Effects of Gender bias

Women
Lack or low level of self-esteem
Feeling of loss or no or little control over
ones body.

Gender Bias Also Affects Men

Men are seen;
To be inherently aggressive
Not to feel emotional pain
To be capable of experiencing human
relations at the affect level
To be inherently compulsive in their sexual
behavior
Not need attention and closeness

REMEMBER THESE
4 Main Premises
Not a War of the Sexes
Not anti male or female
Both women and men are the victims,
although women more than men.
Both have a stake in the struggle for gender
equality.

A Mans Prayer
A man was sick and tired of going to work
everyday while his wife stayed at home. He
wanted her to see what he went through so
he prayed:
Dear Lord, I go to work everyday and put in 8
hours while my wife merely stays at home. I
want her to know what I go through, so
please allow her body to switch to mine for a
day.

God in his infinite wisdom, granted the mans

wish. The next morning, sure enough, the
man awoke as a woman. He arose, cooked
breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids,
set out their school clothes, fed them
breakfast, packed their lunches, drove them
to school, came home and picked up the dry
cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stop at
the bank to make a deposit, went to grocery
store for shopping, paid the bills and
balanced the check book. He cleaned the
cats litter box and bathed the dog.

Then it was already 1 P.M and he hurried to

make the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust
and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. Ran to
the school to pick up the kids and got into an
argument with them on the way home. Set
out milk and cookies and got the kids
organized to do their homework, then set up
the ironing board, and watched TV while he
did the ironing. At 4:30 P.M he began peeling
potatoes, washing vegetables for salad,
breaded pork chops and snapped fresh
beans for supper.

After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the

dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the kids,
and put them on bed. At 9 PM, he was
exhausted and though his daily chores
werent finished, he went to bed where he
was expected to make love, which he
managed to get through without complaint.
The next morning, he awoke and immediately
knelt by the bed and said: Lord, I dont know
what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy
my wifes being able to stay at home all day.
Please let us trade back

The Lord, in his infinite wisdom replied:

My son, I feel you have learned your lesson
and I will be happy to change things back to
the way they were. Youll just have to wait 9
months though, coz you got pregnant last
night.
