A grave concern
Today when i began reading the morning newspaper,yet another case of woman molestation caught my attention and the question that troubled my senses was that in a country like india where women are idolized and worshipped in the form of innumerous divinly incarnations,this phenomenon surely cuts a sorry picture.Today women play diverse roles from leading teams in office to handling home chores,taking care of home and family not to forget the initial family values are instilled in a child by the mother beside taking care of the embryo in the womb for 9 long months.My interaction with several women in my life most of whom have shaped my destiny makes me understand that women too are influenced by the same sexual feelings as well as pains similar to men but for proper expression of their self requires the active role of them.It is where they are subjected to discrimination and made to feel like an inferior race.To violate the social norms for few moments of forced sexual pleasure,against the wish of women has tormented the society for long in the form of rape.But the question remains whether times have changed or have gone worse from the medieval times when women were subjected to tortures sometimes in the name of religion and sometimes for the sake of patriarchal values.And it makes us to believe that if the times have not changed for the women the times have not changed at all.
