Men
often take pride in ‘granting’ freedom to their women, which they think is a
grand favor on their part. Sadly, women too feel or are made to feel lucky upon
having such a liberal man in their lives. However, freedom is one’s fundamental
right and cannot be granted, given or permitted by anyone. Sadly, in our
culture, women are made to feel thankful for basic rights and apologize for
everyone’s mistakes. Such things, in the long run, make them feel guilty about
everything that goes wrong with anyone around them. Society turns them into
blame absorbing sponges.
Even though one may face hateful remarks, I
feel personal freedom is something that must not be compromised upon. A woman's freedom is not a piece of cloth that can be trimmed as per someone's idea of freedom or perceptions.
