Working women-beware
Yes-we have come a long way baby. From Choola and cooking range to MNC
and LPG (Liberalisation, Privatisation and Globalisation).But at what cost! If
we cannot go to work and get back safely in one piece, If we have to battle
with glass cielings,if we have to handle family pressures...the price is too
much to pay for the fundamental right of choosing a career.
Parents want their daughters to be married at the earliest so they don’t
have to keep watch over their safety. Women want to find their place in the sun
but the heat from all around is scorching their ambition. If there were better
public transport systems, maybe the commute hazards can be taken care of.
We need a social mindset change. Women should spend more time on learning
self defense tactics than in beauty parlors. They should be aware of their
surroundings and sense danger. To a large extent, our safety is in our hands by
doing thesensible things.
The incidents of danger are perhaps rare considering the number of women
who work. But that does not justify their possibility. Like customer beware!
Working women too should beware.
