I've C&P'd it in all its dubious glory:

"This is one of the best posts I've read about woman... Please read it completely... it's worth it...

WOMAN. . . . . . . . .

When God created woman he was working late on the 6th day.......

An angel came by and asked." Why spend so much time on her?"

The lord answered. "Have you seen all the specifications I have to meet to shape her?"

She must function on all kinds of situations,
She must be able to embrace several kids at the same time,
Have a hug that can heal anything from a bruised knee to a broken heart,
She must do all this with only two hands,"
She cures herself when sick and can work 18 hours a day"

THE ANGEL was impressed" Just two hands.....impossible!

And this is the standard model?"

The Angel came closer and touched the woman"
"But you have made her so soft, Lord".
"She is soft", said the Lord,
"But I have made her strong. You can't imagine what she can endure and overcome"

"Can she think?" The Angel asked...
The Lord answered. "Not only can she think, she can reason and negotiate"

The Angel touched her cheeks....
"Lord, it seems this creation is leaking! You have put too many burdens on her"
"She is not leaking...it is a tear" The Lord corrected the Angel…

"What's it for?" Asked the Angel..... .
The Lord said. "Tears are her way of expressing her grief, her doubts, her love, her loneliness, her suffering and her pride."...

This made a big impression on the Angel,
"Lord, you are a genius. You thought of everything.
A woman is indeed marvellous"

Lord said."Indeed she is.
She has strength that amazes a man.
She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens.
She holds happiness, love and opinions.
She smiles when she feels like screaming.
She sings when she feels like crying, cries when happy and laughs when afraid.
She fights for what she believes in.

Her love is unconditional.
Her heart is broken when a next-of-kin or a friend dies but she finds strength to get on with life"

The Angel asked: So she is a perfect being?
The lord replied: No. She has just one drawback
"She often forgets what she is worth".

Send it to all the women u respect ....👍

And to all men who respect woman 👍👍

W O M A N:
● changes her name.
● changes her home.
● leaves her family.
● moves in with you.
● builds a home with you.
● gets pregnant for you.
● pregnancy changes her body.
● she gets fat.
● almost gives up in the labour room due to the unbearable pain of child birth..
● even the kids she delivers bear your name..

Till the day she dies.. everything she does... cooking, cleaning your house, taking care of your parents, bringing up your children, earning, advising you, ensuring you can be relaxed, maintaining all family relations, everything that benefit you.. sometimes at the cost of her own health, hobbies and beauty.

So who is really doing whom a favour?

Dear men, appreciate the women in your lives always, because it is not easy to be a woman.

Being a woman is priceless

Happy women's week!

Pass this to every woman in your contact to make her feel proud of herself.
Rock the world ladies!
A salute to ladies!

WOMAN MEANS:-
W - WONDERFUL MOTHER.
O - OUTSTANDING FRIEND.
M - MARVELLOUS DAUGHTER.
A - ADORABLE SISTER.
N - NICEST GIFT TO MEN FROM GOD.

I respect women."

Not another one of these sorts of things. Why do they keep popping up?! Still, the last one I saw in this category was "love your wife as she does so much for you" or something like that, followed with an enormous list of chores. Woman is not synonymous with doormat!

FFS. I think that might be the worst thing I've ever read.

Talk about keeping women in their place as the Doers Of Everything - thinly veiled as "admiration". Ugh.

I saw that too and nearly barfed.

Far too fluffy for me, and the bit that says I gave up everything and gave my dh his children, gave me the fucking rage.

It's crying out for a rebuttal noting all the contributions women have made to civil society (eg rosa Parks, Aung Sang Suu Kyo), science (marie curie, Jocelyn Bell etc), the arts, literature. I could go on... The main thing I fid objectionable about it is the exclusive focus on women in a domestic, babymaking sphere.

I think it needs pointing out that once we go down the self identify route that a woman will also be able to have a full beard, penis and testicles...

Romcom not to mention the endless "for you"s imply that everyone if note is male. Women are the things real people, ie men talk about.
not eve going to start on the until the day she dies she washes your undies and has your tea on the table bollocks

Yes, vommity vom. BUT I suppose if it makes some nasty misogynist fuckers appreciate their wives/mothers a tiny bit more, within the confines of their shitty attitudes towards women, that makes it a bit less bad. Maybe.
