Why are old, grey men not capable of staying away from the rights of women?

The world is changing into a hostile place. Hostile for everyone? No. Despite all the old, grey men who whine about the ‘cancel culture’ that prevents them from saying the things they have said for 70 years, its still old, grey men who decide in this world. I am not always in favor of cancelling opinions, however, the world has always changed. Luckily - we can imagine the conversation in the Middle Ages where someone would discover the toilet and the sewage system, and would find opposition from others about this ridiculous new idea. That counts for ideas too. 70 years ago, in The Netherlands women could not go shopping without a signature of their father or husband. Only 150 years ago, black people were considered slaves. Things have changed and a lot of these changes were, luckily, in favor of the people who needed these changes most. But in this time, it seems as if old people want to grab the power back. The Netherlands have a conservative government, more worried about ‘the right to barbecue’ than climate change, the UK chose Boris Johnson as its Prime Minister, Hungary elected a party that fights lgbti-rights and the US did a pretty serious experiment with a leader who was conservative, right-wing and crazy. 

The cartoon above, made in Egypt (https://cartoonmovement.typepad.com/.a/6a014e5f5d3c7c970c01b8d2a5d648970c-750wi) makes absolutely clear that the things that men take for granted, like showing of their body everywhere, can lead to danger for women. The same situation in which a man is oerfectly safe, will make a woman be very much unsafe.

Despite all the political realities, in fact most people are pretty progressive when it comes to things as women rights. Most people want to fight climate change. A lot of people are in favor of helping migrants, of giving lgbti people more rights and safety. And, a lot of people want to give more rights to women as well. And this remains very much needed. 

But democracy is still dictated by the few. Even if the majority of the Americans is in favor of the right of abortion, the Supreme Court might make an end to this. The way in which American conservatives deal with abortion is frankly disgusting. These rules are not meant to safe lives. If that was the case, it would be a better option to forbid weapons. Also, in my opinion, a life is not just a heartbeat. A life is a chance to make something of it. A woman who was been raped, or gets pregnant by an accident or is pregnant of a kid that will never have a good life due to a handicap, will not be able to give her kid a real life. Especially victims of rape are suffering a mayor blow. Of course, this happens by the same people who also think that if they dress sexy, they are almost guilty of their own rape. It’s enraging, this logic. The rules that are being made in this world, make it impossible for women to be who they want to be, without fearing for men to rape them and take their right of abortion away from them. 

I don’t want to go into why I think that abortion should be a right. Others can explain that much better than I can. But I do need to express my absolute anger about the way that women rights are treated around the world. 

In this graph, we clearly see the support for abortion. Only 32% of the Americans (according to this poll, so of course we have to take it with a grain of salt) want to further limit the right to abortion. And we need to understand, that this right is already under conquest. The case of Texas makes this absolutely clear. A minority rules the majority, because of their way of thinking, because of rules that were made to favor them. 

But also in The Netherlands, abortion is always a difficult subject. Some parties, that are needed in coalitions, are against it. In the Dutch law, you still commit an abortion. Of course, there is a right to it, but its still punishable by law. It would not take much to change that back. Not that a majority wants that, but a majority in parliament is not the same as a majority in the country. Lobbies of old, grey man are often stronger than the majority. And that is disgusting. 

Roe v Wade, and the possible overturning of it by the Supreme Court, is example number so-many of men worldwide trying to gain back the control that they always had and never lost, but sometimes seem to have to give away a bit to young people, with new fresh ideas, and even worse, women and minorities. Taking away rights of people has nothing to do with democracy. Its disgusting.

Malala Yousafzai Posted On Instagram About Her Fight For Girls’ Education.

By: Natileesblog

Date: June 7th,2023 around 9:43pm

Image of Malala Yousafzai joining International Development Sercretary Justine Greening in London talking about girls education/credit to Simon Davis/DFID'.

Activist Malala Yousafzai posted on instagram a few hours ago about her recent trip to Brazil a month ago for encouraging improvements for school education and experiences.

With the following:

“ I am often asked how I stay motivated in my fight for girls’ education. Last month’s trip to Brazil is the perfect answer. I spent nearly a week travelling throughout this beautiful country, hearing from girls who are determined to learn and the education advocates who are helping them realise their dreams.

In Recife, Black, Indigenous and quilombola girls told me about their efforts to improve learning in their communities, like Gabrielle whose Facebook post about how her school wasn’t providing meals or water caught the eye of the local education secretary, who was able to fix the issue.

At a school in Cabo de Santo Agostinho, girls shared stories of overcoming harassment and abuse and how participating in training programs from @MalalaFund partners helped them to find confidence to speak out about the problems they faced.Deyvilla told me how she learned how policy works: “We made demands about how to improve things in our communities”.

She also thank other organisations promoting increase in girls education,inclusivity,safety, and funds in Brazil and how much more they will be able to achieve.Like the Centro de Cultura Luiz Freire, Anaí, Blogueiras Negras, Centro das Mulheres do Cabo, Coletivo Mangueiras, and Grupo Curumim.

She ended her post with:

“ I left Brazil feeling energised. These meetings remind me that there are so many people in every corner of this world with the same mission: to create a world where every girl can learn and lead. When we are united in our fight, we will accomplish amazing things for girls everywhere. Until next time, obrigada por tudo🇧🇷”.

Matter of fact this isn’t also the first time Malala visited Brazil as she visited five years ago on her birthday.

