Women need Better Life
WOMEN NEED BETTER LIFE (Harpreet Kaur, hkaur10985@gmail.com ) Without women in our lives, the world just wouldn’t be the same. Jesus was brought into the world by a strong woman and, even at the beginning of humanity; God put a woman on Earth to accompany man. According to holy Guru Granth Sahib, "SO KYON MANDA AAKHIYE-JIT JAMMEH RAJAN" which means woman has been a birth giver to many a Saint, great Kings and Emperors, how she may be sinner?. Every religion in world tells importance of women but it's not easy to live the life women in this world. In her daily life, even in this 21st century she suffers from sexism. When she needs work, than she hears, she is a female, it’s not possible for her to do this heavy work; go madam go, do your house chores. When she stand for her rights or something else she hear oh hello are you witless, there's no need to be in this go and do your work. She works same as her male colleague, same number of hours but she is not paid with same wage. This is worldwide problem. You know what’s the depressing thing of today’s world millions of girls/ women being subjected to harmful practices such as gender-biased sex selection, wage gap, child marriage, domestic violence, dowry, rape. She suffers with sexual harassment at workplace. •	It is estimated that 35 per cent of women worldwide have experienced either physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence or sexual violence by a non-partner (not including sexual harassment) at some point in their lives. However, some national studies show that up to 70 per cent of women have experienced physical and/or sexual violence from an intimate partner in their lifetime. •	Adult women account for nearly half (49 per cent) of all human trafficking victims detected globally. Women and girls together account for 72 per cent, with girls representing more than three out of every four child trafficking victims. •	It is estimated that there are 650 million women and girls in the world today who were married before age 18. •	At least 200 million women and girls aged 15-49 have undergone female genital mutilation in the 30 countries with representative data on prevalence. In most of these countries, the majority of girls were cut before age five. More than 20 million women and girls in just seven countries (Egypt, Sudan, Guinea, Djibouti, Kenya, Yemen and Nigeria) have undergone female genital mutilation by a health care provider. •	Approximately 15 million adolescent girls worldwide have experienced forced sex at some point in their life. •	One in 10 women in the European Union report having experienced cyber-harassment. •	Eighty-two per cent of women parliamentarians who participated in a study conducted by the Inter-parliamentary Union in 39 countries across five regions reported having experienced some form of psychological violence while serving their terms.

This is continued to be practiced despite laws to counter them. In countries like India, parents are afraid when their girls step out from home, because of these things. Not only in India but also in other countries, but I will mention India as here honor or respect of women means lot to family. If some mishappening happened to the lady of the house they don’t get equal respect in the society. If women get rapped, culprit used to say she was inviting him, instead of feeling ashamed for his sins. Why? She wore short dress- most heard answer. Female feticide: - Birth of girl child is not welcomed; people cherish to have a boy child, they celebrate. Girl child is killed when she was fetus, abortion, game finished. Sometimes because of technical error or report she takes birth but her so called parents kill her as infant. This is our society. Sex ratio of India is 924 females per 1000 males. Have anyone thought what is happening?? I don't know what you peep think, but according to me only illiteracy, boy desire is not the reason behind it; the crime, the harassment female feels every day in her in every corner of the world is also a main reason. Even women is rising star of today's world in every department but male ego will not consider them good in fields other than house chores. There is a need to raise voice against these crimes, she needs a better life style, she has a right to move freely without any fear at any time in any dress. She has a right to education. She has right choose her own partner, her partner has no right on her body against her will. She has a right of equal wages. How people can forget Rani Laxmi Bai, Mai Bhago, Marie Curie, Rosa Parks, Virgin Mary, Mother Teresa and many more. How they can think women are made to do only housework? At one side they do worship of women denotes them as Saraswati Maa, Laxmi etc. other side they rape, they kill, they discriminate them. It’s time to wake up, to aware people about power of women, she is not going to lose the battle of her life because of this shit people. But people should also know that she is human being like them. Let's unite, and build a better world for her.
