I do not understand why I can't find any support or others like me. But I am a young woman and I cannot survive as such in the misogynistic atmosphere that society created and perpetuates. I cannot live and love as a woman. I do not wish to be a man. I do not suffer from "penis envy". I don't want this thing or these parts when all around me are images encouraging others to ogle at said parts while at the same time coercing me to show more. I can't turn on a tv without a woman being with child or in servitude (domestically, sexually, etc) or simply inferior. It is sickening. These images have been so steadily absorbed and thoroughly metastasized in society that they have become acceptable norms to men and sheepish women alike. Do all women breed so easily? Do all give their bodies and futures so readily? Moreover, from what I have read from sites as these, a good deal of us can't even explain what our own bodies do! Hell, neither can modern medicine. But there is no initiative or incentive to muster the slightest effort, interest, or protest of these blatant societal shortcomings. I want to opt out of my sex entirely.

Am I alone??

don't take this wrong, but you need help! you can't figure out this world by yourself. It, "the world" doesn't make sense sometimes. you need to talk this over with a skilled professional, be it mental health provider or a broad-minded pastor or rabbi. just my opinion.

I don't see how she needs help, in fact I agree with many things she said. It is hard to be a woman these days. We are so oversexualized it is not even funny. And what is conveyed on TV seems to be what every man wants, you know, the thin, sultry, scantily clad, large breasted, full lipped, doe eyed type. Yeah, I hear you there. However, I did not find my pregnancies "servitude". I had a bit of envy that I had to be the one resembling a watermelon and I had to be the one to push the wet Saint Bernard through the kitty door, but I certainly did not feel inferior to my husband during those times. I don't feel inferior to him while I am cooking either, because, man, my man CAN COOK. And he does often. And if I am cooking, he is sweeping or mopping. The only thing I cannot get him to do is clean the restrooms. However, he will never get me to wash dishes (the thought of soggy food makes me so squeamish) or load them in the dishwasher (back to soggy food). So it is a good tradeoff.
I agree that we are often portrayed in a demeaning manner (as far as sex goes), but we are no longer looked at as the barefoot-and-pregnant-in-the-kitchen type we used to be. Society as a whole will never be perfect, and there will always be stereotypes.
