Si Eba ay hinugot mula sa tadyang ni Adan. Does this mean that men are greater than female??? I actually heard someone said na ang babae ay ginawa para pagsilbihan ang mga lalaki. NO WAY!!! Lumpo ba sila o tamad lang talaga? Hehehe!
Marami rin naman sigurong situations na nag-dominate ang mga kalalakihan. Katulad ng pagkakaroon ng mas higit at mas magaling na presidente sa ating bansa. Ang mas maraming pinagbibidahang super hero movies at ang matapang na pagharap sa circumcision. Hahaha! Sige na, kayo na! But you know, behind every man's success is a woman.:)
Uhmm.. teka bakit ko nga ba sinasabi 'to? 'Coz I wanted to share with you my unforgettable experience...an eye-opener perhaps.
And here it is...
During a job interview I wonder why "Tell me something about yourself" is not the very first question I encountered. All preparations for that question fell into pieces. Sayang ang mga malalalim na words na sinearch ko pa over google. Hehehe!
And the question is???... drum roll please!... "Why did you choose this course?"... Then I started thinking, bakit nga ba? From that time I felt like a missing jigsaw puzzle piece, naligaw at nahalo sa ibang pieces na hindi ko kauri. Hahaha! Naramdaman ko ang init ng spotlight na nanunuot sa aking balat. Then I started saying, "..because...uhmm..". At umepal na naman si HR, "I mean, no offense to you but this course is much fitted for males. Honestly, we prefer male for IT positions rather than female." This statement triggered me to feel for my fellow females, umiral ang aking pagiging feminism. And I said, "Mam, I strongly believe that the capability of a person can never be measured by his or her gender. Whatever it is that's in here(pointing to the head) can be greater than or equal to that of male."
Clap! Clap! Clap! I've seen my audience clapping, standing and crying... "And the winner for Binibining Pilipinas Ms. Universe 2011 is.... Sham...sorry, sorry.. Ruby dela Cruz!!!"
Thank you! Thank you! It is such an honor to represent our country in Ms Universe 2011. I shall wear this crown proudly as I present to the Universe what true beauty means.
Hahaha! Ok, enough of the daydreaming. Back to the story...
Honestly, di ko nasabi yung mga yun dahil bigla nang nagsalita si HR, at sinabi nya...
HR: Uhmm... ok lang ba sayo kung sa ibang position kita ilagay?
Me: Sige po, ok lang po... (with a very disappointing voice)
HR: Pero titignan ko pa rin kung san kita pwedeng ilagay, yung kahit papano related sa course mo.
Me: Ok po...(with a very disappointing voice na naman)
HR: We'll give you a call or text message ok. Thank you!
Me: Thank you po... (tinatamad voice)
From this experience I realized, no matter what I do or no matter what I say doesn't really matter at all. Ang baba pa rin ng pagtingin sa mga babae. Whatever happened to Princess Diana, to Mother Theresa, to Cory Aquino?! Tsk! Tsk! Lahat sila patay na! Hahaha! But they died with honor... and they left a mark thats needs to be painted all over the world. Women domination! I'm not saying that we should do what they have done but at least stand up with our heads facing up.
So let's make that Male=Female, alright?!:)
