Why sell us dreams?

Why do you sell us dreams? Why do you tell us we can achieve everything ? Since the day I was born you bring us up giving me everything . Why does puberty suddenly hit us and I am told that things are different , don’t do this , do that , and do this more ,learn this as this will help you later . What is this mysterious later? i strive to reach the moon , try to get good grades , be happy trying to break the invisible barriers and the shackles laid down by the society .

What is patriarchal mindset ?

 The mindset that is so ingrained in our society just to control us women . It seems as if we are sirens in disguise , just by mere walking down the road the inner exon of us and sex comes out in men . And you know the noodles , and chow mien we eat , they make us fast . Are we the road Runner? Why is it essential that one needs to be good ,nice , demure during the day and be a sex goddess at night ? Men have such dictates over us , they want to tell us how to sit , how to walk, eat , sleep. , and wear and what we are allowed to do .

In genteel society , one is allowed ( mind you )to do ladylike pursuits .

Just like Bridgeton , nothing has changed much in our lives,we are still expected to follow only lady like pursuit s, be chaperoned by a male , wear clothes that are appealing , a tad bit revealing to catch the eye but demure enough .Doesn’t that sound familiar ? We all angle for the right catch as if we are fishing ?  And , if we are the right trout or salmon , then all is well . It’s this what we all need to strive to .

Forget being an andolanjeevei or a protestor , our skin will get dark . And if you  like the young woman who wanted to work an d continue working as a nurse, be prepared to be stabbed and no one , would have the balls to come and ave you ,because they were busy making a movie . A young woman was stabbed 25 times, violently by her deranged husband who because he was within his right ( thanks to the archaic law ) to kill her , but what was more disgusting was that people recorded him killing his wife , passed by in their cars , but nobody made an effort to stop him and save her . She died on the spot in her blood and she was punished because she chose her career and took a stand for it. The husband took a break and rested because poor guy ! As exhausted after killing her . 

Who was more deranged? The man or the shameless public whose sense of excitement was aroused. Have we stooped so low that we find pleasure in all thi s? Look around, you isn’t the next person a woman ,doesn’t she deserve the same as you? What about her dreams and her joys ? Why stab, kill , burn , rape , assault , kill them just because you are intimidated?

My maid sums it up beautifully , she says they never spared Draupadi so why would they do to us now ? This is the end isn’t it? Pandemic or no when we c cant respect a human being why should the world survive ?
