Tum Mere Kiya Ho AT # 2 - Page 44

I abandoned it a couple of time before but right now I am in Mikhaal's fever...so that's how I endured the show- though skimmed it generously and finished watching the entire show in less than 3 hours...:)

That's the whole thing...For generations they convinced women that it is all up to them to have a successful and happy household and the only way to do it is just be patient with men and accept them and everything that they dole out to you...I bet these lessons also were taught by men first and the women folk followed like goat without even questioning...Its one thing not to question but women also have crab mentality...If they are going down they would rather drag the other women along with them too...The older women of the house made sure that the younger women stayed within the rule of the house and not raise their heads above it...For that, they made sure the women don't go out nor get formal education...But if God forbid, a woman did get out of these shackles, they made sure to ostracize that woman and stone her in full public view so that the other women can get a good lesson never to question the system...I am so glad all this is coming to an end...There is still a long way, but it is indeed coming to an end...

DES is about one such woman who raised above the system without rebelling and deviating from it...She sure is an inspiration for the women of any generation who are being oppressed...
