Gender Equality- When men and women are given equal rights and opportunities.
[Source-Internet]
You call yourself a feminist
Which means, you raise your voice
For the rights of people,
Irrespective of their gender.
You fight for the rights of women,
You fight for the rights of men,
But don't you think
You have forgotten something?
When you hear "Gender Equality"
What comes to your mind?
"MEN" and "WOMEN" having equal rights
This is what most of us think.
Long ago-
Boys and girls weren't considered similar
Girls were devoid
Of many privileges.
Now, the time has changed
Most women have access
To those opportunities
That our female ancestors lacked!
Now, we see-
Both boys and girls being
Educated as well as Educating.
We see both the genders achieving success
However, the gender
That still lacks
Many rights and opportunities
Are totally FORGOTTEN!
They are trapped in that corner of your
Mind, where unpleasant things persist
They had always knocked at your hearts
For entrance, but sadly, never got a response.
I've seen people fight
Day and night
For the rights and welfare
Of both women and men.
BUT I have never seen
The same number of people
Fight for the right
Of the transgenders!!!
Gender Equality-When people with all the three genders are given EQUAL rights and opportunities.
