Just A Thought!

If we can remove class dominance

Then why can’t we remove patriarchal dominance?

 

If Marxism can work to some extent

Then so can, feminism!!

  1. Unfortunately, these ‘ism’s’ rarely work. I think that John Lennon had said it best:

    Ev’rybody’s talking about
    Bagism, Shagism, Dragism, Madism, Ragism, Tagism
    This-ism, that-ism, is-m, is-m, is-m
    All we are saying is give peace a chance
    All we are saying is give peace a chance

    That’s what it all comes down to. Peace and love. Great post, Moushmi. Fairness and equality for all.

    1. I am sorry, I try but I fail miserably on taking humor in such cases. I see it this way- when it comes to class differences, as far as I see, these days the “general” people have more problem than ever in grabbing a seat in a decent college or in bagging a job. Giving the people reservations we have, in my opinion, sidetracked the other factors that need to be considered. I don’t know how much sense this makes.
      On the other hand, when it comes to feminism, I agree, it is working, to an extent. However, there is a whole lot of progress to be made in that field. When I say whole lot of progress, I mean in 100 different relations which I cannot even begin to put into words here. The bigger cities have overcome so much in this regard too but even there we are living in a different age for women. And don’t even let me begin on smaller cities and villages. The situation and things that women go through there- well its unspeakable let alone, doable. Yet, it all happens.
      Sorry to have rambled so much!
      On a lighter note, if men are not paying for coffee and foof, then are women paying? Or is it like you pay for yourself, I for myself? Hahaha, need to get into the game to know this one now! Lol..

      1. I agree with both parts of your rambling, and yes these issues are not to be taken lightly, agree there too. But I have not learnt the art of keeping mum when it is warranted and I end up paying for the indiscretion, especially on dates.

Your perception holds importance for me.
