It's all a matter of
experience. Being forced to grow up too soon, enduring
painful times, all of it promotes development of maturity.
Male or
female, whatever the race, maturity is
relative. Obviously if one is sheltered in life, they will be less
mature if they haven't seen the true
nature of it. So I firmly believe that maturity is not something that is primarily in males or females, thus not a valid judgement in relation to the
equality of men and women.
Loyalty. I've seen loyalty in men and woman, and lack of it as well. I've seen men cheat on women, I've seen women cheat on men. I've seen men ditch their friends for a woman, and women ditch theirs for men. Every one of my close friends has stood by me through thick and thin, that's what true
friendship is about - loyalty. Friendship is not a determining factor in relation to the equality of men and women. I have male friends and female friends and they really aren't that different in how they treat our friendships. I don't think one sex is better then the other in regards to friendship.
Humor can be found in men and women, it may be different, but
amusement is amusement. Some people are more
serious then others, there is nothing wrong with that. Some are more
sarcastic then others, big deal. Some have
wit, and some are
cheesy, some are
sexist and some are
dry.
Everything is relative in comparing men and women. There are no set
boundaries, as much as people wish to
judge things as such.
Balance. Balance
the self, relate to the
opposite sex, instead of constantly finding differences. You might learn something about your self.
