Facing our Ultra-Conservative Society

Facing our Ultra-Conservative Society

The eternal truth of the society that may never change

A girl in her 20's was working as an employee in a company for a year. One day she was called upon by the boss and was asked to resign with no arguments.
Lately, the company had been in losses. She was supposed to be the key person in the recent project but due to some personal reasons, she was not able to give 100% at her job. She did what she could to protect the company.
A colleague of hers was the only person who listened to her problems and helped her cope with them.
People around them didn't like it, and then they told the big man who was actually just blaming everyone at the job but himself did nothing. (Nobody knew how he earned)
People made naive judgments about them being together and they were having a relationship. And because of the relationship stress, she wasn't able to do her job properly. People were also jealous of her but that simple judgment cost the girl her job whom she was giving her full strength without taking a leave along with her personal reasons.

Dealing with it

"A girl and a boy can never be a friend." The most fucked up belief of the older generations I have heard in my life. Not just the older generations but due to them even people your age has started judging people. I am not saying this is the only thing that comes under narrow mindedness but also many things come under this such as:-

  • "Many of the girls think of the boys as perverts."
  • "A girl cannot wear short clothes, this shows how bad character she has."
  • There are so many social evil in our society till now as the dowry system, early marriage, etc
  • And there is much evidence, not just this.

And by this I can just say that first of all there can never be gender equality and people will always judge you but you don't have to stop doing anything. But to deal with it is to forgive and accept this.

Conclusion

  • Forgiving is the most powerful weapon one can possess. When people hear this they panic or they get confused about how to live freely if the society has its own rules. But By forgiving you exclude yourself from all the tension they gave you. Just like I said you don't have to stop doing what you were before. Many people I have seen in my life when blamed for something they tend to act guilty of it and then stay away from what they had in mind.


  • Accepting that those people are like this and think like this only. People like them whether it is older or younger are those who have lived a life through a single perspective like seeing the sun through-hole or they depend on others for information of right and wrong. They may be jealous, and by accepting this reality you become aware of these people.


  • But there is one thing which are social evils like the dowry system, child marriage which should be prohibited at every stage of life. I hope you guys never say yes to these types of beliefs. Rather than protesting without any evidence that it exists we should actually look for opportunities where we can educate people about this and also raise our voice whenever necessary.


  • We can change ourselves on an individual level. Individuality can be 100 percent effective if one gives a fuck about it. Somebody told me how can we save electricity if everyone is wasting it exponentially. Well, the simple answer is by changing yourself first.
