Hello Hemangini! I’d firstly like to thank you and praise you because not many people express their concerns, especially the ones related to their respect, at a social platform. When men try to lay their hands on you, you must not only hope for bad things to happen to them but do something about it. Like, shout at him, slap him and tell people around you about it. I’m sure you’ll get instant help and relief! 🙂
That is correct. But people are coming together, we have activists, feminists, rebels and so on voicing their rage and revenge.
And emotional too. But what can be done if our parents behave this way? Can we raise our voice against someone who have raised us for more than twenty years? Can we counter-argue them and not fall for their emotional ploy? Can we fight for our freedom? Our passion? Our life?
Abusers may apologize profusely for their actions or try to convince the person they are abusing that they do these things out of love or care. However, violence and control always intensifies over time with an abuser, despite the apologies. What may start out as something that was first believed to be harmless (e.g., wanting the victim to spend all their time only with them because they love them so much) escalates into extreme control and abuse (e.g., threatening to kill or hurt the victim or others if they speak to family, friends, etc.). domestic violence does not always manifest as physical abuse. Emotional and psychological abuse can often be just as extreme as physical violence. Lack of physical violence does not mean the abuser is any less dangerous to the victim, nor does it mean the victim is any less trapped by the abuse. Girls! We should be very careful if we have a partner or intend to have one in the future. I don’t know what ‘control over a girl’s life by ones parent called’ but I’m definitely a victim of it. No going out after four, no talking with guys, no going anywhere alone, not even in the company of friends, no nothing!
Whaat!!? Is that what you think? Why don’t such things happen in foreign countries where people dress the way they want to, where there are no set boundaries? Do you have an explanation for this?
Also, this not only happens in buses, when ywe walk on streets, we get the notion of someone following us. We try to walk faster and get going as Doon as possible. Which means we are living under constant fear !
Priyanka, when you feel something is going to happen with you, seek help of the people around you. I’m sure there are people who are willing to help and can be trusted.
Disagree! Completely disagree! We live in a liberal country. We have the freedom of expression. Men should have control over their senses and especially their thoughts. If you ask girls to cover up, ask guys to shut their eyes.
Reynu, it is more sad to first demand something and then plead for it and in the end, be content with your dreams and wishes. 😭😵😬
