imo there’s no greater divide (culturally, mentally, socially, etc) than the one between desi women and desi men, and sometimes i feel like we’re delusional bc of it. we love our heritage, our scriptures, our worship of shakti, and our tales of brave warriors and gods protecting women (and punishing those that hurt us), and hope that our men are the same. we hope that at least some of them share the same values as us. desi women are being taught to strive for education and a good career and that we’re our families’ lakshmi’s. meanwhile, what the hell are the men being taught???? that they can brutalize us, put us “back in our places,” and that we’re all just objects they have free reign over? it’s ridiculous, and honestly at times it feels like we aren’t even from the same planet. when we were told about draupadi’s disrobing and sita’s abduction, the moral was that any person who aids or abets in the violation of women deserves to be destroyed. what morals did the men take away from these stories? what did they hear instead??

while we women are looking towards a better future and shedding our shackles, we honestly hoped that the men will do the same. we hoped that they’ll wake up and realize what we already learned: women are to be respected, and any society that cannot do that is doomed. unfortunately, they haven’t and may never will bc they simply want to regress! i’ve always personally set the bar higher for desi men bc of our upbringing but, GOD, they have made it their life’s mission to lower it. i cannot handle another brutal rape case from india, especially from the supposed devbhumi or stronghold of shaktism.

Is desh ka hindu tab nahi jaagta jab ladkiyon ke khoon ho jaate hai

Tab bhi nahi jab humari behno ke rape ho jaate hai

Tab bhi nahi jab hindu aadmiyo ke gale kat jaate hai

Nahi, tab khaali tweets se kaam chal jaega

Is desh ka hindu tab jaagta hai jab koi hijab pehen le, eid mana le, orange bikini pehen le, inko shak ho ki koi beef bech raha hai.

Aur jaagta bhi hatyaro ya rapists pe nahi, balki un logo pe jinhone inka kuchh bigada hi nahi, ghar mein baithe hai apne.

Phir upar se ye un masoom logo ko hurt karte hue naara bhi Ram naam ka lagate hai aur dharam ka naam girate hai.

Aur pata hai? Is kayarta ko hum log "Hindu ab jaag gaya hai" bolte hai 🙂

Sahi Mein jaag jao aur thodi Sharam karlo, asli khatro se dharm ki raksha karo, shant mahol mein huddang machake dhons mat dikhao.
