Double standards between men and women



                                                      
I saw a post in Facebook today that made me boil with rage today .A male friend of mine who should have known better had the nerve to post it. The post in question went something like “it is amazing how some women take time to match their shoes with their handbags but can’t match their babies to their fathers.” I am honestly tired of how men continuously shame women who have multiple baby daddies.


Why is it that men are celebrated for the very same reason but a woman is name called ,seen as an outcast and devalued and even considered as illegible for marriage .No one ever asks where the men who were ‘kind enough to donate their juices ‘are .Where are they ? Probably out partying with his  latest catch lying about not being a father and looking for someone who is honest and is ready to settle down .Telling some cock and bull story of how a certain woman broke his poor heart and  how  he has never gotten over it. Sob! Sob! No care in the world if his child \children have eaten or even been clothed.


 Maybe he is in a bar with his friends talking about how he is not ready to settle down and how the woman is trying to tie him down with this pregnancy .He will point out that she has done it before   I mean since the woman in question  is a single mother of two already. He will rant about how she clearly wants him for his money blah blah blah.  His friends would nod sympathizing with him and buy him drinks to make him forget his troubles. Leaves you wondering what money is the woman really after…the guy can barely pay his rent.


These women have enough going on; they are working their asses off trying to bring up the kids you left behind in this tough economy. They are pulling double shifts as they are now both mom and dad to the kids the society is quick to judge and kick to the curb .The least you can do is stop making them feel like crap because they chose to believe in those lies and the deception they were fed in their desperate attempt to try love again. Don’t embarrass them because they thought that he was different than the last man but mostly don’t slut shame them because they just wanted to be happy and have a companion.


Call out the men who played with their heart strings like a harp, ask what happened. Awaken them to their responsibility .This women were just desperate for love, a man and to be a wife. It is a shame the men used them and dumped them; they are already in much emotional pain don’t add to it. Let’s stop celebrating the men with different baby mamas as if they have won a medal  especially those who don’t even chip in .Let’s try to be fair to both parties…no woman happily chooses to be a single mother .
