Men versus Women.

Although I have had a drink, I think I still understand what I'm on about and make sense.
Joshua Ellidge, this one is for you, because he keeps asking me to blog again. I know I should blog more, but I guess I'm no exception when it comes to the majority who stop blogging when they fall in love.

Anyway, I'm writing this whilst in the living room of my boyfriend's flat with loads of sexist boys who think we shouldn't be here because they're playing Fifa and that means that girls can't be around. There are a couple of girls here too, and so far I'm having a pretty good night.

It's crazy how much gender makes a difference, how different females act in comparison to males. I never really noticed quite how much until I came to university and the boys were much more sexist than any other men I'd come across before and they shock me. They think it acceptable to isolate us, or think they can control us or put us in our "place", but they have no idea what goes through girls' minds, and how much of a free spirit most of us are. They don't understand, and never will, how much we think or what we think about.

Why is it that we're not equal? I understand that physically we are different, and men have a bit of an advantage in some aspects. But mentally? They can't honestly believe they have any advantage. I mean, using me for an example, I know some of my grades can be average, (some are good and some are just okay), but I know that if I put the effort in that I should then I'd be a pretty intelligent girl. More intelligent, for example, than many of the boys in this living at the moment. I know that I'm picking the example to my advantage because I could pick a not-so-intelligent girl and a more intelligent guy, but I do believe that women are on the same par, or even better mentally than men.

It definitely depends on the personality of the people in question. How much they value commitment, how much effort they put into things, how moitvated they are. All massive parts to how mentally capable someone is. I guess whether or not you were born as an intelligent person makes a difference. Well that's just talking about intelligence; working and learning.

How about mentally coping with situations? I wonder who would win that battle? I reckon it would be pretty equal gender-wise. I suppose that is also quite closely related to personality aswell.
I guess that doesn't really matter, because the only person that that battle is with is yourself.

But still, I will never believe that women have any less stance in this world than men do, be it physical (yeah yeah, I know I'm contradicting myself but the best of the best at a specific sport and I'm sure women would be able to give men a game of it), or mentally. Especially mentally actually.

I hope one day that all women prove that they're as good as or better than the men in their lives.
I know I will.
