Mar 8 2011 - Long live women power

today is women's day and I wish each & every woman a very happy women's day!! i am not really the feminist type but yes, i do support the causes these women are fighting for, w/o subscribing to their thoughts n little respect for the menfolk in general. This does not mean that i have not had my fair share of men who must be thought little of. Let's start with a particular boss of mine who is a complete MCP. This man never wants to hire women in his team for reasons like they have timing issues, other priorities etc. This despite the few women who are in the team having shown some exceptional performance and integrity towards work. Somehow, the fact that there are women who can beat him at almost anything irks him (ofcourse there a lot of men too who can do those honours :) esp considering that he has little merit n more luck to attribute his success to). i have personally seen this man compete with me on more than one occasion on the smallest of matters. Ofcourse, i have on these occasions taken secret delight on beating him. Which smart woman doesn't love a challenge n esp wen it relates to showing an MCP his rightful place. I am a strong believer in gender equality and no bias/prejudice is all i ask for. Women as we all know deserve tremendous respect for certain qualities which men do not possess much of..their sacrificing nature, their patience, their unconditional love and the like. Without these qualities i do not think the human race can survive, procreation is one thing and raising an infant is another. Women are responsible for every man on this planet, if not for their care in his infancy, the man would not exist so to disrespect a woman is to disrespect himself.
