Is it about time that both men and women grow the entire fuck up?

This weekend I found myself asking the following questions based on the societal construct of gender roles:

Why were women born with brains if we are not expected to use them? Seriously, why on earth were we born with the same organs as men, but they are the only ones that are encouraged to create, build, and shape society and its evolution with their ideas while women are supposed to sit idly at home and wait with their hands out for any crumbs their men want to give them for a hard day’s work?

Furthermore, why do women believe they reincarnated into this lifetime to essentially function as the unpaid executive assistants of their husbands, as if we were not given our own passions, goals, and ideas to actualize? And why do they call this shit femininity?

Now I don’t necessarily hate gender roles, but I cannot help but view this construct as a clever way for both men and women to remain stuck in life through avoiding the life-transforming work of acquiring wisdom, power, and resources so they can feel as if they need each other.
