I think it's in a 'Transition phase'
A few accepted facts are-Physically Men are stronger than women, Mentally both are equal,Emotionally women are stronger than men.How does society relate & use these facts in the institution of a family? Men were sent out to earn & feed, women were to stay back & support them emotionally in every case & in anycase.situation is more or less same today except at Mental level. where a woman's opinion was never asked before now even her opinions are respected.They are given equal education & opportunity to follow the career of their choice.which gives them financial independence & confidence.awareness is much more than before but what is not changed or probably will never change is man's ego. They have been provided with the right of 'protecting' woman & they will execute this forever.π π
2. Do you think male domination (as a father, husband, brother) sometimes interfere in your freedom as individual? Is it suffocating?
sometimes 'yes'when my bro. is allowed to have n no. of girlfriends & I'm not allowed to talk to a boy even on phone at 10pm., when my bro. can surf 'any' sire & my mom is all the time around when I sit on computer,when I read (recently discussed topic) that woman's virginity is more important than man's...etc. etc. we know there are seperate rules in society for both but I guess again rule of 'Protection' applies here.
3. Does young generation (specially men) want to see it as equal or they are happy as it is?
They are atleast pretending to see them as equalπI don't know how far does it hold true in marriage.I think certain facts will never change.butI agree that at least they are looking for a friend in wife with whom they can discuss & plan future,enjoy the present at its best & forget the pains of the past.They are allowing woman to work but still hesitant to help in household work...!may consider/accept the woman's decisions but try their best to say their was the better...
4. What can we do as young generation to change it?
Nothing, listen to them quietly & follow what we think is right,don't hurt their ego but don't lose our identity,there is nothing wrong in letting them feel they are better as long as even we are considered......Mujhe apna alag Asmaan nahin chahiye jab tak mujhe bhi udane mile........!
