Sorry for using these words in the title i.e. Between Bitch and Bechari but those are the two extremes between which the average woman is standing.

She is either the eternally sacrificing, extremely pitiable woman with no self-esteem at all.
Or she is a bad example, shame for the family because she stands up for herself.

The society constantly puts us in these two brackets. It would worship a goddess on one hand and would kill a girl in the fetus on the other hand.

Why can’t it accept the woman as just the other half of the society? Why do we have to put up with all the discrimination and suppression in the name of our culture? Why are we labelled as a bitch when we want to express ourselves?
They will try to portray themselves as broad minded, liberal, progressive by allowing a woman to pursue a career. But she would still be expected not to raise her voice against what is wrong. She would still be the one balancing the two worlds, nobody will give her a concession.

It’s high time that women are thought of as humans, not goddesses, not robots, not demons. But only humans,with her own aspirations and emotions.

These tags must go.

The constant judging must stop so that she can live her life too.

She gives so much for the family, it’s time she is paid back, in love and respect!!!

Happy Parenting with Budding Star ….
