This is an analytical piece of writing in the form of an blog that expresses the dichotomy between the ideal and real condition of women in the patriarchal society of India.

What is a right to the masculine society has been a privilege to me?

All in all, existence of only one statement is important: dignity served to the women shall be inviolable. Women empowerment, in all ideal aspects, alludes to liberate ladies from financial shackles, reliance and hardships.Unfortunately, the chasm between the ideal and the real situation is wide and deep. Women, since time immemorial, have been many times suppressed under the banner of male chauvinism; this era has seen no change other than a few hollow deliberations over women empowerment and equal rights to women. The colloquial world thinks of women to emancipate on their own but without liberty and faith, it all seems to be faded.

The ever-questionable topic of women empowerment, if not empowerment, at least the equal treatment of women in the society remains unanswered even now. It is not the case that there have been no attempts to alleviate the distress of women, some generous men tried hard to bring equality, but the major portion of male-headed society never really worked towards it. The irony is, women are considered just the bodies fit to fulfil desires and needs; their desires and needs are given a blind eye and a deaf ear.

All across the globe, like India, women happen to undergo a lot of hatred or obscene circumstances. They take numerous kinds of abuses and get accosted both ways: verbally and physically; words that tear their souls apart and disgrace dignity, and hands that crush their bodies as a mere object for momentary pleasure or a punch bag to vent out frustration. Torture inflicted on them knows no limits or ends; they are beaten up, thrashed, and the most heinous of all RAPED.

The statistics of the world shows a shocking 35% of girls and women being molested and raped each year; in India the percentage is 59. 15 million adolescent girls have experienced forced sex across the globe. Rapes, molestation and forced sex are illegitimate in the eye of law, yet women undesirably get sexually molested by men and without any castigation men are free from the bars. It is absolutely unfair for a man to be free, free to treat women as a toy, free to jeopardize her rights and free to escape punishments.

All around the world, countries like Finland or Australia have the lowest rate of abduction or molestation because of the uncompromising and illiberal protocols that they adhere to. The security system and the judiciary system are inflexible about any lapses against the safety of women. This discourages any crimes against this gender. Whereas in countries like Sweden or India, due to lenient and imprecise norms of the country the men have instilled the audacity to encounter the women sexually. After they are done with all sorts of sexual assaults or rubbish, they have their nerves still steady as a rock. Men carry out bloody trails of unwilling fondle and they are not even scrutinized for the same. The main jumble behind all this is that the ladies are self-deprecated.

Womenare generally stifled by gender inequality without any consideration to the fact that they are the key to development of the nation.Even if risen to a commanding position, they suffer rant of the patriarchal mentally. It is imperative that the society understands that men and women are the wheels of a cart; each needs to be healthy and sound for proper movement of it. The world is also a progressive cart and both male and female have remarkable and diverse encounters, so both are precious to carry impact into the basic leadership process.

In this progressive age, women with the support of men should be naturally dependent, monetarily autonomous and produce certainty to confront any troublesome circumstances and impel dynamic cooperation in different socio-political advancement tries.

Women have all kinds of ability andcapability to go in different arenas of employment which predominantly would improve their living standards and help them produce their strong foothold in some proficiency. Their mentality would run parallel to what men think and perhaps would be able to articulate and affirm the power of independent decision-making.

Women folks demand respect and granting dignity to them is not a favour; they deserve it. Needless to say, women’s role can never be undermined or demeaned. She is an ocean of potential and multitasking has never been a challenge for her. From bringing up children to feeding family, her work is never ending but unfortunately, her effort are unnoticed and her work is often thankless!
