It’s been long since I posted anything here. Perhaps I was too busy with so many unimportant things in life.
Well my intentions to this post are sincerely out of watching a woman based movie which impelled the ‘feminist’ in me.

A man has always been considered superior to a woman. He is stronger physically with better stature, broader shoulders and brawny muscles. He has always been hunting for food and cultivating a living to feed his family. He has been the ruler, the achiever, and the savior for many provinces, societies and nations. He is seen to be born to govern and dominate.
On the other hand there is a woman with delicate and fragile features who is assigned a small place in the backdrop. She is supposed to create a safe shelter for the mighty man taking care of his appetite, delivering his offspring and bringing them up.
Things have changed now with the woman but man remains the same. A woman is now emancipated who can challenge her counterpart in all the planes of his activity. She can now prove her mettle and merit to the whole world. And such a development has only given rise to arguments, quarrels, divorces, old age homes, orphanages etc.
Why do we still believe in the myth that man is superior to woman? He is not. None of them is superior to the other. Both are complimentary. There is no comparison. A man cannot do without a woman and vice versa. One does not exist without the other. Together their life is complete and meaningful. Both of them have their own charms, roles, duties and responsibilities.
All of us have to believe in it. And not just us as individuals but us as a society, us as a nation. There are many subjects to fight for than gender discrimination.
I have seen many men accepting this fact and respecting women. Probably this trait of a man determines his quality. Let us not be man or woman, let us be just individual human beings. May be this is a point of view of a woman.
Rich.
