Dependently Independent: "Equality of opportunity"

The day when passes by give a lot of insight & introspection opportunity. Today what I am going to talk about is a serious issue.

India is tauted to be a an equal opportunity country. Women have been lagging behind and hence the Female Quota came in, but in this rush of supporting one of the genders it deviated a lot from its basic cause.

Equal opportunity means that Male & Female are given equal opportunity to do any task equally, then why is there a discrimination against Male???

The roots of this discussion lies on a the fact that on security check on malls, multiplexes etc, a male has to go through detailed check & body frisking, while a female is just made to pass unchecked.

This is just not what happened once, but perhaps always. On various occasions at Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Pune, Nasik & Chennai.

So why is there a discrimination against males? On a global forum, the greatest threats come from females.

Hence its a paradox, on one side you say "Equal Opportunity" and on the other side you demean the possible opportunity a female caries as a threat. Really India is a land of wonders!!!

People who know me or have been with me on such occasions would know how much i have been concerned about this.

Thanks that the sacrosanct freedom of expression is still available.

Tomorrow will be a new day & I will come out with a new introspected or just stupid things...
