A CRY FROM A TEENAGE PREGNANT GIRL



It sometimes angered me the way the society discriminate against women or girls.  A teenage girl become pregnant and we don't bother to ask for the male partner but just judge the girl  even though we know that pregnancy is an act between two people.  Why discriminate to an extend of expelling the teenage girl out of school yet the other male partner has to continue with his education? Is there justice when one gender suffers more than the other??? Yes I agree that sometimes we both have abused our rights as a member of a given society but why is it only too harsh on my gender?? Where did I go wrong when I only made my first cry into the world and found myself as a woman. Why do I have to explain myself to everyone while the male gender is left alone and being given praises that he has proven to be a man.  Why give such praises to the boy and come back and insult the girl?? We want to be ourselves so judge us equally coz we all (girl and boy) participated for my pregnancy. If a girl is abused let's also abuse male counter part and if he is praised then let the girl also be showered with lots of praises since we, two, are all responsible for our action and not my female gender alone. Non disciminative society  against women should begin with a single member of the society and that is me or you.
