PEOPLE LIKE TO PUT PEOPLE IN BOXES, SOCIETY WANTS US TO DO THINGS ACCORDING TO THEIR WISHES ACCORDING TO THEIR CHOICES. SINCE THE DAY WE ARE BORN WE ARE PUT IN A BOX AND OUR LIFE HAS ALREADY BEEN DECIDED, WE ARE EXPECTED TO MAKE CHOICES, DECISIONS ACCORDING TO A LIST. THIS LIST IS CALLED THE STEREOTYPES.
SINCE THE BIRTH OF A BABY, IF IT'S A BABY GIRL SHE GETS COVERED IN A PINK CLOTH AND IF ITS A BABY BOY HE GETS COVERED IN A BLUE CLOTH. WE ARE SO MUCH STEREOTYPIED WE DON'T EVEN KNOW: WHAT'S WRONG. IT'S LIKE WE HAVE ALREADY INSINUATED THAT BOYS LOVE BLUE AND GIRLS LOVE PINK. IT'S LIKE THERE ARE ONLY TWO COLOURS AND PEOPLE ARE EXPECTED TO FIT IN ACCORDING TO THESE COLOURS. PINK BEING A COLOUR CLOSE TO RED RESEMBLES A ROMANTICISM, EMOTIONS AND LOVE AND IN A WAY WOMEN ARE SEEN AS AN EMOTIONAL PERSON. IF YOU ARE A GIRL YOU HAVE LIKE PINK COLOUR AND IF YOU ARE A BOY YOU HAVE WEAR CLOTHES IN BLUE SHADES AND NOT IN PINK YOU CANNOT LIKE PINK OR ELSE YOU WILL BE CONSIDER AS A MAN.
NOT ONLY ARE WOMEN STEREOTYPIED BUT MEN TOO. IN CHILDHOOD WHEN BOYS USED TO CRY OWING TO ANY REASON, THEY WERE TOLD NOT TO CRY LIKE A GIRL AND NOT SHOW ANY EMOTIONS AS CRYING AND SHOWING EMOTIONS ARE NOT MANLY ENOUGH. HOWEVER WHEN THEY GROW UP NOW THEY ARE EXPECTED TO SHOW EMOTIONS LIKE LOVE, CARE AND AFFECTION, LIKE HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO EXPECT FROM THEM WHEN HALF OF THEIR LIFE THEY ARE TAUGHT SHOWING EMOTIONS IS A SIGN OF A WEAK, ITS LIKE CHANGING THE SYLLABUS BEFORE THE EXAM.
WOMEN ARE TAUGHT TO HATE EACH OTHER AND ARE FORCED TO COMPARE OURSELVES WITH OTHER. WHEN WILL THE SOCIETY LEARN WE ARE SAME HUMAN BEINGS BUT WITH A DIFFERENT VISIONS, DIFFERENT DREAMS, DIFFERENT OPNIONS, DIFFERENT CHOICES. IF A GIRL DOESN'T LIKE TO DRESSUP OR DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO DO GIVE HERSELF A MAKEOVER SHE IS GIVEN TAGS OF A LESBIAN OR OF A TOMBOY AND SAME HAPPENS WITH BOYS, IF A BOY LIKES TO PAINT HIS NAILS OR KNOWS HOW GIVE HIMSELF A MAKEOVER OR LIKES TO WEAR DRESSES HE IS CALLED AS A GAY OR ACCORDING TO THEM HIS MASCULINITY SHATTERS OR HE IS NOT MAN ENOUGH.
FROM A VERY SMALL AGE, MEN ARE TAUGHT TO BE STRONG AND NOT VULNERABLE OR THEY ARE EXPECTED TO GO OUT AND EARN FOR THE FAMILY BUT DEEP DOWN LIKE EVERYONE ELSE THEY WANT ALSO LOVE, CARE AND AFFECTION BUT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO ASK FOR IT. ON THE OTHER HAND WOMEN'S ONLY GOAL IS TO GET MARRIED AND TAKE CARE OF CHILDREN AND SIT AT HOME AND COOK FOR THE FAMILY. HOWEVER IF SHE DECIDES SOMETHING ELSE OR WANTS TO LIVE HER LIFE ON HER OWN TERMS THEN IS SHE IS CONSIDER AS A GOOD OR IDEAL WOMAN.
THE MOST AMAZING THINGS THAT CAN HAPPEN TO A HUMAN BEING WILL HAPPEN TO YOU IF YOU JUST LOWER YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
