Regarding women
Moontaha Muneera Dept of English Chittagong University
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Rubaiyat Hossain for her wonderful feature titled "I know I am a woman' published in the July 1 issue of SWM. Apparently, it was a write-up against male domination, but I think, it was quite on behalf of women. According to Rubaiyat, "Every woman needs their third eye open." Yes, I also think so. The incidents happening around us must be observed with our third eye. Then it will be clear to us how we are being deprived and exploited. I always think that most of our women cannot understand what they are subjected to but they are able to understand that they are weak, vulnerable, stupid, emotional and irrational. Because these things are pushed into their mind from a very early age. Moreover, they also believe the decisions or activities carried out by the males are always good and if the females try to do anything, then it will bring a lot of sufferings. So, they always keep themselves away from making any important decisions of their family. But I think if men change their outlook to some extent, then life will be easier for women. In this respect, I want to say that men must treat women as their partner not follower, their colleague not servant.
