Antigone: The Feminazi

The difference between a man and a woman is that the woman has been protected and sacred in many cultures since the beginning of time. People have gotten used to women having much more protected roles. This is probably due to the fact that women bear children and in the past it was necessary to protect them for the future of the tribe. If there was a pregnant women then obviously it would be a problem to have them running around hunting things. This has changed to not letting them work because now the way we get our food is to work somewhere to be able to buy it. It carries on the traditional idea of men providing for women into modern terms, but it is no longer mandatory. There is no longer danger to get food. On top of that women these days don't have kids all the time just so that one will survive. This means that a woman can now have a child and not be worried about having another just to carry on the family. So now women are getting there independence since they just have to break the outdated tradition of not working and providing. From a male point of view sometimes we feel like we are doing what we are supposed to and may not be the individual feelings of the man.
