Be strong my brother, DON’T ACT LIKE A WOMAN! A common sentence used by men to sooth fellow men when they become emotionally vulnerable!
Why is weakness associated with women? Vaguely, the notion is that women are incapable of being strong every time. ‘Be strong’ suggests you remain stoic even in the face of adversity. For women, this is something they can hardly control, as each menstrual phase influence mental processes and moods differently, making it almost impossible to retain the same personality through the month. Women are emotionally strong or weak depending on which phases they are. This ultimately affects how they react to various circumstances. Women are therefore viewed as delicate and emotional.
Science has pointed this aspect to the ever changing phases of a woman’s cycle.
It’s okay to be a woman, but it’s even better to work out these emotions and function albeit optimally in this whirlwind economical times and seasons that demand both mental and physical strength.
