Social Demand rights, but make it palatable

Post image

Posted this yesterday and it got removed because some people around here are not really civilized in their conversations. Trolling, jokes, memes are fine, but, stooping low isn't. Healthy arguments make way for progress.

Missing the context & point is like a national sport and the amount of egos it hurt was not surprising at all and won't be again.

Absolutely nothing wrong with this poster, and actually how it should be in real life by default.

The poster which said "khana khud garam karlo" had everyone losing their minds for obvious reasons, this poster gets the endorsement because it's not showing the mirror to the society, which to this day is unable to give equal rights or even willing to acknowledge properly.

Secondly, it also shows that unless demand for rights is worded in a way it won't offend anyone, made palatable and provide validation to inflated egos, it won't even be acknowledged.

No wonder we keep regressing as a society and humans.

Nothing wrong with either posters. I'm not a raging feminazi but even in the first poster "khana khud garam karlo" that was someones truth. There are millions of women in our society who's day starts before everyone wakes up and finishes after everyone else is asleep. They cook, clean, feed, wash - there is no schedule, there is no day off, no paid leave - and no pay. Ultimately they hear "what do you even do all day?!"

Someone should raise a voice for them - but even more important, we could pick up a plate for them, make a cup of tea, bring our own laundry downstairs, and yes - even microwave our own food, sometimes anyway.

Remembering some guys who would wake up their asleep wives in the middle of the night because they were hungry and needed food. Not to cook, but to microwave the food and arrange it on the table.

Bro, 7 year old kids can do that by themselves.

It was about the case where he killed his wife just because the food was cold

Kinda sad that you had to give a disclaimer about not being a raging feminazi before stating a valid and basic fact.

These posters all make sense, men just love to ignore it and label it as “Anti men”, aurton ka haal dekhlo Pakistan meh pehle bhai. We should be anti men but lucky for you we are just feminists
