Self -(E)steamed hard to believe the words that can come from some men's mouths the prejudices that show and the hateful sounds that show a woman hater from inside his being could forgive once but never again for life has more to offer than listening to someone so unhappy that a normal conversation cannot be had those words still sting those mouth sounds cling to my skin, even a hot soaking cannot relieve today because words can be both soothing and yet so destructive...

this brought a smile, isn't it perfect to come to this point in life, kinda like opening up your wings and flying for the first time... this is why I kinda doubt the words of the Bible, b/c these men...thought of women the very same way... Women were not meant to be surpressed or judged as the lesser of the species, yanno?  yet, so so many cultures, did and still do, submit to this belief? Why? What in the world were men afraid of? Is this alter ego...to me, this was the first sign of prejudice...not to mention, can you imagine, burning women at the stake for having a voice...like I've always said, If I'd been alive back then, I'd be ashes...  Excellent write, you've got my attention...can you imagine the men who think like this, what they are missing? Pity...and yes, indeedy, words can kill, the heart, mind and soul, not to mention, the flesh could forgive once but never again for life has more to offer than listening to someone so unhappy that a normal conversation cannot be had AMEN!  |

YOU deserve so so much more...and believe in the old saying, beware of the wolf bearing gifts, or something like that...one that is way flattering, they practice on who they think are needy women, or women on the rebound, or young young women who know no better...and there are so many good intellegent, allowing men out there who would not be intimidated by your strength, but more so, would be complimented by it....

"because words can be both soothing and yet so destructive..." I agree! JL  Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. ~Jesus Christ |

Well there pretty much isn't anything I can say that LeeJ hasn't already said other than that this is quite the thought provoking piece. Oh and amen to you for speaking the truth. ~J. |

"the prejudices that show and the hateful sounds" True of both men and woman, Maureen. Words need care in giving...I'm sorry they've hurt you. |
