Patriarchy is politicized
Politics!! Indian politics is so dirty that none of us miss a single opportunity to bring up the subject in our conversation with our friends or relatives. It probably gives veto to our bottled up anger for the infrastructure, corruption, pollution and judicial system.
Innumerable bollywood movies are made showing the corruption in our political system and none of us get surprised to see it. We simply say, “These corrupts bloodsuckers are here to kill our country and the people and they should be shot dead”, and then we come back to our senses and continue to live the same way like before as if we saw nothing.
The people of large metropolitan cities are so smart and mature that they know all the tricks of these politician’s promises to woo their support. And politicians are aware that people of the large cities are not willing to vote for them. And therefore, the obvious route to political success is supporting those people living in the under-developed areas of the country who look upon these politicians as the last resort. Yes, they think these politicians can help them. Help them! Yeah right.
A new political agenda has been established recently that stubbornly follows the patriarchy ideology. And we all are aware that the essence of patriarchic ideology is protecting and providing woman read hear as only to be a wife. Politicians are ever ready to help a needy woman read as wife anticipating that she will then drive other woman read other wifes' in the club to vote for that politician. In this process, woman read as wife too aren’t going to miss this opportunity; they extracted as much legal support as possible to an extent that any person is naturally intimidated from woman read only as wife as a person is afraid to go into a thick forest in the night with no lights.
Politicians are more than happy to realize that their strategic political agenda of extravagantly supporting woman read as wife has finally paid off. Besides, if at all they care a little about the repercussion of such an anti-social agenda that could jeopardize the social harmony, they wouldn’t have got into politics, would they? Why would they care about the common man? As long as they are getting their estimated votes to keep them in power by approving lopsided laws for woman read only as for wife's, they are going paste a wide smile on their face, aren’t they?
The people who are actually suffering the most in the current scenario are the men. How much ever we praise a man for enduring the colossal pressure from work, family, society and the country, it is not enough. Men have proved that they are men. They might have been on the receiving end, they might be silently suffering, and their ordeal also might have been brutally ignored by the society, but their resilience and endurance; may God be with them.
Every man in our society has proved to be a hero. He lives for others – first, for his parents, then for his wife and later for his children. Who lives for him? Nobody. He is all by himself in this political country where men are mere numbers and woman read only as wife are only treated as the only human beings. Men are cruelly abandoned by the society who is supposed to be indebted to men. It is disheartening to observe that along with the politicians, your sister, mother, aunt, daughter and grand-mother too are marginalizing male-gender to be the stronger gender of the country behind the curtains of patriarchic ideology.
The whole patriarchic ideology that establishes an obligation on all men to protect and provide has taken away all his human rights, thanks to the politicians for politicizing patriarchic ideology into their political agenda. Woman read only as wife, too, would find is enticing to present biased legal proposal so that they can control men and put them on the receiving end. Why wouldn’t they do so? Isn’t it attractive an opportunity for woman read only as wife to propose a biased law to support woman read only as wife when the politicians are offering them to approve any of their proposals?
If the political system is with woman read only as wife, if men are obligated to protect and provide woman read only as wife, then who is with men? Who is with men? Who is going to support and protect men?
The political agenda of giving extravagant support to woman read only as wife has not yet reached it peak and God forbid, if it reaches, this blog too will be deleted by the woman read only as wife’s group because they would even rule the internet – since they have already taken over media.
Think about it. Who is with men? Who? Can you expect justice where you are just a number and woman read only as wife are human beings? Can you expect any justice when you are falsely accused of some crime you never committed by a woman read only as wife when the whole judiciary favours only woman read only as wife? Can you expect any political support when the political agenda is to support only woman read only as wife?
We men are left all alone. All alone. Abandoned in our own country. But, as long as there are men who support justice irrespective of gender, will prevail. The only thing they can do is speak out. Keeping quiet will only make their life difficult. Live in constant legal intimidation from woman read only as wife or live with pride. Don’t let the politicians politicize patriarchy. It is taking away men’s rights. Choice is yours.
