The Battle Of The Sexes

The most irrelevant of all battles, the world has witnessed over centuries is most definitely the battle of the sexes. Recently someone looked me quite rudely on the face and declared, "You like bad boys. But you don't like the repurcessions that come along with trying to maintain any sort of equation with the bad boy"

He was right of course, regarding my fondness for bad boys. He was grossly incorrect with the second part of that sentence, my dead husband being case in point. He was a rebel with and without a cause. Close to 13 years and one child later, it's safe to say, of course I know how to maintain relationships, of every kind.

In hindsight I realise the following should have been my reply to him. "You like independent, self-made women, but don't like the fact that she comes with a sharp mind and tongue that she uses at will"

The whole concept of Adam and Eve has been diluted with time, thanks to ridiculous apps and just the fact that people are impatient and don't want to put in the time and effort, to build something long lasting.

Therefore, the battle of the sexes is as irrelevant as the skies trying to survive without the sun and moon. Men and women are two sides of the same coin. They have to come together to create something fruitful for themselves and ultimately for the world around them.

I prefer having a healthy debate with an opiononated human being, irrespective of the sex, as opposed to someone spineless who just chooses to ghost you.

The lack of spine that you display, will ultimately come to bite you back really hard on the ass. And in that moment, I hope you decide to either quickly grow a spine or just take accountability for everything you've ever put out into the world.

Let's be the generation that ends the battle of the sexes. Let's accept that everyone is important and plays a part in this world. Let's give and receive love and respect. 

Peace! ☮️
