Women are still not paid as much as men in a majority of fields and professions.  There are more and more women in the work force these days, and more and more lady bosses.  Barriers are still being broken through, which is A+ for forward movement, but less so for the fact that those barriers still exist.  ¹

Equality.  All the way around.  No one is better than the other.

Except.  Jars are really hard to open.  My hands just aren’t big enough to get around the massive lids and I can’t get the leverage to turn them.  I can carry the giant boxes around the room, but why should I have to when I can just yell “Boy!  Help me.”  I know I can learn to be handy, but why should I have to when many boys already seem to be.

Being raised from in the south, I’m really into men with manners.  I like having my doors opened for me and to be stood up for when I come to/leave from a table.  Should these traditions be thrown by the wayside just because times are changing and moving forward?

Is feminism the death of chivalry?

Also, cockroaches are gross.
