Still better than it was

I found nice music for healing pain...but now machines are noisily ripping up the street outside again, interfering with everything...I still play it...I would like to buy noise canceling headphones but they are so expensive...

Imagine any successful man suddenly afflicted with a womanly health problem in today's society. Presto, he's not there anymore.

He no longer has the same worth or value in the culture which gave him a voice and a paycheck.

Men value him less, and many women do also, for a number of reasons.

Inequality happens when both men and women internalize and inflict sexism on themselves and on each other and then continue to be in denial about their doing so.

So-called tough men are  scared of being "wusses" and certain women accomodate them and ignore their sisters.

They have been trained to devalue other women and prop up fragile male egos, just as those men were socialized it's bad to be like a woman.

If the noise on the street were not here to interfere so much, would I have to write this?
