Last week, Twitter was divided over how to treat the female gender when they are undergoing diverse mood swings prompted by hormonal changes or otherwise.
Here’s my view:
Fact #1.
Humans are very powerful beings and there’s no mood or instinct or feeling or emotion that a human has no control over, he hasn’t just found enough reason to control it.
Fact #2
Men have mood swings and emotions too, the only difference is that society has made the boy child feel absolutely responsible for how he behaves regardless of how he feels. That’s why you hear: men don’t cry even when he’s emotionally down. That’s him working against his emotions because he found a reason to do so.
Fact #3
There’s no denying the fact that females feel differently at different periods. That it is there means they have a responsibility over it, both to express it, receive care, put it in moderation and control it. For instance, you can’t say you don’t feel lively and allow sadness and depression to take you over. Let’s forget about your partner but talk about what is even good for you as a person.
Fact #4
You can’t hand over the keys of your life to emotions or mood swings. Otherwise, you will be sad, cranky and down for most of your life. Imagine waking up feeling sad and deciding to stay in bed instead of jumping up to work. The question is, will a female employer take that excuse from a female employee? You need to consider your happiness and the comfort of those around you especially those who care.
Fact #5
The emotions or feelings you give voice or excuses to grow, the ones you apply reasoning to are kept in moderation. Take for instance a young lady that got pregnant as a result of premarital sex with no one to care for her except her parents. She will have zero cravings and no mood swings. Even if they come, she will control it. That tells you these things are in the man’s power to control. Put the same young girl in the hands of a caring husband then all the emotions, cravings and mood swings will grow wings and limbs.
Fact #6
Humans always wanted more. The more expressions of our feelings we receive, the more we want to demand. You see people with same-sex orientation claim it is their biological make-up and they don’t have control over it. Some said they have cravings towards animals and recently some said they are biologically paedophiles and there is nothing they can do about it. Those feelings are pampered not because they are right but because they feel it is in their right to express it.
Fact #7
I am an advocate of showing care and being sensitive to how your partner feels. I also lavish my wife with the same. I believe if a woman cannot act as a woman then she’s an unhappy woman. I also believe that THE BIGGEST EMOTIONAL PRISON YOU CAN PUT YOURSELF in IS TO SAY, I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER MY EMOTIONS OR MOODS, YOU HAVE JUST NOT FOUND A REASON TO KEEP IT IN MODERATION
