World of Women Warriors
Here, I intend to make a sense of awareness among modern generation to understand how essential is that breaking the bridle of culturally programmed devilish strategies, which are seriously affecting the psychosocial, and physiological well being of a particular group of people, as well as very crucially among almost every women all over the world. Women equality, is one of the highlight social issue which is still remain as a question mark, nobody can find an appropriate solution for the problem, but it is clear that these process is progressively moving forward. But the problem is that, even though how many protection is ensuring for a women by the society and constitution the male dominancy sometimes violated all the boundaries of these rules, and then even being punished in court. Even society can also be isolate such people who tend to abuse a women madly in public or any other onlooking situations. whatever may be it is also still happening progressively, same as the progressive process of women emancipation. A kind of social mask may also be really supporting male dominance, because some evils will be there in front of the movements holding up flag of renaissance. To be fighting against dominant male it is purposeful activity and can have critical thinking. Because, actually both male and female are not really aware of what is happening in their mind, and also not aware about in what way they should build a strong female generation, that is what is really their problem. But, the female should realize that they are fighting against this only when an incident occur in society. This kind of activity cannot be changing attitudes which will make inconsistency in between both female's and male's behaviour and thought. Because of the impact of male dominance on female depends on the traditional practices had been culturally programed and is synchronized with some unconscious behaviours of people of the modern world too. therefore, in this modern society also have tendency of the expression of emotional outbursts may come when women they stands beyond customs.
Is religion influencing male dominance
All existing religion are considering male Devine character is as the supreme authority, and female is as a supreme part of God is known as Goddess. All religion are insisting to strictly follow the fair and restricted duties of both male and female which extend to truthfulness and perpetration. In a nutshell, for god, when going for a deep analysis, it can be seen that, both male and female divine characters are considered to be equal, but having equal responsibility, which are different based on nature of various dominant abilities. But these are very essential for nurturing the cosmos. As it discussed in the above paragraph that, hunter attitude in male and, in female it sees gatherer attitude also be manifested. In which, the use of physical strength among male, for hunting resources, food, shelter, and family security. but in women, it is their nurturing and gathering ability, such as nurturing offspring, collecting keeping resources, caring for family etc. are the essential, and independent characteristics, which separate male and female. because of that, it can be clear that, both male and female are equally considered. when closely looking ancient ages it is difficult to find inequality, even in the concepts of god also it can see that female is the essential part. while going for the religious scriptures or stories we can see lots of inconsistencies between what god does and human does, such as having more wives and husbands versus chastity; swayamvara versus arranged marriage; lord krisna and his girlfriends versus panchali and pandavas; therefore, it is clear that female is taking decision for her life, swayamvara was following instead of arranged marriage. so it can be observed as religion means opinion from a devine character is carried out by human being or priests (risi, maha risi). so it is clear that man made male dominant culture or beliefs.
Is women a bridled horse?
After the pre-agricultural period itself the societal development came to a framework of thought or learning pattern among hunters and gatherers as to live in a network and understood how important it is for the security of man kind, and along this change, social rules were formulated step by step considered to be based on different crises occurred, or events that had impact on social well being, and harmful unpleasant activity from a particular individual in a group and then the rules were strictly followed by each individual in society.
Is there any animal on earth deserving bridle? definitely the answer is "No". Why human with higher order mechanism, found bridle? the answer is to control or direct another animal. Similarly, this cultural programming has been formulated to control and defeat other human to use for their various purposes. In the context of hunter and gatherer era, the male became more dominant based on their physical energy, on female who loves or depends them. Here the supreme authority is hunter, he might possessed one or more women for mating, and nurturing their offspring. To avoid their female from another male, they might have used their might. But the emotions like love or lust to another male, or disgust and anger to their own partner etc might have influenced the mind of female and they might have to flee, or avoid family life with their current male. This might have tended man to bridled the emotions of their female partners, to ensure dominancy over them.
The Renaissance and Modern Society
The time of renaissance was the window opened towards a new, emancipatory, and progressive cultural development by questioning and fighting against traditional mal practices such as slavery, discrimination to women, child marriage, restriction to marriage of widow, untouchability, caste discrimination, colour discrimination etc. However, throughout the root to the development towards the modern society the gender inequality alone hadn't been changed among all the community even though the revolutionaries fought as maximum, as they can.
The modern society considers both male and female are equal, the constitution ensure their rights, and when we look through the binocular of constitution it is difficult to detect any inequality, but the concern is that, women are not totally came out from the impact of cultural programming, and so majority of they are still being weak. As considered to be the evolutionary perspective, from the hunter and gatherer personality, according to the need for change of mankind, it can be seen that, the modern society is so far from life style. accordingly the overt changes of behaviour, personality, socioeconomic status, dressing, intellectual ability, individual strengths, food pattern and equal opportunity and responsibility are designed a new culture.
