The Real Condition of Indian Women

India is probably a free country for its men but its definitely not a free country for women.Women in India are not discriminated against by the society they are discriminated in their own homes.Yes, India is a beautiful country and i think hindusium is probably the only religion that worships a female goddess (there might be other religions too that i'm not aware of).But there is also a practice in many hindu homes that i really hate. A woman,when menstruating, is not allowed to go to the temples and touch holy books etc. In some homes women don't even enter the kitchen during those days.I seriously think this is humiliating to me as a women. I mean it was god who created me and it was god who GIFTED me with periods.And if i we to be "impure" during my periods then why would god create such a thing in the first place.Many many households also prefer a boy child to a girl and a family is often considered incomplete without a boy child.Why? would you please tell me what is there in a boy that is not there in a girl except probably that fact that a boy is physically stronger which most just use to rape women.
When a women is raped she is looked down upon by the society . Most of them blame the girl saying she must have tried to get the boy's attention and instigate him.Well there is case of a women who was raped at the age of 16 by about 42 men.That women is now 32 and the accused still roam free.The society and her neighbors avoid talking to her family.Her dad said that they prefer to stay indoors and the people don't talk to them and look at them differently.I don't know if you (the girl-rape survivor) is reading this but if you are my hats off to you.It takes great courage to be go through what you have gone through and still be strong.
The  recent Delhi rape case in which the girl was raped in a moving bus and an actual iron rod was inserted in her vagina. Her was raped , striped and then thrown out of the bus and left to die.She was taken to the hospital but then she couldn't survive.Some call her Damini and some India's brave heart.Either way she is a real fighter.Although she may not be with us anymore she has opened the eyes of today's youth.I'm glad and i believe she might be too to see the whole of India's youth asking for justice and stronger rape laws.
I hope the laws get implemented. I hope  women in India get the status they deserve . Let there not be a women who thinks that she was cursed and therefore born a women. Let us all be happy to be a women , let men respect women and may every woman receive justice in the eyes of law, in the eyes of god.
