Labeling women as ācrazyā is a way of controlling them. It may not be something planned or pre-meditated, but the ease with which men call women ācrazyā says a lot about them. Calling a woman ācrazyā is quick and easy shut-down to any discussion. Once the ācrazyā card has been pulled out, women are now put on the defensive: the onus is no longer on the man to address her concerns or her issue, itās on her to justify her behavior, to prove that she is not, in fact, crazy or irrational. Men donāt even have to provide any sort of argument back ā itās a classic catch-22; āthe fact that you donāt even see that youāre acting crazy is just proof that itās crazy.ā