But the deepest psychological, covert, changeless and concreate culturally programmed personality traits are still being and unconsciously controlling even a few ,or a majority of people in the modern society too, the fact is that, if male was the only programmer of ancient male dominant society then now it is running a collaborated effort of both male and female for the programming of building a new culture in the modern society, but for that also we can see the inconsistencies. these inconsistencies made conflicts bet ween various way, lets see how it is, we can classify the attitude changes in both male and female holding traditional beliefs and progressive thoughts.
1. Male v/s Female
The inconsistency between thought and behaviour of both male and female, in which male are holding their culturally programmed beliefs and feeling proud to be stay dominant than female. similarly, female also holding culturally programmed beliefs then stay depended on a dominant male, and feeling proud to being under their dominant male. This will make conflict when the customs are violated from their children, relatives, and others in the society. Here female concerns that, she should not hurt the dominant male, but for male, he may or may not hurt the female, this is not a problem even do so. But, inter personal problems are very low because of sacrificing ability of female as well as both of them holds same beliefs, even though they are experiencing dissonance.
2. Male v/s Male
In which, the conflict occur in two group of male, one group hold culturally programmed beliefs, and other group who hold progressive thought. Here the first group, when they engage in modern society, the modern thoughts and behaviours can be seen as unacceptable, and occasionally tend to having problems with other male, and similarly they tend to avoid the unacceptable situation to reduce their dissonance. But for the second group, when they engage in modern society, they would come to involve in conversation with people who held these culturally programmed beliefs, especially with people from their family, community, or religion. But, their attitude about modern society would be questioned, and then pressure from such authority will be made them adjust to be with society beyond their dissonance.
3. Female v/s Female
In which, the inconsistency between thought and action of female in three groups, one group hold culturally programmed beliefs and the other one group is holding progressive thoughts and final one group is of neutral but like to be free. The external and internal pressure is too high on first groups, that is, the female who hold culturally programmed beliefs may be having conflict when they come to do any activity or behaviour for loveable one, or do something through the blackmailing by someone. But in the second group of female are wish to being free and to do what she likes to do, but they are also be persuaded and conquered by the emotional blackmailing or aggressive behaviour from their family members and society, they are managing their internal and external pressure. The final group of female who hold progressive thought may come to face threatening from family, ethnic group, and society. Even though, this group is fighting with their dissonance, and effectively changing their attitude, so the internal conflict is too low, while competing with the external pressure, because of they are totally came out from culturally programmed beliefs.
This means that, people of modern society should be changed the system, and uninstall the traditional system which is culturally programmed, install the latest version programmed by constitution and progressive thought, unless doing this, the software for gender equality will never be working in traditional operating system, which will make inconsistency again, crimes will increase, and the society will collapse.
Even though the people of modern society seems to be developed, the hunter and gatherer personality is ruling both male and female who are unable to adapt to the modern society. partiality, discrimination, and false prestige are the malicious viruses and have been gradually spreading in the modern society too. The rules are violated because of these viruses, therefor, dominant male having more power over society, or a women or a poor male when their behaviour came beyond the desire of dominant male will tend to harm these people very cruel, female may raped, harassed, and even being the prey of coldblooded murders. Again it can be seen that different examples such as domestic violence, divorces, and suicides among both male and female in the modern society. So the dominant hunter personality trait of male in psychosexual behaviour are the serious problem, and this was conditioned through traditional, cultural practices, and customs, therefore, it is expressing male dominance in this modern society too. So the woman warrior who desires a complete emancipation should start practice reduce your dissonance between thought and actions, if you are a female adolescent, remember one thing, if your parents are having the culturally programmed beliefs, better you take an intelligent approach, instead of the nihilistic behaviour. Your aim should not only about choosing desirable mate, instead of that, you should also experience the world independently, fly over the sky, and you should go anywhere without fear, you should realize that, you also have equal responsibility to run this society safe. So to change society is the first task for you, because it can be consider male dominance and female dependence as serious personality disorder and so the woman warriors are the real therapists for both male and female to manage the disorder. So as a dialogue said by the famous actor, Mohan Lal, in the movie ' Manichitra thazhu' that, "I am going to break all conventional theories of psychiatry" you also have to take purposeful and strong decisions, and implement it carefully, you could provide helping hand for coming female generation feel right freedom like male. You will definitely get unconditional supports from people who hold progressive thought.
