As
days go by, my predictions regarding the future of humans, especially the
females and mainly focused of their social stature, (mentioned in my book: The Unsure
Male) seem to be becoming more and more aligned with reality. Events of
significance are taking place one after the other, that too with the pace turning quicker every day.
Take
their attire, for example. Earlier itself a few murmurs were in the air,
surreptitiously at least, about the demeaning dresses females have to wear in
swimming pools, beauty contests and other social gatherings. Now, not only that
all those dresses are going to be done away with, as far as contestants of such
events go, all other females including athletes are required to wear more
‘appropriate’ dresses (whatever that may mean).
Or
take academic restrictions for girl students. For example, see the recent
instructions regarding utilization of library facility, that, it is not to be
used at times that is not one of the prescribed hours. More restrictions are
now being mooted, for time, dress etc., like proscribing sleeveless blouse and skirt.
Of
course, all such impositions cite many incidents, where women or girl students
are subjected to wanton disturbance. Why don’t we see that they are being
constantly subjected to such awful things exactly for this reason, i.e., as an excuse for introducing new restrictions? And these attacks will act as a clarion call for those looking to justify harsher
treatment of females?
