"I do not need a man to be successful in life" she says
"Enjoy your car, made by a man" he says
"Enjoy your electricity, made by a man" he says
"Enjoy your technology, made by a man" he says again
"Enjoy your life. Given to you by a woman."
Yes a woman needed a man for about .5 % of the time. But It was a woman who carried him for nine months, gave up a part of her body for him, worried for him, and went though the agonizing pain of childbirth to get him here. Some women even gave their lives for him. And the whole time she bared this child she provided for the father, cleaned, cooked, cared for him if he got sick while also maintaining her own life.
Without a woman, the sperm a man provides for the conception of a child would just be a white stain on the bed sheets.
Enjoy your beauty standards, made by a man
Enjoy your "perfect female" image, made by man
Enjoy your mental troubles when you can't meet our standards, made by men
Enjoy the insults, made by men
Things that are never said by men
Point out the good the men have done. But never the bad.
Behind every great man... is the woman who birthed him.
