(110,159 posts)that girls, women are presented to them to be enjoyed. a poster said it well. " beautiful things to be enjoyed." you grow up being taught this is womans role to you. you are conditioned a life time being told women merely are " beautiful things to be enjoyed.". so any woman that comes in eye sight to you are there to provide you with " beautiful things to be enjoyed.".
women are not raised this way to view men. never. we are not conditioned to go around seeing men as " beautiful things to be enjoyed.". we are not entitled thru out life being presented with men as " beautiful things to be enjoyed.". so we see them as a person.
but a man sees women as " beautiful things to be enjoyed."
women get tired of going out of their house and continually running into the entitlement of " beautiful things to be enjoyed.". i am not here for you to enjoy. my body, my being is not a gift to you. you do not get to own me as a " beautiful things to be enjoyed." even if it is for 15 sec.
you want to know the difference? it is not a tough one. see a woman as a person and you are not looking her as " beautiful things to be enjoyed."
it really is not that tough. you men are not entitled to ownership of strange women walking down the street even for that 15 sec
