves little and often: Woman loves much and rarely.
