And this is the truth of our country and I will feel guilty of Being Indian if she will not get Justice.
Throughout our entire adolescence women will be adultified. Told that we are ‘more mature’ than our male peers. More responsible, more reliable. We’ll be given tasks and responsibilities that are not expected of our brothers and barely expected of our fathers. The oldest daughter will start to clean and cook and take on child care duties for siblings. We listen to mother’s emotional outbursts of pain because ‘we just get it.’
And when a sixteen year old starts dating a man who’s been out of high-school as long or longer than she’s been there, this rhetoric can be used as justification. “Well she’s actually more mature than he is” her mother titters with a laugh. “He’s the only boy on her level” her father says sagely.
And I ask; how is the sixteen year old girl ‘more mature’ than the adult man who has years worth of life experience, the right to vote, drive a car and purchase liquor? What experiences, privileges, rights or understandings does the high schooler have on this man?
The answer is nothing she is simply more mature by virtue of being female. And isn’t that just so convenient for predatory men.
Why do girls mature faster than boys?
We don’t
Men just need a reason to justify expecting and extracting more from us earlier on in our lives.
Does hozier owe the mob money or something? Like this man usually does 4-5 years between albums but we already got an ep after unreal unearth and now we are getting another? Like I’m very happy for more music but like did he sell his soul and now is trying to buy it back or something?
No but this can fix me fr!
bro shut up I’m trying to gut you and feel your arterial spray on my face
How iconic will it be if I could get a Julius Caesar cake for my bday(15th mar).
Saying "Gonna be Nobody's Soldier" instead of "I won't be anybody's soldier" because he won't be a puppet to an oppressive regime but that doesn't mean he will stop fighting for Nobodies, one who war is crushing and killing. Oh my fucking god, what if I ate my hand Andrew
"One could never count the moons that shimmer on her roofs,
Or the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls"
Had to pick it up again this women's day.
To the women in Afghanistan and the women in the USA and the women across the globe.
The struggle never ends. The despair never stops. The rage is ever growing.
Rest in Power Mariam Jo.
The Kolkata case was a well planned revenge crime. The mamata banerjee's government have tampered the evidence and it will make CBI job difficult, I don't know whom they are trying to save, but this case is not what it looks like. I strongly feel that, this was done by some very powerful and influential people. This is the condition of law and order in this country. There is no difference between government and criminals. Our laws are only for rich and powerful, you can purchase anything with money; the laws, the government, the crime, everything! The middle/Lower class is born to suffer in this country. Criminals know that it is easy for them to escape and laws are there to protect them, so even if they do wrong, they will be free. Government knows that people will cry for few days, there will be candle march for few days and after that everything will come back to normal. So, nobody really cares about the weak in this country. It is a brutal crime to have 'HOPE" in a country like India. Our beloved PM Modi ji has not uttered a word on this case because there are no votes or maybe he does not watch news, raga opened his mouth after five days, opposition parties are just blaming eachother (nothing new), I want to ask each of them that women make half of their vote bank, if women of this country collapse, how will your country run?
And, after this horrifying case no man should ask for a female doctor for his wife when she is sick or pregnant. No female officer should give duties and serve in villages away from their home when everything is only about men and for men and by men. It is sick to see the amount of misogyny, patriarchal society and how rarely things have changed. We are still in the same loop, people.
Yesterday, a man tied his wife to bike and dragged her, imagine. This is the fate of women in this country who will celebrate independence day tomorrow. What kind of independence we have? I am woman and I don't feel safe in my house when some male guest visit us, I am told to wear certain kind of clothes inside my own fucking house, I am woman and I feel uncomfortable around men when I go out, I am not free, so it's clear that independence day is only for men, not for women. I ask where a woman should go? Should we hide ourselves in a room? Why do government talk about women empowerment when they can't give basic safety to their citizens. Men need to learn that they can't treat women like trash and get away with it. This is suffocating, death is better than a life that is lived with a constant fear.
Crime against women is crime against humanity.
