We teach our daugters to be like our sons, when will we start teaching our sons to be like daughters ?
Day 1 of my campaign , learned a very important lesson. What ever be the circumstances you are in , what ever be the difficulties you face . This is a “Man’s World” and don’t expects your brother’s or uncle’s to even empathize with you. Lucky if your dad still talks to you. ( Am blessed that way) Be prepared to face the biggest opposition from your dear and near. Because we are taught , groomed and brought up to be submissive. The moment you raise your voice , you are a perceived as a threat to the society. You are labeled as a feminist.
Feminism is the belief that women should have equal political, social, sexual, intellectual and economic rights to men. But the way we Indians look at it is very different. For us Feminist is the one who breaks families and lives life for herself. The Selfish , evil side of woman. How strange ?? Is defending yourself or speaking for your sister an evil ? We teach our daugters to be like our sons, when will we start teaching our sons to be like daughters ?
Daughters are taught respect and tolerance, to be obedient and loyal. We also trained them to be brave and educated and be independent. Sons are groomed to hammer a nail or drill a straight hole, things like boxing, shooting, cigars,car/bike maintenance etc., We moms should teach them “empathy” & “compassion” , "Kindness" and "consideration" . Most important," to cry when they are hurt and when they hurt others". And a day would come when a Girl will thank you from the bottom of her heart !!!
We can only hope for a better tomorrow. Let join hands and Pray for it.
