role reversal

My sign is in danger of being taken over by the rampage of the weaker sex, you know the women from Venus. It seems that all that we have kept sacred, together from the times of Manu is being scattered and blown to smithereens by these laws which are slowly and slowly empowering women.
The last bastion, Lohri celebrations was taken away by the so-called custodians of the society. What would they know! We are in danger of being obliterated and becoming obsolete, taken out once in awhile to being just the sperm donor. Very clinical.
As my life starts, there is sexual discrimination right from the time of my nursery admission, an upstart girl would get preference and ruin my chance just because she is an only girl child she would get priority. New Delhi region all adheres to this, especially the public schools. It just doesn’t get easier, if all children are equal, why do we have to give up our seats, let them have a separate queue? Their incessant giggling and smirking and smiles where they get an upper hand because they are girls is enough to drive anyone up the wall. There is a quota system which we have to deal with, be it any college, any professional college, the customary job which is taken over by woman so as to adhere to the requisite number of women in an office according to law.
Why does the poor man, have to fight at all turns? Then comes, finding a friend, we are doomed if it’s not platonic and abused if heaven forbid, we mention that we have a love interest. Does it get easier anyway? When making a match (arranged) the girl has all the luck. She gets to have the upper hand,marriage law being with her. The draconian laws which exist in this country can put a man behind bars if she just whispers the word ‘dowry’. There is a general consensus that we made these laws to protect the weaker, fairer sex but not at the cost of manipulation. Gurbinder Singh Anand, says that he has seen many cases where men suffer atrocities at the hands of women. Many men are languishing in jails without bail implicated in false cases where the woman gets away with literally murder.

We as a race find masculine feminists overbearing who are over the top , who manipulate their sexual identity to suit the purpose, be it money, a job, money ; the crux of all. Sometimes, the power game is what drives them and we get a bashing. The innocence is what dupes men in general and they use this double edged identity to their benefit. Men have a genetic code built in them where we are taught to be deferential to a woman; this again taught by our mothers, a woman but this generation is all set to break these barriers. They compete with us; walk side by side but at the slightest get back to being a specie form Venus!
Arrogance, bad attitude are turn-offs and not desirable, as Yogeet Brar says that women try to masculine and in that process lose their identity. Women in general also agree that there is manipulation of laws by their own sex. Interestingly, the fairer sex says that change should be inward- out. We need to change the mindset rather than outward appearances.
Please let this be the case.

Interestingly,this piece has been written by a woman.
