Feminism as an ideology has peaked in U.S. and it will head downwards now. That does not necessarily mean women does not have issues, but they will be tackled without causing misery for children, men and most importantly other women. It is certain that most bra-burning feminists are leading an extremely lonely life in old age after they fought for dismantling the family system when they were young. Back in India, Shobhaa De has started writing against male bashing. Its a positive development that some Indian bloggers(on 17th Aug,2005) have become aware of this situation. She writes:It is going to take a feminist to question the other feminists and show up the plight of men in this society, because any man trying to do so is automatically regarded as a politically incorrect animal who is only interested in his patriarchy and the oppression of women. God forbid, anyone actually acknowledge that patriarchy is only a thing of the third-world countries and not the West. Parents are afraid wondering if the system is discriminating boys Why feminism ended up doing so much disharmony and damage ? The answer is simple. “Overindulgence in single track reductionism, never looking the complete picture”. |
