While watching a video on gender differences this week, I saw a video that really put in to words something I have been trying to place for a while. A women said, 'Equality means everyone has equal opportunities, it doesn't mean everyone is the same. Differences are good'.
I love this quote because it represents a truth we have lost in society. There is nothing wrong with having different chemical and physical makeups between men and women, it is something to be celebrated. The very view that we are all to be appreciated and comfortable with being different folds back on itself by trying to make everyone the same. We are different lets celebrate, lets fight for equality in oppurtunity! Lets stand up for being gender unique! Lets celebrate for doing things in different ways-within our own genders! Lets understand that different doesn't mean less able, it just means different.
