IRONY OF EQUALITY
Downloads
Abstract
This article is a run through argument on the ‘Man-outshined’ laws which gives a base understanding of societal Patriarchy that is ill-equipped and has been ruling the roost since time immemorial. A woman being bound within a patriarchal bargain, the cold shoulder attitude and her race of being provoked to adopting the third wave of Feminism speaks volumes of the spoken.
Accordingly, the article explains what Patriarchy is all about, how it originated and how it has affected women to being what they are in today’s age and stage. It’s a pointer to the ‘Feminist’ questions that ought to be answered and remedied. In the course of the brief affair of Feminism and Patriarchy, it shows how there has been a major try towards the tracing of evidence in the courtroom. The stagnation of women’s development is showcased through the promises of Patriarchal laws.
The idea behind the whole criticizing of Patriarchy and its laws is mainly to claim ‘Equality’ and not ‘Superiority’, directingtowards an egalitarian society where both sexes are treated equal. The concept of patriarchy not being new, has gotten framed through feminist thought as an evil that denies existence. Feminism portrays being a breakaway against the so called patriarchal culture which considers the “rule of the father” of prime importance. The article finally rests with a critical analysis of the role of the judiciary through feminist thought and also suggestions and recommendations that would be a remedy to the hues and cries of a woman.
