Re: Equality
no, its not about the west. Its about how much a daughter’s parents are willing to trust and raise her as a strong child than a “typical brown girl”. Whatever I am writing is the story of my parents life. My mother, born and raised in a village. The first one in the whole village to get a college degree, spent her whole life as professional lady (in education field, the whole district knows my mother and calls her as architect of the nation). It was due to my mother that our village first had a middle school for girls, then high and now it has a women college.
I don’t remember a single moment when my mother told me that her parents ask her not to do this thing because she is woman. My father showed and have the same trust in my mother. He has his own business but it doesn’t mean that he overshadows the skills and professional attitude my mom has towards her professional field.
I wouldn’t praise my parents for having this mentality. I would praise my grand parents who raised them with the menatily that the life is name of struggle and in that struggle, there is no gender discrimination. What matters is that you gotta work as a team and respect others.
