Perception

I have a friend who often makes comments about how oppressed women are by men. For example, she recently stated that the whole Viagra/Cialis/etc industry is about men dominating women. Which I found interesting because I had always thought of it as an industry whose very existence is to make women happy, After all I remember Elisabeth Dole, the wife of former senator and presidential candidate Bob Dole, and head of the American Red Cross response to her husband appearing in advertisements promoting Viagra.

The funny thing to me is that my friend, who is on her third marriage, is completely dependent on her husband both financially and in life. She doesn't even drive because, well she doesn't have to as her husband can do that for her. 

Everyone perceives reality in their own way.
