Throughout history women have been enslaved by men using religion or culture as an excuse. I see oppression of women as a disorder and needs to be wiped out. I cant seem to understand why we are being frightened with hell when hell on earth is already brought to us by oppressing and inflicting so much brutality and degradation upon us the women. The woman gives birth to the human species and yet she is considered as inferior. A woman is being denied the right to use the same mind the creator has given her to think, operate compare and choose for herself. As a woman am forced to have only one purpose in life, and that is to satisfy man's every desire. I believe that God Almighty created me from the man's ribs to stand by his side as equal. He didn't create me from his head to be superior to him or from his feet to be inferior. Is high time we stop taking religion scriptures literally or at worst, misinterpret them.
A lot will start saying i am being westernized, I get that a lot already, but This has nothing to do with western Influence. It is a personal view and its coming straight from the inside as a result of critical thinking. I cant help but wonder why how a woman should totally submit to a man and he decides basically how she functions is always the order of the day. These injustice is just not sitting right with me.
I think that a woman should stop limiting herself to her lipsticks, blushes or her mascaras to feel beautiful or get a man attracted to her, like they way she is made to believe is the only thing she is good at. A beautiful woman is a strong, bold, intelligent, confident and passionate. Now there is only two ways a man make notice of such a woman, its either he gets attracted or gets intimidated.
We all need to get over traditional / cultural suffocation of women and start rebeling for a better solution. A woman is Abused Mentally and or physically on a daily bases. Is high time every man understands the "treat me right I treat you excellently, and respect me i respect you back" mentality.
Most women are helpless because they are not financially stable, She is vulnerable and even with the oppressed and abused life, taking herself out of the situation by leaving will be the last thing she will think of. She is instead worried about where she will go if she leaves and How people will view her, and with children involved makes it a lot difficult, he takes advantage of that, hence the abuses continues. After all he has nothing to loose He will End up having custody of kids and keeping the house. She is then left to go around fending for herself, life becomes a lot harder and again because of the believe that marriage and being under a man is the only way out and the only way to survive, she will then have no option but to remarry and fall back in the same circle with life repeating itself.
When a woman agrees to continuously get oppressed even though she is dying in the inside, she is considered as pious and needs to be emulated, on the other hand if a woman refuses to be ruled over and demands that she chooses for herself, she gets jeered at or vilified. An oppressed woman means potentials and capabilities crippled, it means chances of adding value to the society denied.
When you stand to fight for what you believe in, People will Criticize you of course, I've learned not to take criticisms the wrong way, it can only affect me positively. Criticism calls for debate and thats exactly what you need as a starting point in getting your voice heard. People can judge all they want i will still stick to what I believe in. Let's all be morally courageous, this is a call for all oppressed women to refuse the idea of a male voice deciding how they should behave and demand that they decide for themselves. Fight for the greater good, the truth always prevails and like i always like to say, "truth is true because it derives from reasoning".
