The Gender Difference Still Exists...


It's halfway through 2022 and we still have gender differences among us. I thought that this world and society would start treating boys and girls, men and women the same way, but No! There are still gender differences among us. If you don’t believe me, let me share a true incident, wait hold on, not one but you can consider many! So, I joined a school with boarding facilities and the first few days felt good and went without a hitch, but soon after I started noticing the differences in the schedule between girls and boys.

Boys had study hour in the morning and we didn’t. We had our dinner earlier than them, which left us with very little time to study in the evening. They had a big playground to themselves whereas, we were shooed to the small one. Boys were wearing shorts and we were not allowed to wear anything short than our ankles. If they think boys will get seduced by seeing our ankles then wouldn't that effect is the same for us? Like girls getting seduced by seeing boys' legs. But no one ever considered that, ever. And the biggest thing that made me mad was that we were not supposed to meet our brothers in the canteen! Can you imagine that? The greatest thing was that they checked our ankles to see if the pants we wore were proper and the shirts were below our butts even while entering the canteen and this was all done for our safety... No offense to anyone, but are boys going to faint just by seeing the sight of our ankles and some skin? I don’t think so, but that’s what society thinks. Let me tell you one thing, there was this one lecturer who only focused on teaching boys and did not even turn an eye toward the girls. I have a question to ask besides this, why do boys get all the freedom and we don’t!? I am not talking only about boys and girls but also the LGBTQ community. Why can't they have their rights? Why can't a person live as they want to live, as a human, or how they want to be? Why do we have to interfere in their lives? Why do people only want a baby boy and why not just a baby who would want to be as it wants to be? Why do women get raped and the rapist is not punished? And if they get pregnant why are they not allowed to abort it? If they abort it, it's illegal but then again rapists are allowed to escape. Does society think that it’s the mistake of women if they get pregnant but has a man ever considered asking a woman permission? Women shouting no, screaming in pain but still carrying on? I don’t think so. I feel ashamed of this society and its unfair treatment. I still have hopes for this society and its improvement. We just have to take action and consider everyone's opinions. Then the world will be a fair place to live.
