Gender Equality

We live in a world where a boy dating many girls is a Casanova, but a girl doing the same is slut,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

We live in a world where a mother gets a full quarter of paid maternity leave, but paternity leaves don't go beyond a week,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

We live in a world where a girl is denied higher education, and a boy is pushed into it,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

We live in a world where a husband hitting his wife is a crime, but a wife hitting her  husband is a WhatsApp joke,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

He wants a fair, slim, 'homely' wife. But himself is fat, can't cook , won't cook guy,
Yes, he also talks of gender equality.

She wants a tall, seven figure salaried, well settled (not with in-laws) guy. But herself earns in five figures, can't cook, won't cook girl,
Yes, she also wants gender equality.

We live in a world where a guy moving up in office is either talented or a chamcha, but a girl moving up, is definitely sleeping with boss,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

We live in a world which constantly reminds of a mother's great sacrifice in nurturing you, but never mentions that silent father, who always kept your fancy dress above his worn out shoes,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

We live in a world where a fifty year old unmarried actor is still the most eligible bachelor, but a 40 something unmarried actress is a sad story,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

We live in a world where a woman doing a job and also taking care of house is deemed a super-woman, but a man doing the same is just doing his duty,
Yet we dream of gender equality.

Poor and cheap Hindi

A thought just crossed my mind, there were some swearing I got to hear from some girls around me...
'What the fuck is goin on' .....'kiss my ass'.... 'What ?? 20 rs for this, fuck you'....'oh shit'...'screw u'...'Oh god her ass/boob cleavage was visible'....'dude u need fucking balls to do so'...and some more stuff like this

Ok so why I am writing this...now do one thing...most of these words are slangs....so say(or atleast think) the same things using their analogous Hindi slangs...This is how boys(and some gals) say..so how it sounds...cheap?? dirty?? ghatiya ladka???...and this is my problem..why same thing, when said in Hindi becomes cheap or vulgar and in English it becomes cool, hip hop or ok ok???

Feminism or pseudo of it..

Recently many things I saw and I felt prompted me to write this. Feminism, the word literally means "A doctrine that advocates equal rights for women", this is something we should term as the need of the hour, thanks to the age old practices of our self appointed social pundits. Infact knowledge of history will tell you that treating women as unequal, was not a practice confined to SAARC nations only, it was rampant across the globe. For examples women were not allowed to compete in many events of Olympics like 400 mts 10000 mts race etc. The list is quite long enough to tell that why feminism is the need of hour. But I don't intend to advocate for it further as we have enough people to do it.
Actually there is a question in my mind which I feel hard to answer, does being feminist means being a men hater. I thing the focus now, is not on standing equal to men, but on standing against them, its merely a manifestation of hate, an extension of eye for an eye theory. "We are better" "we don't need you, you need us" sort of slogans are in vogue. Isn't it kinda funny?? Some centuries ago men must have thought the same way, and created an unequal world, which the creator himself never did.
The idea being propagated is women are all good and men are all bastards... How illogical?? The argument is that if its women, she was forced into this and men, they are all born rascals and criminals they can't be forced into anything. This thought process is very dangerous since now its taking legal shape, and some people are making full use of this disparity. Punishment for crime against women must be more harsh, but the judgment should be unbiased, without any assumptions and everyone must get equal chance to put his/her point. Talking of legal aspects, the government should pass the women reservation bill to give equal representation to women. Sadly the much deserved bill is bouncing like football in the corners of our parliament, and even if it is passed what is the guarantee that its benefits will not confine to wives and daughters of existing men leaders only resulting in a pseudo feminist parliament. Also what is the guarantee that all these women will usher a corruption free era in our nation?? All we have is an illogical belief that women parliamentarians will be corruption free and nationalists, unlike their men counterparts, how easily we ignore the examples of jayalalita(alleged for million rs corruption charges), Indira gandhi(alleged for imposing 10 years emergency) mayawati(countless scams), Rabri devi (has bihar changed??) and many more..
One more aspect of this feminism, being modern wave is "glamour", a word which is often used to sophisticate and justify nudity and shamelessness. No, I am not saying that girls should wear burka, they should wear what they are comfortable in, be it shorts, jeans whatever, but more than often , the underlying idea of dress up is to show off or 'reveal' and not comfort. Even the media is emphasizing on the 'glamour' part of women, thats why you see rakhi sawant more in news rather than nafisa ali..Girls now take proud to be a sex kitten and hate the idea of admitting it. The drive towards modernization and the urge to be like west have brought us to a dire status, where we have forgotten who we are and what is our own entity. What else you think causes lakhs and lakhs of unwanted pregnancy cases among teens, in Delhi alone, and the study also shows mostly its mutual consent and prevalent in educated class. The idea of 'being bold' now implies to be being cloths free, being bold according to me is standing up to your point, standing for your career, even if it is against standing against your own family, standing against disparity in society, standing for your likings your love..Women are not only pretty, but they are intelligent, strong and daring too,they are something more than the 'glamour' part. Its time we understand feminism in its true sense and demand right things for right people and give it to them.
