Time for men to fight for their rights? (Please read until end; I am sure it will be interesting)
We continually and continuously come across opinions (both by men and women) which always intend to publicize the so called fact that women are discriminated by men. This so called fact is mainly promoted by mass media (like TV, newspapers, magazines). The persons behind this are women who call themselves revolutionists (or who always like to revolt over helpless people) and men who think that they are heroes (politicians also fit into this category). Although it cannot be denied that there is discrimination of women by men sometimes, that fact may not be sufficient enough to neglect these following facts which imply obvious discrimination against men. Of course, people may not agree to this only because many a times people do not think independently but their thinking, ideals and ideas are directly affected by the contemporary society and mass media; at any time in history, only ideas which were considered "really real" by the contemporary societies have been accepted as "real, rational, scientific, good, healthy"; but later even after these "really real" so called facts got proved false, "modern superstitions" (which were considered "really real" by the next contemporary society and also considered "real, rational, scientific, good, healthy" by this society) have always replaced the "old superstitions" ( which were considered "really real" by the earlier contemporary society and which were also considered "real, rational, scientific, good, healthy" by that society).
Now let us look at these facts which reflect obvious discrimination against men:-
(1) According to contemporary society, men should marry at middle ages (not during youth) while only women can marry during youth. Men should be "settled" while marrying; while women can just "eat, chat and sleep" men should "work, work and work". If man is comparatively less active than woman (because of age) it is called "lack of manliness"; If an unmarried man runs behind a woman it is "indecency"; if an unmarried woman runs behind a man it is "equality". We are "whole hearted" to forgive any adultery by women while we (both men and women) roar at men for the slightest indecency; actually there should be more forgiveness towards men because they spend their youth unmarried (while they are more prone to make "mistakes").
In an ideal society, the minimum age for marriage should be the same for both men and women.
It may be 16 years, 18 years and at the maximum 20 years. (The idea that man should be older than woman is not supported by science; human beings are "young and youthful" at the age of 18, according to any scientific opinion; and the so called "early marriage" doesn't have any bad effects (physical, mental or emotional). If there is any problem, it is only because of the foolish society and because of the ignorant culture.
If one is worried about population explosion, the "minimum age for getting children" may be introduced and it may be set for a higher age.
(2) Governments have made rules which give equal rights for male and female children over the ancestral property; it is right. But there are societies which are matriarchal and traditionally all properties used to be transferred from mother to daughter (instead of the well known father to son property transfer). Now, in such cases, isn't it right to give the share of the ancestral property for the male children also?
(3) There should be equal punishment for equal crimes; women are easily forgiven.
Everybody agrees that almost always, culprits are just puppets in the hands of situations. Men are prone to be involved in more crime just because that is the situation created by the society (like men have to rear the whole family; he has to meet unrealistic demands of his wife; otherwise he will be considered waste;
he has to fight with other men;
he has to fight with women who fight for "equality").
Since women do not have all these troubles, it is natural to expect them to be "fair". But the fact is that men get several cruel, inhumane, unimaginable types of punishments like: rollers, aeroplanes, tensioning the body, crushing the body parts, beating with a club with all the strength (sometimes simultaneously by several people for too long), stripping, sexually humiliating etc.. We hear about several custodial deaths also. No such punishment for women involved in similar crimes even though they should not have involved in the crime since they should be less prone to make such crimes as explained above (like comparatively less family responsibility etc.).
If one thinks about the well being of the entire human population, such torture of anybody (men or women) is not correct. But if one thinks only from the "feminine" point of view, one should agree that women involved in such crimes should also be tortured the same way. This is unimaginable, right? This itself is a reflection of our contemporary values; we are always perfectly biased towards women (although we always perfectly argue the opposite). I think even in history we can't find any such heinous torture against any single woman while the deadly torture against captivated soldiers (all men) has been very common all the time.
(4) Feminists talk about "women discriminated at some point in history". But who fought thousands of wars in history? Who got killed, beheaded, stoned, mutilated? Who lost arms, legs, eyes etc.? Who became handicapped life long or died in the battle field without anyone to treat or food? Who got caught by the enemy and got tortured? Whom the kings used to punish more? Men or women? I think all the people put to cross (during olden ages) were men only. I think all the people who were split into two pieces alive (as was done as a part of a punishment) were men. Nobody bothers about the state of men during a particular time and region while talking about the state of women (may be bad) of that time and of that region.
