Is Chivalry Dead —– One man’s hope for the future …. by Len
Is chivalry dead.
As fair maidens venture forth, searching for the Holy Grail of gender equality.
Is chivalry dead.
As women storm the bastions of male power and aggression.
Is chivalry dead.
As women shield themselves from sexual predators
Is chivalry dead.
As women armour themselves against servitude in foreign lands.
Is chivalry dead.
No.
Chivalry is alive.
Turned into mutual respect.
The battle is not yet won.
But the tide has turned.
Men and women marching together.
Under one flag.
Today, March 8, is International Woman’s Day. This is one mans hope for the future.
The Awakening …… by Sadje #Keep it alive

As I wanted to write a post about woman of today, for the international women’s day, 8th March, this gives me an ideal opportunity to do so. Thanks Reena.
She is subjugated, imposed upon and discriminated against. But a woman is still the strongest being in all the races that reside here on the planet earth.
She is now growing in strength. Maturing in thought of how to defend herself from the abuse and harassment that has been meted out to her since times immemorial.
The wife, the mother…

You won’t be able to use all those fancy products, if they are not tested on me. I put my life and limb to out to help you. I’m an extension of your hand, when you navigate that space you can’t live without. I think you call it the internet. I don’t find it very … Continue reading Due credit
I see the rawness of your base instincts splashed all over – in homes, relationships, streets and respectable institutions. I have subjugated myself to suit your needs because I was misguided about my status in different equations. Bestiality is ingrained in you, because nobody told you it is criminal, and a backlash is possible. I … Continue reading Accept your guilt
The poem that came tumbling out, but hits with its sharpness and carries us with the flow …. by Jade (msjadeli)
Reena likes to delve deep with her Exploration Challenges. Reena says:
Yes, you got it right. [Women are] about half of the world’s population. How do you view it? Are we really walking together with the other half, or just resisting/battling/complementing each other?
PROMPT
Woman – Her Journey
WOMAN, doing your best to stay one step ahead of men, whatever it takes.
Buying into a sick, materialistic system because wealth protects.
Men think twice about raping a rich woman.
WOMAN, using what you have that men want, to stay alive.
Batting your eyelashes; opening your legs and mouth
to keep from being thrown on the street like a piece of refuse.
WOMAN, teaching your boys to be strong…

It is about half of … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge – 77
