24 Lies People Like To Tell Women [View all]

I want to get this list printed on a poster.

http://thoughtcatalog.com/2013/24-lies-people-like-to-tell-women/

1. There is such a thing as a “real” woman and she is defined by “having curves,” which is not to be confused with “being fat,” and if you fall too far outside of that particular bell curve, you do not count as a “real” woman.

5. There is a direct correlation between the kind of clothes you wear and the amount of respect you deserve.

19. As a woman, the question you should be asking yourself as you enter your career is unquestionably “How do I have it all?” The underlying assumption is always that you want both a family life and a career, lest you be considered lazy or immature on either front.

24. If you are a take-charge person who is hard-working and demanding of others the way many men who are deeply respected in business might be, you are a bitch. And that is that.
