What were you wearing? <\/b><\/i><\/p>What were you up to at 10 in the night? Obviously, this was bound to happen\u2026<\/b>.<\/i><\/p>All these and many more are too common a phrase for us girls. Since time immemorial, all of us have experienced such situations wherein we are always considered to be at fault. The first finger is pointed at us. It is hard to digest that the way we dress, eat, speak, laugh, walk and basically our existence itself is questioned. It is imperative to understand that irrespective of our age, race, caste and personality, the only reason why we are a pawn in the hands of this society is due to us belonging to the \u2018weaker\u2019 <\/i>gender. It is pathetic to even be asking such questions but aren\u2019t women clothed from head to toe ogled at? <\/p>Aren\u2019t babies raped?<\/p>Aren\u2019t aged women raped too?<\/p><a href=\"http:\/\/liberalamerica.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/age-cycle-woman.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">image source<\/a> <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1483033274151","data":"58654ae0e4c01"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1483033298480","data":"One politician shared his views which were of \u2018utmost\u2019 importance by quoting that jeans and chow Mein were the main reasons for rape. Also, his counterpart chipped in to say that boys will be boys, they will just have fun and it is the girls that need to be controlled. <\/p>Wow! Simply wow!<\/p>Instead of locking up every existing entity of female gender, wouldn\u2019t it be wise to lock up the perpetrators? <\/p>Instead of telling women how to dress and why not to shorten their dresses, wouldn\u2019t it be better if we improve the shortcomings in our upbringing?\n<\/p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.asafeharborhome.org\/uploads\/2\/9\/8\/9\/2989318\/3324495_orig.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">image source<\/a> <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1483033444634","data":"58654b8cc5685"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1483033489904","data":"It is essential for all of us, especially females to understand that no matter what the society including your family brackets you into, you are not<\/b> a toy that chauvinistic pigs can derive pleasure from, you are not<\/b> the weaker gender who can be \u2018controlled\u2019 into being submissive. <\/p>You have a choice and you have a voice too. <\/p>Yet, it is wretched to see that we ourselves follow these regressive rules set by a chauvinistic society. Some of our own kind don\u2019t stand by us. We face situations that make our blood boil almost every day yet, we turn our backs to it and console ourselves by saying \u2013'It is okay'  <\/i><\/p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jenniferpwilliams.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/it-is-not-okay.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">image source<\/a> <\/i><\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1483033772310","data":"58654ce7b51c3"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1483033804417","data":"NO!
