taslima nasreen

Taslima Nasreen:a pure woman activist got banned from her own country bangladesh for protesting non muslims and women tortures on several issues by the government. her books Dwikhandita, Lajya and others are banned from publishing in bangladesh. conservative islamic people announced the price of her head! (even though they call themselves democratic!).
the questions raised against her are that she is anti-islamic etc. while the first statement of her book lajya states "let the other name of religion be humanity". the holy Quaran also states if there is death of one innocent there is death of whole humanity. so where did she become anti-islamic? it's time for us to see who is more religious & what is religion? is it killing/announcing price of head for a person trying to save rights of women and minorities or an attempt to save humanity.
let's ask ourselves who is more dear to God/Ram/Krishna/Shiva/Allah.

agnipariksha

even our most famous & respected epics showed us male domination in society. even after being clean Sita maa had to give agnipariksha otherwise her kindom wont accept her! the biggest question is Ram the purushottam whom we call didnt object it, allowed his wife's insult without even a single protest. have anyone thought had something be the case with Ram (with due respect to Ramji) would ayodhya have talked anything behind?

(kindly note it is not at all intended to hurt anybody's sentiments regarding ramayan, but to put forward the male domaination in society only. there are other sources which speak that the one sita who gave agnipariksha was not real sita, though i never had such a reference in valmiki ramayana, yet whomsoever it may the society remained in favour of men only & sita was mistrusted.)

women in space

have u ever asked yourself how this girl reached the space? we watched her on tv. it was because she is confident & she felt proud of her existence, proud of being a girl. Sunita Williams is a true hero for any independence loving & striving girl. if u want to be like her first believe in yourself like she did.

what is women independence?

the small question is now how is women independence possible?


the answer is very easy. there is nothing called women independence its personal independence. individual independence. nothing special for women. the only speciality is we have to think, know, learn & strive for what we think ours. we have to ask why, we have to learn to think more than what we are taught to think.



as a small example i would say have u seen circus elephants? they are tied with ropes. havent u asked yourself ever that why they remain tied like this? they have immense power to break the chains & destroy the circus camps. so why? the reason is when the elephants are brought to circus they were baby elephants, they didnt have that power to break the chains. they tried but failed but that failure is still in their minds & they believe it is not possible by them to break the chains. so is our condition. for ages the society has taught us, u are to wear ghunghat, u arent allowed to talk & laugh at loud voice, u are not to get more education than boys, u are to get married & reduce our burden, u cant keep relation to boys as friends so we believed them! because everyone did that, we didnt have knowledge that we have the power to win over the boys. now we have the knowledge, so let's break the chains & live like human not women!

this is women independence the realisation that we not women, we are human!

ask yourself

Just a few things to note first:
1. after enduring nine months of pain a when a mother ultimately sees a boy, she's happy but if a girl is born she is not. why? why is her face down to see a girl who will be able to produce one like her?
2. after the work at office when a girl returns to home she has to teach her child even though the father is more educated. if we have to do so why dont our family give marriage to uneducated boys? what's the problem, if the dads wont take up the child's respensibility.
3. family saves for boy's education but girl's marriage. why dont they save for boy's marriage if they have to save for girl's marriage? or else why not for girl's education?
4. a rapist gets 5/7 years but society rejects the raped girl. why?
5. we worship mother Goddess, but have u ever seen female purohits/priests? why? why women are not to worship the mother, who is a girl?
6.even we also dont allow girls to enter the temples during menstrual periods. why? wont a child go to her mother during that time if she needs?
7. women to wear borkha, pardah, churnis to cover their faces so that boys dont see their faces. so why not impose helmets on boys so that girls dont see their faces too? otherwise just punish the evil eyed ones.
8. the girl have to wear saree otherwise the schools object the teacher's dress. we are very respectful to our culture. okay so why not tell the boys to wear dhoti & kurta for male teachers too?
9. a girl's father gets bankrupted by paying his daughter's dowry. isnt it worse than slavery? even the slave owners get money in exchange of slaves but girl's father has to give so. though ultimately she's no more than a family's slave.
10. an eve teaser's enjoyment is to bully a girl for being a girl. nobody teases a boy for being a boy.
11. after marriage a man is allowed to keep relation with his friends who may be of opposite sex, but not the girls, why?
12. killing of female infants/at the womb are banned but the tortures after being born are???

it's time for us to view & analyze the reasons behind & the process to irradicate them.
