    Oh wow, this monologue is so sexist to boys. Such a hypocrite.

      are you an idiot… reverse misogyny can’t exist because the oppressors hand is so strong… if you need further explanation I’d be willing to help educate you :) ❤️

      @@nancyr7515 Please do, even if it's typically men being sexist it's not impossible for a girl to be stereotypical and discriminative, like this one.

      @@art9152 feminism and the idea of the empowerment of women does not equal hating men. the concept of systematic oppression occurs when a society actively engages in the long term and unjust oppression of a group of people (whether it’s a racial minority, women, the LGBTQIA+ community, etc.) it becomes this way when societal functions and norms and negative and harmful preconceived connotations of groups of people instilled in the nation (media, culture, “tradition”, etc.) and for this reason, women are not in a higher position than men- men hold the power. I don’t know if you’re a racist minority or not, but I am, and this won’t make sense to you if your not but, you know my group and I like to make ‘omg white people’ jokes, it basically is like wow this group is at it again, and if your a white person who isn’t racist you know IT DOESNT APPLY TO YOU. it’s not from a place of hate, it’s from a place of frustration that things haven’t changed.
      Sure, women can have stereotypes and notions in their mind about men. But if I’m wordsmithing, sexism is a word to describe the institutionalized hate from men towards women. Not the other way around.
      To me, I understand this monologue as a means of, like with what I said earlier with my personal comparison, frustration with the way things have been and continue to be. It takes a satirical stance on just how few women really hold the power or are represented correctly in society. As of 1 September 2021, there are 26 women serving as Heads of State and/or Government in 24 countries, the wage gap still exists and is even larger for women of color, women struggle to get basic health rights even in the US, a country perceived to be “free.”
      The expression of frustration through an art medium is how change happens. It’s not about one gender being above another. Feminism is about it being equal above all else and leveling the playing field. If you acknowledge the issues women face in today’s society (i can keep going on this if you’d like) and understand women have been and still are systematically oppressed, and you acknowledge that this is wrong, I hate to say it but that means you’re a feminist. ❤️❤️❤️
      if you want me to clear anything else up I’d be happy to :)

      The monolgue may be referring to stereotypes and I believe stereotypes are always harmful but, it is a monologue- it is meant to be dramatized and the person performing it did not write it. She is not sexist, she is simply performing a work from a published play.
