Today is mothersday, atleast in some countries. Actually most countries that celebrates mothersday do it today, other countries, such as Sweden celebrates it may 30th (last sunday in may). We always have to be so damn special, whats wrong with celebrating the same day as everyone else?
Mothersday never really made sense to me though. I never had a mother really, I had some woman giving birth to me 30 something years ago, but thats it.
Aside from that, it still doesnt make sense to me. Has it gone that far that we need to dedicate a specific day for us to be nice to our mothers, and the mothers of our children? Aren't we supposed to be nice to them every day? Or is this some pathetic way for us to make up for all the bad stuff we've done the past year, and now we think it will all be forgotten because we bring them flowers today?
It really dont make sense at all.
"I know I have been a jerk to you the past year or so, and to make it up to you I bought these flowers for you. They costed me like 5 bucks. We good now?"
Do we really think that women are that stupid? That all it takes is to buy flowers once per year and everything will be forgotten and forgiven?
If I were a woman I would be insulted to have a day dedicated to me because I'm a mother.
Not long ago though we also had the international womens day. So women have this:
* Mother's day
* Birthday
* International womens day
* Anniversary (although I'm not really sure why this day is considered to be the womens, I'm pretty sure they didnt get married alone)
And thats it? We only have to be nice to our women 4 days per year? Who the hell came up with this anyway?
On the other hand, what do we men have?
* Father's day
* Birthday
Not only does men only have 2 days, opposed to womens 4 days. But all women knows how to make their man happy, we're not that complicated. Hint: It has to do with happy endings, and I'm not talking about movies now.
Making a woman happy is alot worse. You wanna give her something, but if its too cheap you have shown her that she isnt worth that much to you. But if its too expensive, she'll think that you did something bad and trying to make up for it.
I think we should just all vote to remove these womens/mens days. And just be nice to each other everyday.
I think most men would think of it as a fair trade off to get a happy ending every night in exchange for buying flowers everyday.
