War on Women

Men have to grow up and change. I am a father of two sons and have a beautiful wife and daughter in law. I teach high school and worry about all of my female students as they go off to college. I need to work on teaching men how to act and behave with women. There needs to be a discussion and talk about what is acceptable and what is not. Our men should not... 1) treat women as an object, as something they own 2) think they deserve sex, date or phone number for talking 3) pressure women for dates, phone number or information 4) force themselves on women-no does mean no 5) cat call, yell out and comment about a woman's dress 6) whistle, make noises-grunts 7) stare at women, watch, make faces 8) follow women, look up online, watch..stalk women 9) women can make decisions-let them 10) kill or hurt a woman if they break up, or divorce or move out 11) get woman drunk or give drugs for sex 12) hit, abuse, strike or injure a woman physically or emotionally 13) put women down, call them names, belittle them 14) have dual standards-treat women like men 15) slut shaming-women are people with feelings- Men should do the following: 1) treat women as equals 2) Ask women what they think and respect ideas 3) speak up when men are disrepectful 4) help a woman when she is drunk or drugged 5) listen to women and what they say..no means no 6) treat any woman like you would treat your daughter 7) let a woman go if she wants a divorce or to break up 8) look at the woman in the eyes, face, not her body 9) know the woman has talents, ideas, skills not just is a body or looks 10) be an example for your children and other men Being a male, there can be so many more items. I reviewed #yesallwomen and learned alot. I will review these and see how I am doing. Men need to listen to women, learn from them. See what they are experiencing from men. It is scary. We need to be observant. Add more ideas, comment and put them on. I will add to the list. 11)
