Women get hurt, blame. cry, mourn, whine, eat lots of chocolates and ice creams. shop but in the end get over it. They move on. Whereas on the other hand, men act all macho about the loss, are unaffected (apparently) and move on. But in the end they are the ones who carry the hurt they were borne to, subjected to and it gets down to affecting their future decisions and relationships.
How many women have we mat who say "Naaaa I don't want to get married, too much heartache" as compared to the number of men who dont believe in the institution of love or marriage likewise.
Take "Ghosts of the Girlfriends Past" a movie I saw last night to relax and unwind rather it got me to thinking and lead to this. Two thoughts:
(a) Men hold the injustice done to them, the heartbreak they are subjected to and it affects their future relationships
and a conclusion
(b) If a guy is hurt and he ends up being a player, hes HURT but if a woman stops believing in the institution of love or relationships then well simply put shes a SLUT.
In the movie I am talking about, young Connor Mead (Matthew McConaughey) is hurt in love when her childhood love goes away to dance with the popular senior at the dance at school!! That night along with his uncle (A Playboy) decides that he would never be hurt again, would never feel the pain that he did that night. And the rest is history. History of affairs, one night stands, women, women and women.
Movies on the same lines would be The Ugly Truth too, where a heart break in the life of Gerad Buttler is hinted at..!
I can recall atleast half a dozen guy friends who are 'too scared to commit' or 'dont believe in commitment', almost all with a history of major heartbreaks. On the other hand I know so many girls who have had major heart breaks but dont give up on the institution of love. Guys are more affected by their parents married lives than are women. Here I donot wish to make a generalisation. Its my observation.
Men, wouldnt it be easier to just cry over it, accept it as a part of life and move on? Think how many women you would save from heart breaks..!!
Also, likewise if a woman gives up on the idea of love or serious relationships or marriage and the likes then they are merely and blatantly SLUTS!! If we are indeed the weaker sex then why arent we allowed to give up more easily? Should it be the other way round? Men are stronger, we expect them to be, the entire population expects them to be, if they give up then they are man-whores instead of the other way round..!!
-Amen
i LOVE this post. Men are sore losers. They can't take rejection. Well, most of them can't. And it's true, one heartbreak for them means that all girls are going to break their hearts. Come on guys, have a heart, it's not like you you folks are the only ones who suffer and are rejected.
ReplyDeleteAnd, if girls give up, they are called sluts. that's just sexist. if a girl smokes, she's a slut. if a guy smoke, oh it's ok because he's a guy!! i think im going off the topic. lol.
anyway, chica, girl, you rock! :D

@thanks charsi.. :-)
ReplyDeletewell taking examples of movies is not such a good idea...if you have seen 500 days of summer then you will find the female version of gerrard butler in ugly truth...I believe women are not so comfortable with the idea of avoiding the institution of marriage ... because they live in the male dominating society and they are told from the very beginning that one day they will be married to a guy who will take care of her forever and so you don't have to do it yourself!...this feeling later becomes a necessity for most of the women, which gave birth to the institution called marriage. sorry but love cannot be a institution while marriage is!!..there are always damsel in distress ,it's never knight-errant in distress....this world suppress whatever could be suppressed...In india women enjoys being suppressed..they don't know what freedom is..they love being bondage..There is one lady in delhi, i would not like to name her...Her husband comes every night drunk and beats her but that lady is ok with it...she feels her husband is her God and she is in this world to serve him...Only women burned themselves in sati , it was never a guy.......My point is, It's not about male or female it's about how strong is your soul . Do you have the courage to stand with your point till you die .If are courageous enough to fight and face the world then no matter what you do,no one will call you a slut.
