I shouldn’t have been a boy



If the God gives me one more time, let me choosing my gender by my self, I would have chose female. Although as a man I have a lot of physical advantages, we also afford so many liabilities. As man I have more powerful muscle, but I must do much more heavy dirty jobs, such as carrying heavy materials, doing the dirty work, taking high pressure job.
  I have already had one job. When the office had any labor work, I should volunteer to do it. Otherwise other lady colleagues would look down me, and thought I wasn’t gentlemen. Although sometimes I was very busy with my hand work, I must stop it and be a volunteer. Sometimes I ask my self, “Why should men always hold the door for the women? Just because am I man?” I usually listen to, “Women should be equal with men.” “Why could women open the door by themselves? Couldn’t they have enough power to open the door?” I thought. Someone told me that holding the door for the girl just was a good manner of etiquette. Man just wants to make up to girl. May by it’s not a big deal. However, the average life age of men is lower than women. One main reason is because men take lot of heavy labor work, and they also take more metal pressure than women. In my country China, men should work hard and earn more money to support the family, but women only need to care children and do some house work. As I know, Japan men take more pressure than China men, so there more suicides in Japan. Although Japanese has a very bad suicide habit, men suicide rate is higher than women.
 Admittedly men can easily find job, some job actually is very bad for taking. Men take more outside jobs under the sun, because their family is waiting for them a lot of money to feed them. Men heave to find job as soon as possible, so they don’t have enough time to wait or choose good job. On the contrary, women usually work as teacher, nurse, sale, reception, etc. Although these jobs’ salary is not much high, women take these decent works and enjoy life. They pay more attention on how to keep them young and beautiful.
 So if I can choose my gender, I would be a girl.

  1. Interesting post - I guess there is a lot of pressure on men as well to act in a certain way. For example, it's considered normal for a mother to stay at home for a few years to watch the children, but if a father wants to do it, it's still considered a little strange.

    Corrections:
