Why always women play second fiddle? Why even in this 21st century women are regarded as inferior race? The answer to this question can be answered in many ways but the only fact is-yes women are still regarded as inferior to men.
Even in this fast world women walk one step behind men. Women always need some men to protect themselves in the society, whether the woman is a doctor or an engineer. In our Indian society, parents start worrying about their daughter’s marriage just after they crossed 20.
The parents think their daughters need an eligible husband to guide or protect. We can also see the conditions of many widows who live a miserable life due to all this so call lack of protection from their husband. Woman without a man is always looked down and having a man is made a must thing in our society. Are we going to blame the current society for this or just the continuation? We are conditioned in our mind that we are inferior and we need protection and help from men.
Women in all age passes from one hand to another, while at home under father’s or brother’s protection and after marriage under husband’s or sons. How well educated the family is but these are the un-ignorable facts. Subordinate, inferior, secondary..these are the words always associated with women.
In our society today some women are in pity conditions, faced all kinds of injustice at home since childhood and after marriage falls in the inferno due to their husband’s torture. Despite of all the hue and cry about women empowerment, women today are still toyed in men’s hand, some at their homes, some at their work place and some even in hospitals during their treatment.
Women are seen as sexual objects which can be use and ignored. All must have heard about the sexual harassment, rape case, molestation, etc in news papers and television. But no doubt due to the set up of certain NGO’S, Women’s organizations against this violence, women find solace up to some extent.
