Unfortunately,
in advance society such as nowadays women are still mistreated and considered
inferior and as a liability. Women in India still endure acts such as rape, acid throwing,
dowry killings, and the forced prostitution of young girls. Women from are very
young age have been expected to aspire to marriage, to make life choices
keeping in mind that marriage is most important and a vital priority, why do
we not teach boys the same thing? Women are often raised to see each other as
competitors not for jobs or accomplishment but for the attention of men.
As of the past, a couple of years, rape and sexual harassment is something that women face on a
daily basis, in fact, 24,923 rape cases were reported across India in 2012, and
these one are the one who was reported,
there must be several other rapes that happen that don’t get reported just to protect the reputation of the
family. So is the women really empowering? Why should women be fearful and
cautious when they step out onto the streets, why do women have to worry about
what they wear and how they act in public? Instead of teaching your daughter to
be appropriate when they are out in public why not teach our sons to BEHAVE
and to have respect to the people around them. Why do we praise the birth of a
son yet grieve the birth of a daughter? Why should women be oppressed and
looked down upon? Why is a woman who is out partying with her friends
considering a vulgar girl? Why women are denied the privilege of education?
Does anyone have an answer to these questions? Until any man or woman can come
up with a reasonable answer to any of these questions. We need to continue our
fight for women; we need to teach societies if a man can get an education so
can a woman. We need to realise the value of our mothers, daughter, sisters and
wives and biggest remedy to this situation is education, with the education we can
nourish the mind of this country, with education will come disciple and
respect. Education is not a privilege it is a right which every child in
India should have access to. Only the power of education can transform society’s
narrow and misogynist mind.
Some great examples
of successful woman are, Malala your fair, Pratibha Devisingh Patil, Hillary Clinton
, Chandana Kochar and our most recent ‘ the daughter of India’
In conclusion,
we must spread the word of feminism around India because the empowerment of
women will be the empowerment of the nation.
