being a woman

why is it that we are expected to deal with shit and just act like it doesnt bother us.

why is it when something bad happens, divorce, death, debt, that we are supposed to be strong.

why is it that men dish it out but can't take it.

we are not allowed to be depressed, we are not allowed to be human.

when we show any type of emotion men act like we are being cry babies or emotional. emotional is not a bad word.
