I
was turning pages of a news paper. Suddenly
my eyes were stuck on a blog written by a Bombay based celebrated
women and secular activist..
After
reading the blog i thought for some time... what these writers wants
to show or achieve by writing this type of negative things.
The
gist of the blog was, "India is a nation of idiots, rapist and
full of uncivilized men. The
whole of India is unsafe for women.
According
to today's media all Indian men are potential rapist.
i
Guess we are becoming a society of hypocritical people. I am not
talkink about any single article or writer. It
is becoming a fashion these days to generalize any particular
instance.
yes..
I know. Our sisters and mothers need to be safe guarded and
protected. And any one doing
mischief with them needs to be punished brutally with out any mercy.
but this is also not justifiable if you look at every men with a
doubtful eye, as if we are demons.
Let
me clarify some accusation by the media about me and my nation.
1st
Accusation : India is a degrading place for Women
My
Stand : No.India
is not a degrading or dangerous place for women. we respect women
with highest order. From centuries, India is the only place on earth
where women's worshiped as god. No other major religion or society
worship women as deity.
We
in India worship saraswati as a source of knowledge and MAA shakti as
destroyer of evil. we consider our daughters as laxmi.
I am not denying the fact that, Violence against women is there in our society but you can not blame the whole gender for this.
2nd Accusation : All Men are potential rapist.
Blame an individual not all. Do not generalize the whole gender. The impact of these type of propaganda is, all women looks at men as if they are the demons or Fox. Due to this, trust deficit is growing in society. which is certainly not good for a developing nation.
A men can be a good friend or a teacher, a helping Auto Driver, a good police officer, or a uncle or a even can be a good lover..
Yes. I agree, our society has enough individual men with psychiatric disorder and they are threat to our whole society not just to women. But at the same time this is not true also that all men are rapist.
3rd Accusation:Violence against Women is highest in India.
Forget about highest or lowest. a single instance of Misbehave, family Violence or abuse to women should not happen. It is the most heinous crime any man can do.
But, India is not a nation where violence against women is highest as it is commonly believed. USA and many western nation are far more dangerous for women as compare to India. Data and statistics are available in Internet. any one can check.
What I Feel is, Media loves negativity and it give business also. but these negativity impact our whole society and our joint family relation.
It should not..
Yes
this is a global phenomena and awareness needs to be increased and law
needs to be tougher to deal with harassment, violence and eve-teasing against women..
But
India as a nation is not a degrading place for women..
Note
: This is my personal View, Critics are most welcome.
