All this current
hoopla surrounding sex selective abortion completely befuddles me.... Don't get
me wrong I am proud to be a woman and am completely for the fairer sex.......
but there is an old English maxim that says that 'Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind' and I completely believe in it........
Give birth to more women,
they say… But to do what? Treat them like cattle or even worse… huh… if you
cannot guarantee a woman a life of (I wouldn’t say equal, that’s way too optimistic)
some opportunities, why give her a life at all?
A friend of the
fairer sex, today remarked that she wished an expecting relative had a girl,
and no sooner did she say this, that, she clucked in horror and proclaimed, a
boy would be better, as at least he would get to live his dreams out!!!!!!!!!
Fighting for more
women in Rajasthan or any part of the country (Delhi, Bombay or Guwahati)???? Huh…
do the self proclaimed holy crusaders have any idea what life the poor girl
will be subjected to….. do they have any idea how a fourth or even the first
girl in an Indian village be treated like, given away like liabilities to dowry
mongers, no chance to an education or a semblance of life… the point here is
that the more the daughters are, of such families, the poorer their quality of life
will be…. Is it not then better, that they do not come to life at all?
Why not encourage
village people who already have girls to opt for sex selective abortion? It not
only saves a child from a life of abject disregard, it also improves the
chances of existing girls being treated better…..
I mean chuck
villages look at cities, how safe are women in Delhi, Mumbai, Calcutta or
Guwahati for that matter? Can a lowly woman legitimately refuse the advances of
an honorable man, without being, molested—live on camera, raped, mutilated, attacked
with acid or even killed…. Delhi being the capital of India in all spheres has
furnished women, death sentences, for crimes as ghastly as refusing a drink
(think Jessica Lall)…..
Just to mention,
that a woman loses all rights to reproach if she has a) been out in the night (alone
or accompanied) b) had been to a pub and/or had a drink or two (now this is
what I call an invitation) c) knew the perpetrator (as a friend, boyfriend or acquaintance,
we aren’t that choosy)… not that she had much in the first place, but these
three are complete deal breakers…..
A gentle caveat: Relatives,
fathers, brothers and friends supporting such immoral women may also be liable
to punishment (think Ruchika Girhotra’s family, Keenan Santos and Ruben
Fernandes)
The ones mentioned
above apply, if women have been bad enough to venture out of their homes… but
what of the cases of domestic violence, marital rapes et al… well these are
fitting punishments of crimes ranging from getting inadequate dowry, to refusing
to obey their personal Gods (read husbands)
Well these you may
say are extreme cases, but what of the many daily penalties to be imposed, on a
woman’s dressing, mingling and what not (think all daily activities)…. From being
not allowed to pursue a course of their choice to a job and well, also other hobbies
(can’t be leaving out anything)… Marrying a man of their choice??? That is…uh…
well, out of syllabus, as they say…..
Trivia: A code for
being a good woman cannot be published, as items under scrutiny, when put to
paper may well exceed global paper production!!!!!!! They can also not be
stored digitally, as servers as large as Africa will be needed to process them!!!!!
Just having a life
is not important; it must be worth living……
Giving birth to more
girls is not going to change anything, if we do not change the way we treat
them….
And therefore I
appeal, to all, to be kind to the unborn girls and kill them, so they do not
have to live, a life thus….
