I will never know how its like to be a man, the only man I ever spend time is my father.
I grew up hating boys, hating that they are too privileged, hating that everyone wanted me to be a boy, hating that society looked down on my parents for not having male child, in shot I hated them too much.
I never believed when someone said to me that men are not allowed cry, my initial reaction was " it's a drama, all they want is sympathy" but later realized I have never seen a man crying, I have never seen my father shading tears, not even when my grandmother left the earth, he loved her dearly.
Now when I have opened my eyes wide on this issue I can recall many stories where from young age they are encouraged follow this rule, this rule where not crying is manly and swallowing their emotion is called being a man, soothing their wounds with multiple bottle of alcohol is "That's my boy."
MEN AND MAKE UP
I don't want go inside the history to tell you men and women wore the same cloths, jewelries and makeup, I am pretty sure Tipu Sultan wore Palazzos and Rajput,s wore many ornament to look royal.
Today when a man wares makeup he becomes unworthy of being called as a man, where as everybody is OK with Bollywood actors wearing makeup. I remember when I was in class 10th a new boy was enrolled in my class, he had golden earing in his earlobe and my math teacher asked him remove those rings because a boy should not be wearing it.
Dressing up, make up, accessorizing is a personal choice, there is a huge pressure on women to apply make up and huge pressure on men to do contrary.
But I believe the a man's biggest enemy is not the other binary gender but they themselves.
MEN RAPE:
Men can also be a victim of domestic violence, harassment, sexual assault and Rape. This led me to highlight a very famous case called Dastane v.s Dastane, where Mr. Dastane was a victim of cruelty by his wife. There are not many laws to protect from men from these misery.
THE TRUTH
Yes men have it all easy.
I have told you that I hated men too much for too long, I despise them now too because all any body can seen is them treating women an object, I have seen guys showing interest in girls just for the sheer possibility of getting on bed with them. I have suffered enough of harassment, cat calling, bullying and i am not the only one, every female have their own experience.
Men have made other men look like a monster, i know all man not the same but who is the question,