(5) Women are put in comfortable positions and are paid well while their husbands do strenuous jobs. Women are paid more compared to the work they do. Still a woman claims that she is well above her husband if her salary is 30% of her husband's salary; she becomes formidably dominating. Her husband has to put 8 times effort (compared to her effort) to earn "just" 3 times her salary, but he will only be dominated after returning home.
Considering this, I think it is not improper to say "Why can't women be put in works like army, truck drivers, coolies, earth digging, working under the sun, cleaning jobs, cleaning gutters, railway track maintenance, employing as police, watchman, railway track police, traffic police, auto driver, night duties, lorry cleaners, suppliers, cleaners and dish washers in restaurants, cleaners in restaurants, laundry personnel, shopkeepers (night also), cooks, workshop work, garage work, lineman (electric & phone), manufacturing industries etc.?"
Again, there should equal salary for men and women for similar work
(6) Since women from socially and economically forward families have many advantages over and above men from the same class, in these cases, men also should have equal right to divorce. There are hundreds of instances where women have divorced their husbands "just for change" while the husbands were caring, loving and good. The reasons for these divorces were something like: "I want to mingle with people while he doesn't" or "I want to watch movies in the weekends while he prefers to go for a trip" etc.. It is a sad thing that men are not free to divorce even if they have much more serious reasons for seeking that.
(7) A man is made to give monthly compensation to his former wife after divorce (if approved); similarly, women who seek divorce for the reasons like the ones mentioned above should be made to give monthly compensation to the man. The only strength men have above women is a little more muscle power and in the modern world, muscle power doesn't have value and in no way it can equal the money power.
(8) All the family responsibilities are always on the men; women are care free; they only know how to blame their husbands; only know how to talk about "equality of women with men". All these cause a lot of pressure to men. Women also should take "responsibility"; not just want to have "authority".
(9) As explained in (8) above, men have responsibilities. Also they have problems explained in (5). Then is it not terribly unfair against men to fix a lower tax limit while women enjoy tax exemption unto a higher limit? ( Infact, they really "enjoy" with this "extra" money instead of supporting the family with this money as against men who struggle to manage their families with what "little" money they have)
(10) In a child's birth certificate, marks card etc., in addition to father's name, there should be mother's name also. If any woman divorces a man with reasons like those mentioned in (6), if the couple has a child, the woman should also take up the responsibility of bringing up the child; not just the man should be made responsible for the child, in that case.
(11) Male police do not usually handle women; they call women police. In that case, isn't it wrong if women police question a man?
(12) What I will tell now may be amusing; but a great saying goes something like this: " Everything that is original seems amusing or silly at first look", or, "Anything which is not considered silly at first cannot hope to become a revolutionary idea". I think the following are necessary at least to bring confidence in men; to understand that they also have the right for a happy life; to accept that
"Men and women of similar status have not been equal" or "A woman is put much more superior compared to a man of the same status, at least in the contemporary society if not by the earlier societies also ";
to think that there can be "men point of view" also; to be able to free themselves from the perpetual women dominance both at work and at home; to be able to think independently and freely.
These are:
- Men schools, colleges, hostels (just like women only schools etc.)
- Special buses (men only)
- Seat, compartment reservations for men- women to be punished if entered inside these (in the same way men are punished if they enter into women's compartments)
- Special queues for men also
- Providing privacy for men also:- rooms in bus stations (men's rooms) etc., "men's talk", to go fully inside a house
- Equal right to select a spouse
- Men counseling, sex education, psychological help
- Recognition, counseling, development, help, supporting male prostitutes
- Improvement in men's dresses:- both outer and inner
- Men helpline, men's groups, men right activists
- But this "masculism" (as I called it) should continue only until men really get justice. If at all it is ever achieved (For 99.99999999%, it is impossible in this universe), then everybody should become "humanists". The ultimate goal of everyone should be to get justice and happiness for all (irrespective of whether one is a man or a woman). One should never try to imitate the ideology of feminists who believe that "Women should get justice and happiness and "only women should get justice and happiness"".
(13) Now, I am sure that you are convinced at least on some of the points. But you remain quiet, you won't share this blog with anybody, you will fear whether you will be considered crazy if you agree to accept the truth in this blog (although your heart tells that this "may" be right). This is just the proof that the contemporary people (both men and women) are unavoidably biased towards women (anyway this is a "modern superstition" supported by mass media and "beliefs" or "misbelieves" of the contemporary society). So, since you are biased towards women, I think you dare not put a comment for this blog ..
