Many of us including us women tend to underestimate our strength and our capabilities. I we as women can bare a child then there is nothing that we cannot handle. We afre stronger than we think, we need to give ourselves more credit because we are the stronger I believe mentally. Us women need to stand up and say yes we are strong and we can handle anything that comes our way it may not seem so at the time but we can handle many things we never knew that we could. We as a woman must not let anyone keep us down we have gone through to much to let any man let us feel inferior to them. We have to hold our heads up high and dont allow anyone to belitle us and let us feel unworthy as a woman. I am not saying that women are better than men I am simply saying that we women have gone through so much and still is going through alot to just accept anything but the best we are to be treated as equals we are to walk beside our man not behind him. we need to give ourselves more credit.

True. Some women tend to neglect how important they are and how strong they are. We should try to recognize that this is a fact and we aren't claiming this just because we want to be better than men. We have our own strength, we have our own capabilities. So in totality, we are just as equal as men and should never be considered as a second class, inferior being. 1 person likes this

Women do have special strengths that men do not. We have an inner survival instinct that they do not have. We will do almost anything to protect our family. It has been proven that if little girls are not told that they will not do well in math and science that they will excel in those subjects, but if they are told that they are for boys they will fail. Girls have better eye hand co~ordination. Until puberty, most girls are faster and stronger than boys their size. Women tend to use their brains to compensate for lack of brawn.
Of course, there are those women who use their femininity to get what they want instead of their brains. This makes it hard for the rest of us. Men can then use this against us.
Men who try to make women inferior to them are afraid of women. They are the ones who feel inferior and have to make up for this complex by berating and intimidating women...

hi gabbyjoe great discussion as you are so right all the way there.we go through childbirth we stand beside our men and we nurse them when ill and hold their hands. who says we are weak, we even hold our heads up and try not to sob when we lose a beloved child, we support our hubbies who cannot take the loss, and yes we grieve in silence. we are equal , we shall hold up our heads and walk in pride knowing we are somebody we are unique and we can always do more than we think we can, remember in the early days of America women could use shotguns and did to protect their livestock and their families, they came in covered wagons and helped till the land and raise their children, no we are not ever second class. I was blessed with a husband who treated me as his partner, and walked beside me and supported me always. we are women so hear us roar.

Yes, women should not be underestimated. They can do a lot of things which men cannot just do. Though, women may not be physically as strong as men , we could also be at par with them when it comes to wisdom and versatility.
I have even noticed that in our office , mostly are women employees. Though, i don't take that as to mean that women are wiser than men. It's just that, nowadays , women seem to have the most works in offices.

Looks like this is the right page for women. I don't wanna be biased. Men and women are born equal. But there are some distinct characteristics between the two. I salute all single women who raises their child alone. It ain't easy but surprisingly, they can make it.