Malala Yousafzai was one of the youngest person to win a noble peace prize in 2014 for her accomplish ments in supporting child rights.

She wrote a blog under a false name “Gul Makai” to BBC called “Diary of a Pakistanian Schoolgirl” about the harsh realities living in Taliban.

She act encouraged girls rights in education from the taliban forcing girls to quit school.

Yousafzai experienced being shot near her temple at the age of 15 and miraculous survived after.

Representing her fight for rights.

She has realeased books throughout the years:

I Am Malala:The Girl Who Stood Up For Education And Was Shot By The Taliban (2013)

I Am Malala:How OneGirl Stood Up For Education And Changed The World (2014)

Malala’s Magic Pencil (2017)

We Are Displaced (2019)

Sometimes, Salma bursts in tears as she struggles with her homework. She works hard to catch up after spending years out of school because her family was displaced twice. Less than 2 years ago, when she moved to Mazar, she could not read or write. Now 13, Salma goes to middle school with her two sisters, hoping to become “a doctor that treats people for free”. She knows poverty too well herself. I followed Salma, Omedah (from Faryab, shown before) and Sakina for @lemondedesadosmag to show French readers their age what it means being an Afghan teenage girl one year after the Taliban return. The three live in different places and face different challenges. For Salma, it is poverty and the fear of not being good enough in class. She lives in a house much too small for the family of 18. Her grandfather sleeps in the hall under a mosquito net, sick, but too poor to see a doctor. Her brothers had had to stop school to work—one sells vegetables, the other works as a cleaner in a hospital. Her father has lost his job as a tailor. Still, the family does its best so the three daughters can have a different future. “I don’t want my daughters to be illiterate like me, I want them to study as much as they can” says their mother Diana. Salma will not give up. She follows a very tight schedule starting at 4am, which include, of course, a lot of homework, helping her mother with housework and cooking, but also jumprope—“to become taller”. Note - girls do not keep their faces covered during class—they did this time because of the. #Balkh #Afghanistan Photo & text: Elise Blanchard @eliseblchrd.

          The Taliban have closed universities for female students, the Ministry of Higher Education said on Tuesday in Afghanistan. "You are all informed to immediately implement the mentioned order of suspending education of females under further notice," read a letter issued by the Ministry to all goverment and private universities. A spokesman for the Education Ministry also tweeted the letter, with the ban meaning that girls and women have been effectively locked out of classrooms after 6th grade. The ban on higher education comes less than three months after thousands of women took university entrance exams across the country, with many aspiring to become teachers or medical practitioners. Universities had remained open to women since the Taliban swept back into power in August 2021, so long as they attended classes separated from male students. The Taliban-led government in Afghanistan also reportedly specified subjects that women could choose to study at their universities.

I unfortunately happened to open a newspaper today and yesterday the first thing i see is an articles on molestation, and sexual assault. This comic is for awareness and common sense which clearly is lacking in our society. I have never posted something political on my art account but this is something I want spread awareness about.

It's not about the clothes, it's all about the mind set, you can't possibly blame a 7 year old child for wanting to dress how she wants and keeping that in mind you can't blame anyone for dressing how they want. "they asked for it". Bro, if they asked for it, they would just ask for it. The moment you find fault in that, there is something wrong with the way you see people.

i would appreciate it if the viewers could re-blog it or even like it to spread awareness <3

"Progressive women, wanting lightness, comfort, and ease of motion joined the "rational dress movement" and formed a society that protested against tightly fitted corsets and heavily weighted skirts... As women doctors began practicing medicine, they recognized all the unhealthy effects of irrational fashions and we're especially convinced that corsets could cause a displaced or prolapsed uterus, atrophy if abdominal muscles, damage to the liver, displacement of the stomach and intestines, and construction of the chest and ribs."

"the the president of the United States Grover Cleveland, to distrust and denounce the popular women's club movement that sometimes fostered these discussions. "These [women's club] are harmful in the way that directly menaces the integrity of our homes and the benign disposition and character of our women's wifehood and motherhood." the President insisted. "I believe that it should be boldly declared that the best and safest club for women to patronize is her home."

These were lines on pg121 from a current book I'm reading called Bold Spirit by Linda Lawrence Hunt about a true story on Helga Estby amazing journey of walk across America during 1890s. As she did that in limited time also had to advertise shorter dresses by wearing it with her daughter Clara across United States to win 10,000 bucks. This story is amazing, now I'm not one to really read books on history but I'm glad I did, this book teach me on some parts of what women had to go thru back then and her amazing journey. Im still in the middle of reading the book but I can't wait to finish it to see how her story ends and I suggest y'all read the book too!

It's amazing looking back on how they treated not only women's fashion style but also there lifestyle to now that women can dress how they want and get to work in office, ofc they are lots more problems in the world including all genders, at least this beautiful movement was successful and hope others will be to in the future.

Notice

light falls on my mirror and glares at me

every month on pay day I buy myself a pair of big silver earrings

that I seldom wear

what's the occasion if I do?

why do I own them if I don't?

they say God was generous when he made me

but they don't know what it takes

to protect my honour

that I didn't realise my gender

would associate me with

In cities of men waiting to ruin a woman's reputation

if she walks away or even if she doesn't

should I wear my earrings?

should I wear my crop top?

ah I'd attract more notice

why am I overthinking this?

maybe I wouldn't

If only men of my generation could see

women behind their bodies
