It’s Unfair

Everybody demands a mental space of their own persona, where flight of imagination covers universe and peace captures mind. A seed will blossom to refreshing flower only when it is watered and cared well; butterflies make this nature colorful through their vivacious nature. Every living and non-living object in this world has a rationale which makes this world most beautiful in this cosmos. But Pandora’s box evils have multiplied all around and a virtual resistance has born-again to smack against the nature.

Sometimes, I get pissed off with all the incessant things happened in this part of globe. Wondering why a person goes insane, atrocious and inhuman. Just few days back, come across these stories.. dalit girl , 16 year old story and also in addtion didn't mean to cause you pain (from Kaleidoglide).
Dictionary is short to define those persons. Much has been said about Jessica Lal (full chronological status) case. Laxity from law is well recognized and justice remains confined to heavy purses and rich-sections of society. What one need is money and officially s/he can frame rules, decide what goes next and easily mould constitution. Rightly said Sabse bada rupaiyya. In most of the times, it’s either poor or women, who suffer most. Women suffers because of long jurisdiction procedures, offensive questionnaires and bad name in society and eventually cases lost in files. Everything boils down to insecurity; gender bias, abusive culture, eve teasing and that create puncture in social structure. Rape has always been a part of human history. Almost all cultures have such history. During all wars, the winning army ravaged the women of the loser. If we look back at known human history, we see a history of male superiority and aggressive behavior. Till the recent past, a rapist was not even 'publicly' looked down upon. Worldwide, in all cultures, mythological are full of rapes, attempted rapes, abductions, and molestations. All societies condemned rape when it was perpetrated on its own women, and encouraged or closed their eyes to it when it was perpetrated on their enemy's women. It is only with the rising equality of women in modern civilization that rape was at least publicly accepted as a crime. But the society is still pretty many gender-unequal, and old attitudes are not those old yet.

8th march has come on gone, and it’s been celebrated only to demonstrate that there is a weaker gender in this society. Talking to one of my friend, her parents were looking for a bridegroom and even after a highly educated; she was paraded numerous times before unknown people and then after rejected for not fulfilling dowry requirements. Who on this world wants to be walk before greedy people and whom the stupid who has lays down the rules of dowry? Her parents have spent lakhs of rupees to get her best education and in spite of all this, that girl has no choice of with whom she will spend her entire life. Ridiculously, her parents has to pay handsome money to choose eligible partner, if that asshole is eligible for her then why he needs money? Our social system is too restrictive, bound by religion, caste-systems and orthodox thoughts, which prevents freedom of thoughts.

I blame this social structure for all the atrocities happening. Concepts like Patriarchy, polygamy and tradition of disrespecting woman after winning the war has evolved over a period of time and real cause of gender imbalance in society. Though people talk about gender equality, but I feel that there is wide gender imbalance and it will move stealthily in our society for decades to come.
