Women’s and Male dominated society

Thou we have been listening all along that there’s one God, every one is equal in Sikhism yet we do not accept the fact that Women holds equal rights no matter what. Why do we keep on oppressing women’s? Why we do not let them handle the situation? Why do we keep targeting them as like they are slaves to us? There are millions of questions need to be answered but by who? Where do we look when we need to know all these answers? Whose fault is this that we aren’t giving equal right to women?

I believe that it is my fault, your fault, their fault, it is society’s fault. We have shaped our society in this way that Men carry the highest rank in any household. Well, there was a reason for that because Women’s tend to live in the house and did not know about the outer world and as Men used to stay out for work, dealing with others and had better understanding of the outer world. So at the old times I can understand the reason. But now, in today’s society Duh! Women also deal with the world, she go to work and actually she does two jobs at the same time. Take care of her outer Job and as well as take care of her household and also at the same time prepares her children to live in this world in a better way. Even thou doing all these things yet she’s being oppressed by this male dominated society. It won’t change over night but this will be changed one day if and only if we all start from our own homes. Let’s start giving respect, status, equal position to the women’s in our house as well as women’s surrounding us; we will sure can truly say that we are giving justice to womanish stature. Without Women there wouldn’t have been any of us existed, so women is playing a special role in the world creation. We all need to wake up and walk on the path which Gurbani teaches us and that is “Equality”. Guru Nanak Dev Ji very thoughtfully started the Shiri Guru Granth Sahib Ji with “Ik”. “Oankar” comes after “IK”. So equality comes first and other things come after that. Thou equality is for God or for humans or for anything else in the world.
