Proof:
~ Men historically ask women to marry them
~Men are thought of as having to sow their wild oats before they settle down
~Men will state that a woman did nothing wrong in a relationship but that they weren't ready for commitment and there for they had to end it
~Men state that their ideal woman is independent and can take care of herself, has goals for herself, and has or is accomplishing something with her life
~Men can identify several women, every time they step out of their home that could potentially be the one
~Men commit when they feel it not before not after
Where As:
~How many women can you name, or that you know of, have refused/turned down a marriage proposal? (In cases where the man was not crazy or a stalker)
~A gold digger is always in a relationship (one form or another) and the independent woman is more likely single
~A woman who has slept with ___ amount of men is thought of as promiscuous or not the type of woman a man wants to have a relationship with, and may be branded "a jump off"
(I left a space because the number really does depend on the man for some it can be 2 for others 50)
~Women will attempt to "fix" a relationship or will attempt to "work with" a man that does not meet all of her standards if the foundation of the relationship is solid and he has potential
~Women can identify several men who solely want to get into their pants, are old enough to be their father, or have several babies mama's and are not taking care of any of their kids, every time they step out of their house
~Women could potentially commit to any man at any time based on the situation and the potential for success
~Women will stay in an abusive relationship or a relationship with a lack of balance because of fear of not finding someone else or someone better
So what does this prove?
It proves that even though women are consistently told that they have the power in a relationship to direct things and to "get what they want", the fact of the matter is that 9 times out of 10 it is the man that has the real power. More often than not it is because we as women are willing to be more flexible, vulnerable, and willing to change the rules or the standards that we have made for ourselves.
Ain't that a bitch!
