I sometimes think, women don't want equality.They don't want everything 'equal equal.' Women want more.
More love. More pampering. More care.
My friend's wife miscarried in the sixth month of her pregnancy. He is a sensitive guy and his wife's agony terrified him. He later would say that the thought of being a woman frightens him. How can anyone bear so much pain? My sister, after the birth of her first child, told me that the pain is so terrible, that if at that time someone slits your throat, you wouldn't know. Till then, I had thought , periods were painful and made life troublesome. But I learnt, that not only the social system, even nature has no limits to pain.
Leave aside men, even I can only imagine that pain. And so, every man who insults, maltreats, hurts or makes obscene remarks about women, should imagine for a moment , the pain a woman has borne to give birth to him.
It should be made mandatory in our country, that every man should be with his wife during her delivery and bear witness to her agony, her screams.
So that he might think ten times before he does anything to hurt her.Perhaps, he may then understand, why women deserve more, not just equal.
More love. More pampering. More care.
I was touched by this post by Manisha Pandey and so translated it.
