words, seemingly have a harder time and struggles with more weight
in the 1970’s, there is that outdated perspective for the women that
they should be controlled and need supervision, being marked with the
concept that they are vulnerable and fragile. This poem stereotypes
and categorizes men and women into their own lanes, that the world is
truly lessens the value of what women goes through everyday and just
opens up that the men have it harder, which is obviously not true,
especially considering at this day and age that there are no other tasks
that have more weight than the other, rather we do not look at it
Compared to the previous poem, this now mocks the hardship men
did not change any of the struggles of women, rather they added two
more lines about them and something that strikes me is the fact that it

of life for men, which is caused by the efforts of their counterparts, and
puts them to waste by enjoying it without any sort of consolation for the
men is put to shame and perfect for allowing the men to realize how
much all of their benefits and rewards are given because of women.

the sense to give back what they receive for the women, and let them

themselves and obtain their place among the men as well, not under
them, but as an equal. This would allow us, men specifically, how we
women too can also do what other men do, and sometimes even
better, and that is okay. While some men may be threatened, I think it
is considerably safe to say that even men who are in the workplace
gives them equal footing, knowing that gender does not define the
status and the privilege of a person, but merely the show of their skills
regardless of gender.

not only men we acknowledge that goes through the day and finishes
the day famished, fatigued, and needing a rest. Many of the women
today are even the majority of a working body, making up most of the
Something that I would like to change that is different from the take of
Bonino’s team is how the mockery of the men can be toned down,
such a way that does not discourage them, but rather allow them to
see for themselves the struggles of the woman and how we, the
support and a helping hand, if they need one. The important thing we
can emphasize on that is that they now have a choice, and that choice
is up for them, and up for the men, on what they want to do moving
ourselves by stepping down and letting women feel the spotlight, and
for us not to feel what they had to feel, not to pity, not to look down on
them, but to encourage and strengthen them, helping them realize they
