It's International Women's day, again. Again we are gather to show how we are considerate towards the equality of sexes. In a country where cases of sexual harassment, physical abuse , dowry is a major issue for women, International women's day seems to be a distant dream.
According to recent statistics feminism is one of the most popular words in world. The number of searches for the word feminism has increased by 70% in the past year. Merriam Webster defines feminism as the theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes. As we have seen many complains from guys saying that women play the card of feminism in the name of equality. I agree to that personally. Some women do. But again, just because a group of women who play that card ruined the sense of equality, doesn't mean all women are like that. Moreover, the women who does that actually are being over protective of themselves. Most of them are just too scared of being walked over by the patriarchal society that exists. For them it's like an instinct.
I've also heard conversations like why do women get a separate compartment in trains. I believe that simply because GUYS STICK TO WOMEN AND THAT'S IRRITATING FOR THE WOMEN AND IT'S EMBARRASSING AS WELL.
To sum up, I would say equal rights is like a perfect situation, an ideal state. It can't never be achieve. But let's take an oath today that we, irrespective of our would strive to behave equally and provide both sexes equal opportunities in every part of our life. I personally believe, stringent laws, monitoring of work place safety, proper sex education can pave a way for better future.
