My short story that I'm in the process of finishing is about a mean husband that pushes around his wife, until she gets fed up. This would be categorized as "fighting the monster." I chose to write this short story because I believe that there are many women in this world that get treated poorly.
Women are downgraded everyday. Men think they are so much better than us women and that is really not the case. There may be somethings that men say they'll always be better at, but likewise with us.
Women who are treated poorly need to stand up for themselves and quit letting men push them around, just because that's how it has always been. I don't care how it used to be or what you're used to, stand up for yourself!
Someone in my family influenced me to write this. My grandma is the nicest, most giving person you will ever meet, but since she is used to being treated poorly and demanded around, this is all she knows (this was very common with her generation). One day all of these men who think they are oh so dominant will be over-powered, just wait.
