On Women's Liberators

This is addressed to the so called women liberation activists. But I wonder whether they are sincere enough to read this article completely. I wonder whether they act on it honestly and creatively. These activists are spending their time , money and energy in entertaining one another. These activists call themselves as revolutionaries having trained themselves in western culture and western education. Do not mistake me for an old religious dogmatist or obscurantist or paternal conservative. These 'Revolutionaries', as they call themselves as such, are in reality a bunch of show mongers, full of vanity and seldom use their central nerve system. A revolutionary, to call oneself as such, should have an ideology and an in-depth knowledge of the existing society's idealogy. If they do not, how can they expect to change the existing social system? The present activists have none. Infact, they are not sure of what they really want to do. 

There are two set of activists, though they cannot be called as factions. I call them as hardliners and the compromises. The hardliners are those who accuse men for every condition of women. They just refuse to think that men and women are two different forms of individuals with inherent weaknesses in varying degrees. They want everything on par with men. This may be commended. But they strech it too far and they demand a life for women and men which makes us recall the life of humans in the pre-historic age where was no family and no civilization. It would be a life that looks no different from animals'. In that  state, for security's sake, women retire into matrilineal camps and men organize themselves to raid these camps and loot the food and women. And women in turn raid men's camps to retrieve their women, food, arms and animals. Well, it would be a thrilling adventurous life but minus the facility of civilization and the warmth of culture. This ideology If thought out in depth, neutralises the women instead of motivating them to demand liberation. 

There is the second set of activists who say that they want liberation but not equality . They want to be free but shirk from responsibility. They want their men to let them work in offices, spend their own money, enjoy the company of boy friends, yet they want a man to marry them, accept to be father of her children and he should protect her and her family. I call these as compromisers because they know that they cannot get the state as demanded by the hardliners. So, they settle for an immoral life in the guise of moral life. They want to be recognised as good wives besides being bad wives(with liberty) under cover. 

This is the reason why the Women's liberation has become a show business for these fanciful ladies. How do you expect these to be revolutionaries? Male domination in the Asian countries particularly among Islamic and Hindu countries is so strong that nothing short of a revolution can liberate them. But women's liberation in these countries shall not come about even after a thousand years if these women liberation 'revolutionaries' nurture the same ideology. They need an entirely new ideology which should be as powerful as a Neutron bomb. 

If these women really want equality with men, they have to think scientifically. In addition to that they need a strong conviction because on this path they may have to sacrifice some of their beliefs and affiliations to any particular liberation thoughts.

All these women should realise that both men and women need each other. It is the reason,sponsibility of them both to continue humankind. Women cannot shirk from this responsibility. If they do, it would be a sabotage against mother nature. Think of the future of the world. The women need to be educated on par with men. But what kind of education? In my opinion proper thinking is birth right of every man and woman. Women are enslaved by making them incapable of logical thinking. Thus , they are stuffed with illogical thoughts and beliefs. So, logical thinking or reason is the best education the women need. If they get it, nothing is impossible for them. All other subjects of study come next. 

After education, the next is moral life. A person when he or she gets reason, starts to think himself or herself as very strong and begins to disrespect not only blind beliefs but also the beliefs about God, ghost,hell and heaven. In addition to that, he or she transgress the moral codes of society. Though they refuse religious beliefs, moral principles are necessary to live in society. If they are alone in an island like Robinson Crusoe, they may not need moral codes of behavior like truthfulness, not to steal or not to committ adultory. But in society among other humans we need to honour each other. 

In marriage, the man should be denied freedom to discard the wife at will. So, every marriage should be legally registered. They can seperate by mutual consent that too only through court by giving suitable reasons and evidence. Monogamous life is perfectly democratic. It upholds one man and one woman martal relationship. Polygamy and polyandry existed in primitive societies and modern women should reject the philosophies and political parties that support such systems.

Women should fight for equal property rights. Both sons and daughters should have equal rights in the family property. That is economic equality. 

Women should reject war and violence. Men devised violence to terrorist and play with the mind of women. War was invented by men to enslaved women by killing their men enmasse. We don't need war in modern democratic World. In war one man's desires kill the lives of many families. 

I hope modern women think on these lines and be truly mature, thinking, strong and responsible.
