Woman & Loss Of Respect

Body shape, charm and dress are what unfortunately portray a woman in our contemporary society rather than character and devotion.  Women are glorified for their sexuality rather than moral and spiritual values. The role of women has been prominent in the previous decades where they were accorded due respect and status but the contrary is being witnessed in this millennium with an alarming decrease in the level of civility for women.

The question which has to be answered follows

Who is to be blame for this downgrading image of woman in the society?

From my outlook, you will be astonished to note that man cannot entirely be blamed for this happening – woman holds an equal share of this blame.

The rate of sexual and moral harassment, most commonly noted in workplaces, is increasing at an alarming velocity worldwide. On the other hand, rape and incest form the headlines of umpteen newspapers across the globe. You will be shocked if you will search for the increasing rate of prostitution throughout the world. Extra-marital affair is destroying homes every day.

The above-mentioned happening contributes to the downgrade of women in the society as they are largely blameful for these happening.

Media and the Copy-Paste (Stereotyping) culture is one of the cause to the erosion of idealism of women. Freedom is another factor contributing to this downgrade, if abused. There are various other factors contributing to this diminishing respect of women in the society.

I came across this quote in the Rig Veda

“The home has, verily, its foundation in the wife”

I will not elaborate on the above-quote but I will leave my readers with one question:

Is this still happening with the increasing number of extra-marital affairs?

I understand that man and woman both have to be blamed for loss of respect and status nowadays but I would affirm that women are more largely to be blamed and this is not a surprising statement. This is a post I would really appreciate to lay more emphasis on after witnessing the downgrade and lack of respect of women but I would prefer to leave you all with a deep question:

If you are a woman, what is more important to you – your purity or your societal network or your favorite movies?

If you are a man, what is more important to you – your sister/mother/wife or a glass of beer with your friends?

The questions above might seem simple but it hides a more detailed answer to this post
