Discredit the women
Story told by Mitch Deer
In Ganienkeh, they talked about women’s rights. Women are not treated equally around the world. Most cultures don’t treat women very well. They’re treated like cattle, like dogs, like camels, possessions. They’re not even humans. Sexual objects to stay quiet, cook, and raise the children. That’s all they do, like they don’t have the capacity to stand equally with a man to make decisions.
They treat the women like that.
There’s countries around the world that have women as leaders. Here, they don’t look at women as equals. There’s always a flaw they use to discredit the women.
Our women have been liberated for thousands of years. But today, everything is so f-ed up. The man is the home of his castle. Today, the rules have been reversed. So a lot of these men today treat women like dogs.
