It bothers me most times to hear people say 'what a man can do a woman can'. You can even hear them saying a woman can do better, but on what basis can this be justified, where and how can a woman do what a man can do or to think of doing better. The statement has caused a lot of misunderstandings leading to unnecessary competition with men by the women. It's baseless and unreasonable for a woman to think of being a man or trying to take the place of a man by creation. A man is not a woman and a woman can't be a man no matter how she tried to. There is something that makes a man unique which no woman can match. This is beyond physical features, but something inherent by creation.
I know many will argue what has a man done that a woman hasn't, but I can tell you no matter what side of the divide you stand it is way farther than you think. A man's mind is deeper and wider than a woman's mind so is everything between the two. This is not what anyone can do anything about but what the creator of life has done from the beginning of time. It all started at the beginning of time. The inherent ability of the deepness and wideness of the mind of a man was deployed in giving names to all the creations as soon as God hands them over to the first man. The underlying truth here is that a man thinks deeper than a woman. This is evident in our daily lives, the extent to which a man can think is unmatched by a woman. I know some would say some men can not think properly for themselves, but I tell you the truth such men haven't come to a critical point in life where critical thinking is required. Another thing to discover here is that a man is older than a woman by creation hence the ability to think deeper and know better.
Can a woman do want a man can do better, I find it hard to imagine? Men are born to be burden bearers in life. The spirit of a man is different from the spirit of a woman. What a man can bear a woman can not bear it and there is no need to compare. Born into this world, the spirit in a man urges him to start taking responsibility for meeting needs. He soon grows up to have a family, before then, he needs to find a partner that comes with additional responsibility which eventually leads to a family. Again he has to cater to inlaws and wife relatives, all of these he does without complaints. As this trend goes on he soon forgets about himself totally, he can not tell when last he wore new trousers or shoes. Meanwhile, he ensures that his wife has a new dress to wear often and his children too. Can a woman do this? Speaking at a women's conference organized by the women wing of my church on Sunday, I told them that it is baseless and meaningless for a woman to try competing with a man because she can not no matter how she tried. The shoulder of a man is built to carry a load that a woman can't, so there's no need trying to be.
Men are born givers, did I hear you say hmmm. Every man born into this world is born to be a giver irrespective of his position in life. This world revolves around giving and men are the pioneers of it. There is no man who is not a giver, every man gives daily for family needs to relatives and friends. Here some women can argue that not all men give, but that's not true. Charity they say begins at home, so every man is a giver first in his home before reaching out to others outside. If however, there are men who do not give to their households, know that such men are under the influence of a demon. Only a demon can make a man loses his sense of being. The life of a man is a life lived in giving, and this is what a man lives for.
Again I tell you the truth, the strength of a man can not be matched by a woman. This is not about psychic or bodybuilding, a man is born stronger than a woman. We are told to treat them as weaker vessels yet we hear what a man can do a woman can do better, with what strength I don't know. The only thing I know a woman can do better is talking and malice keeping. This is because the power of a woman is in her mouth. So no sensible man compete with a woman in talking because you will lose hands down.
Is there anything really that a woman can do better than a man, I doubt if any exist. Men are born leaders, is not something that they have to learn. No one teaches any man that he should take charge of his family, the leader nature in him urges him on. No matter the age once the need arises a man must act. This is the reason why a man must leave his father's house, to start his leadership adventure. We are not told that a woman has any reason to leave her father's house but we do know she will be married away to a man who left his father's house in search of a wife to lead. This is the underlying reason for the nature of leadership in the world.
Does the foregoing description in any way undermine the uniqueness of a woman? Not at all but to establish the fact that the saying 'what a man can do a woman can do better' is a statement that lacks sound footings. A woman is made uniquely to fulfill her assignment in her unique way. There is also the nature of a woman that a man can not travel and that's their strength.
Very nice
