Are Women Over 30 “Expired” As The Patriarchy Suggests?
Women fight to win femininity battles and brag about face cards that earn men while men fight to win wars. Literally and figuratively.
So from my observations, interactions, and experiences with women I can admit that this man is not completely off his rocker with his claims about looks being the only currency women own, and the older a woman gets her currency, or value decreases. Here’s why:
This is how so many ladies present their own value to begin with! This is the only value they think they have! Shocked yet?
Seriously, how many women actually believe they have something to offer the world other than being someone’s better half and “mama bear?” Through the patriarchy, are men actually holding women back from attaining real power in the world and establishing their identity outside of simply being beautiful, youthful, and fertile, or are women shying away from being successful, intimidating, intelligent, and wealthy because they are always worrying about their limited dating prospects the higher they ascend in life?
