America....My Way....[Beth]

What, may I ask.....
Does America have to offer us these days? The backlash of a falling economy? The horrible discrimination we see in schools all over the world? Again I ask, what does "she" have to offer us. And that's another thing...Calling America a "she" makes me wonder if the "Founding Fathers" were sexually deprived or planned on making everything that goes wrong, no matter how big or small, a woman's fault?

Have you ever thought about how much the female sex means to this country? Not only do we have extremely powerful political women like Hilary Clinton and SarahPalin, but we have many women serving side by side with the men in Iraq. Think about this guys, we're the ones who made the homes and took care of the children. And what were you doing? Sitting on your ass, drinking beer trying to figure out how to kill your fellow American during the Civil War. Really? Don't get me wrong, you played an EXTREMELY important part in this Nations history....

But so have we. American women, even those in high power, are paid .75 cents less on average that the American man in the same position...or even a lower one. I don't understand why we're frowned upon. So, ladies....here's my challenge for you....STAND UP! Let your voice be heard....

And men...

Sit your LAZY ass down, Shut UP and LISTEN!!!

Peace, Love and Empowerment...

  1. Not dissing women or anything (God knows I love 'em) but there is a (stupid) reason why, on average, women get payed less.
    When a boat is sinking or there's a fire, a crash, anything, women and children are saved first.
    Like I said, it's a stupid reason, but still
