BE YOU THE WORLD SHALL CHANGE!
So I was just having a look at the recent Instagram trends. There was this one trend where the idea of men buying pads was promoted. That was the moment when an thought struck me. Are the ideas we are promoting on social media really being preached by us in the real life? The answer was obviously NO. Because if it was being preached then we wont need such trends, we wouldn't be criticizing women when they were on their periods.
Why do we always stop women from wearing light colored clothes when they are on their periods? Why does a medical store give them pads wrapped in a black paper/polythene? I will be very clear this only promotes taboo and nothing else. I mean this is something no human can do anything about. It is quite natural that every month such days would come when women wont be same: like they will have their mood swings, they will be suffering from body ache and stuff. If you want to take another look see it this way, you are forced to take pains and cramps from the age of 11 or 12 till the age of 50 and you cant do anything about it. I hope you now you get it how much irritating is that.
What's worse? Many people put restrictions on women during these hard times. In many areas they are locked inside a hut to prevent any contact from outside world, they are stopped from touching things and the most heartbreaking is the fact that it is their family members who do such things. Most of the times, such acts are justified under the name of "religion". I mean think practically- Why would God be offended by an act which even he can't stop?
Irony is the entire year we promote the idea of "Women Empowerment" and "Gender Equality" but each month when these days come we just make women feel guilty about their periods. You know we say that it is the athletes who deserve a gold medal but my views are a bit different. I believe every woman should be awarded a gold medal because they just don't stop working even when they are on their periods. Trust me, women are the real AVENGERS. I believe things would be really great if the upcoming generations look up to their mothers as their superheroes rather than their fathers.
SALUTE TO ALL THE WOMEN. THANK YOU FOR NEVER COMPLAINING AND SORRY FOR NOT UNDERSTANDING AND COMFORTING YOU EARLIER.
