WHAT THE MEN OF OLDEN DAYS HAVE TO TELL ABOUT THE WOMEN
From time imemorial women have been subjected to untold miseries and atrocities by men.she is considered only as an instrument to satisfy man"s lust
and sexual satisfaction.Man"s creation of laws,literature, religion,puranas and sastras and even famous scholars and
intelligent men have looked down on women as slaves.
SOCRATES; woman is public property created to satisfy man"s lust and sexual satisfaction.
ARISTOTIL MAN is the Lord, woman his slave.
DEMOSTHENESE;Let us marry a woman to beget a legal progeny,servant maids to satisfy our sexual lust, fall in love with great beauties,
thus spoke the great Greek orator and paved the way for woman"s subjugation.
MANU SMRITI:In her young age father is the girls guardian,attaining puberty and getting married,husband becomes her guardian,and in her
old age sons take control of her.Thus manusmriti erected a great wall around the woman to completely deprive her of her independence.
MANU DHARMA;There is no separate religion for women.By serving her busband only she attains moksha.even if the husband is a begot and scoundral
drunkard,womaniser all rolled into one,the wife should treat him as God.The wife who refuses to serve her husband should be publicly flogged and
left on the streets for street dogs to prey on her.Thus spoke Manu dharma against all women.
LORD BUDDA:Even the Lord refused to accept as desciple his step mother Prajapati Gowtami when she approached him tonsuring her hair and donning the
garb of a sanyasin.after repeated requests from his desciple Anand Lord Buddah relented and accepted her as his desciple,but said to Anand if women are not
allowed the Buddah dharma will last for ever but having allowed a woman in,it will not even last for 500 years.
TOLSTOY;Who presented to the world the famous epic 'WAR & PEACE" treated his wife Sonia just like a slave.His wife who wrote and re-wrote,read and
re-read his manuscript war and peace for more than seven years and mainly instrumental in bring out the book,was never spoken a word of appreciation by
her busband.Her love became so unbearable for Tolstoy that he left her with a note saying "never search for me". when sonia learned that he is crictically ill,
rushed to his side but the man who preached that the world should pardon sinners,never spoke a word of love to his better half of 42 years,till he breathed
his last.
GANDHI:The father of the nation who said the wife is a friend and philosopher to her husband,had a dalit christian as his assistant while practising law in
heart,failing which he angrily ordered her out of his house.when Kasturba stood there with tears falling from her eyes,he opened the front house door and
ordered her to get out !!.
BHARATI;who churned out poems after poems about womanhood treated his wife Chellammal as a Lord would treat his servant!!
CHRISTIAN ITY:Compares Women with household animals and pets. Old testament.
Eval was creatred from Adams bones;because of her Adam tasted the forbidden fruit.women enchanted men with their body and paved the way for his
downfall and became untouchable.She is the depository of all sins.She is the gateway to Hell!!
ISLAM:To certain extend allowed rights to women.Men have certain rights over women and vice versa,but ultimately men"s rights are a step ahead of women.
PURANAS;Women created no sect,nor any purana or ithihasa,nor wrote any law.She never earned any Tatwa.Never in the world any woman has incarnated
as a pious human being and has preached the gods gospel.From eternity the world has been completely dominated by MAN.To satisfy the lust of her leprosy
afflicted husband,Nalayani carried him on her head in a basket to his favourite Mistresse"s house.All women should tread this path to attain purity and chastity.THUS SPOKE PURANAS
