A sad, bitter and unfortunate truth is that even in this age and century, women are constantly harassed. Not only in Villages but we also see this ‘trend’ in cities as well. Women are constantly harassed, physically and sexually abused. Physical and Sexual abuse though can be detected, but what about the mental abuse? This abuse can neither be detected nor be fought against UNLESS, there is some help.
The primary reason for this harassment is the low-life and preposterous thinking that a women’s place is kitchen and the bedroom and a wife is only supposed to cook, clean, please her husband and give birth to a son. Unfortunately this thinking is still prevalent in many villages and also the people living in cities who have turned to cities to earn their daily bread; it’s not only them, but even few city dwellers do have this temperament as well. They assume that a Women is weak and cannot look after herself at all. When a woman protest against this attitude, all they get assaults and rape and acids are thrown onto their pretty faces –All this to “show” them their “places”.
