I want to be a man so I can be more dominant and powerful, I have penis envy.
Unfortunately the world is still very sexist today. For example, I live with my bf, and for some reason the manager here put the electricity/trash bill in HIS name,
while it is ME who pays like 70% of the bills, I am the one who is in charge of the finaces, It should be in MY name, but oh no they assume just because he's a guy he must be the "head of household"
I went and told her straight that it should be in my name. Anyways, it's kinda weird for me to make payments on it if it's in someone else's name. Its also a respect thing, AT LEAST put in BOTH our names, not just HIS.
Because I'm a woman don't assume my boyfriend makes more than me (which he doesnt) and don't assume that he's the head of household (which he is not) everything is 50/50 around here!
People just really piss me the fuck off, I wish I was a man so I dont have to deal with this stupid bullshit.
They just ASSUMED that it should be in his name, and it made me LIVID. It's like a slap in the face when I'm the one paying for everything. AT least show me some fucken respect.

I hear ya. What I find interesting is that most women don't realize how much influence they have. You say that men have all the power but that's not exactly accurate. There are only a few men that have actual power that wasn't handed down to them. One thing they have in common is that they're usually tall (they will at least be 5'9") and either good looking or have an 'original' looking face. I used to work in a corporate environment and I never saw a short, ugly guy with any real power. This is where women come in. All men want pussy whether it's fantasy or real. With most guys that are 40+ just getting the attention of an attractive younger women is enough to hand out a promotion. I the one year before I quit my last job I say 3 women move into positions as sales reps and get promoted twice. That's twice apiece. Why? Because when they are sent to a customer they will as least get a meeting because the short fat guy that didn't go anywhere in the company is drooling to get any form of validation from a women. Man, you don't even have to flirt, have a degree, or even be overly intelligent. Just make eye contact with the right HR fag and you're set.
Wow, I'm not going to proof read that with is too bad since I know there's a lot of bullshit in there.

Forget what I just wrote, the key to succeeding in a male dominated world is to act with certainty and at the very least aggressively. Basically you have to act like a man, but since you have a pussy you've got an advantage that I don't.
I think I would be a good woman. I think I can be a role model.

I'm talking about respect in general life, not a corporate environment. For example when I walked into Bestbuy with my boyfriend, I was interested in making a purchase. But the salesperson addressed HIM and assumed that HE was the one buying something, when it was ME who was buying something. I was so livid I walked out of the store. If I'm a customer I expect to be treated with respect, I don't like people who assume things about me, like assume that I'm not the one who is buying, when I was, it's just terrible customer service.
Maybe I'm extra sensitive, but I'm feeling irritable and every little thing just gets on my nerves, I take everything really seriously. Every little "slight" like that really irritates me.
Also this is completely unrelated but on the Forbest billionaires list, it was mostly all men, all the women had inheritances. A lot of men had inheritances too, but it seems like more men were self-made, there were only a few self-made women like Martha or Oprah.
I think the world is a much better place for a man. Their not held up to double standards, they can fuck as much as they want and hire hookers and escorts and do everything. Women are always labelled "sluts" and "whores" even when their not that promiscuous.
Maybe like you said women will have an advantage in sales or whatever, but NOT in high positions like CEO's for huge companies where they are pulling in millions in stock options and so forth. That doesn't happen very often. Women have to settle for being promoted in sales, yea I guess they have to settle for "sales", but what about becoming the CEO??

Men have a name for women who are agressive, its called a "bitch."
That's how men look at women who are agressive.
If a man is agressive he is "powerful". If its a woman she's a "bitch".

You've made a good point there, I didn't think it all the way. While an attractive woman in a corporate environment has a better opportunity to advance than her attractive/unattractive counterparts there is a limit to which she till succeed. The best recent example is Carly Fiorina. As head of one of the largest corporations in the world she was paid far lower than ANY of her male counterparts and when there was one bad decision on her part then they turfed her.
In everyday life I can't speak to what you go through since (I'm assuming you're American) we live in different cultures. What I can say is that I noticed there is a far stronger religious segment in your country which seems to translate to an adherance to traditional values/roles. You don't see what you described much in Canada but I will point out that as a Canadian woman you can expect to make less and hold a lower position than you're American counterpart.
Wow, I'm doing way too much typing. I'm going to get a beer.
