On women’s day!
Let’s
see and boy’s life. He reads – many times just an average student in school. Yet,
he is ‘squeezed’ into professional college and he passes out – many times with ‘papers
kept pending to be cleared’ till last semester. Yet, he is applauded.!
He
gets a job. Comes home and slips into sofa. Eats dinner and sleeps. He gets
married. He goes to office, comes home,
slips into sofa. Eats dinner and sleeps. He is ‘good husband’.
But,
if a girl comes from office and slips into sofa and expects anyone to get her
tea and dinner, she is too demanding and unwomanly. She is ‘bad wife’.
This
woman’s day – let’s look into this gender bias. Let’s look at it from ‘human
view’. Why is woman expected to leave her (even if be Govt. job) job to adjust
to her husband’s career? And even after doing that she is not ‘given her due’. Why?
Whose fault is this? If she earns, she has to be ‘telling all her expenses and
earnings’ to her husband and family. Why? And if she earns not, she is
worthless – why?
Let’s
look at our belief systems. Woman – change the way you look at other woman. Why
do you forget that your d-i-l is also a woman like you?
Let’s
not beget sons and feel proud of it!? Let’s teach them to share household
chores. That doesn’t make them ‘good’. That makes them sensible and sensitive
humans. They are being responsible for themselves. That doesn’t mean they are
good. Woman when she does both jobs, why she is not given ‘good’ status
automatically? Why is she judged for not keeping her home clean? For not
washing dishes and folding clothes? Think, think again!!!Let’s
teach our sons to be partners to their wives. Let’s not hear the same complain
from our daughter-in-laws that we have with our mother-in-laws on the
upbringing of sons?!!Let’s
bring them up right!!
Let's be more responsible while bringing up our 'sons'!!!
