"This is for my girls all around the world
Who have come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinking all women should be seen not heard
So what do we do, girls, shout louder."
~Can't hold us down by Christina Aguilera

This was song I was listening to, these were the lyrics we heard when my father, Lewis Alexander Boggs the fourth, told me exactly why we women are not as equal worth as a man.

This man had been a mechanic in the Vietnam War, dishonorably discharged. He, at one point had commanded a group of women, in the war or after when he lived in Korea I'm not sure. As he put it, they were completely incapable of doing anything mechanic let alone just changing a tire which is why it is completely wrong that women should ask to be treated equally to men. As he saw it we are completely incapable of performing to the same level as a man, we are the weaker sex not worth much at all.

It's for this reason that he nor his father acknowledge I'm working toward a college degree. Why my grandfather insisted on reading the morning newspaper to my mother instead of letting her reading it by herself (As she herself only has two college degrees).

My car wouldn't start the other day. The battery was fine, the alternator was fine, everything was fine. The most likely reason for my car troubles was that someone had set off my security feature. Someone who had just recently found out where I live (I was being patriotic and had registered to vote). Someone who thinks women should not be educated or be equal to men perhaps?

This is the man we let loose on our streets. A man who has told his daughter she'll turn out to be nothing but a whore and will stop at nothing trying to make her one. I'm actually more sad for the man, as that's really just pathetic!
