Equality in education...my take!


Rousseau writes in Emile that education for women should be only to teach about her future role as a wife.. earlier this would have made me so mad that id go back in time and make noise about it. But the recent events or not so recent events of families breaking and the culture of men abandoning their families has got me thinking. Maybe such education was not so bad what they failed to realize was that they made the woman so efficient in her work and responsibilities that change was inevitable. That is she knew what was expected of her and how to do it but the man was left to join in a union to which his role was unclear and even worse he had no clue how to go about it. Since they were trained as doctors they became very good doctors but no one trained them to be husbands, this was expected to be innate, remember this was the same period that rousseau and locke argued against innate knowledge that knowledge was acquired thro the senses, now them expecting men to just somehow know without the experiences being transfer to their minds wouldn’t u call that abit hypocritical and naive. I propose educational dimension which caters for family education for all parties involved. For the term wife only exist if the husband exist, without which wife does not exist. For a woman to be a wife she must have a husband, it does not exist in solitary and therefore should not be treated as such. Men continuously fail in families for they are made  to see themselves as separate to the day to day running of the household, yet in reality the household cannot exist without the concerned parties. How stupid it is to say that women spend a lot of money on household things yet you as the man expects clean clothes and food and a carpet and all that a house should have…..at zero cost. Some husbands are good managers of companies because they see themselves as part of the organisation and needed, but the house is seen not part of what they need to apply themselves in its running…so stupid, seriously. Simply because it takes a man a minute to reproduce and a woman 9months to bring it to fruition bringing pleasure to one and pain to another..scientist say that during birth the woman feels…pain equal to 20 bones crashing simultaneously…anyone for equality haha say for each child born the father breaks atleast 10 bones..howz that for family planning.!!! Oh sorry I meant equality!
