Image of a Woman in the eyes of Aristotle


Aristotle(384 BC-322 BC)
Aristotle ,a great thinker, philosopher, scientist and inventor of logic got wrong having problems with women .In his opinion Women being endowed with irrationality, weakness, passivity, and imperfection, were not capable of abstract reasoning and were bound to the domestic sphere. women ,he believed differed physically and mentally, saw them as subject to men. They have fewer teeth, were more impulsive, more compassionate, more complaining, more opinionated, more jealous ,more deceptive, more easily move to tears, more mischievous and more retentive of memory, garrulous, more prone to despondency more apt to scold and to strike. I differ with him as I'm a feminist and he was a misogynist. To be fair to the fair sex, Bottom line is that you either have 28 to 32 teeth regardless of if you are a man or woman, women are equally mentally tough although women tend to be more resilient and men more confident .women may not be equal to men in terms of strength ,but are equal to men in terms of rational and occupational capacity ,she is a 'Fair Sex' and a 'better-half'! To be fair to Aristotle and in lighter vein, I'm inclined to agree with him about the rest of his opinion about women!

Now I learnt that both my favorites are somehow related to the cow! Surprised? I share my research  with you, as follows :- ladybugs/ lady birds called "God's cows" in some languages (such as Russian, French, Hebrew, etc.) The creature beloved in many countries. In Russian, we call it “God’s cow”. Yep, something like this. Ladybugs smell with their feet and antennae. The farmers began to call the Ladybugs “the Beetles of Our Lady” and eventually they were known as Lady Beetles. The Ladybug's red wings are said to represent the Virgin's cloak and the black spots her joys and sorrows. The Ladybug is widely...
