... Voting rights ...
Hello, happy and blessed day @freewritehouse gives us the opportunity to put our skills to the test with many creative initiatives to let out the writer that we all have inside. One of these is the Freewrite project by @mariannewest
One of the things that gives me more confidence is that you do not have to publish an award-worthy work, it is not the objective of the exercise. You can write from thoughts, stories, poems, anecdotes, songs or anything else that comes to mind in five minutes. Get creative!
What is the first thing that comes to mind with this phrase? Voting Rights, Particularly the first thing that came to mind is Women! For how many years we have suffered inequality, it is truly unthinkable, incredible or inconceivable that even in this 21st century women continue to be treated as disposable objects, what is happening in Afghanistan is so incomprehensible, women and girls suffer under the unusual and perverse yoke of men who do not hurt and do not understand that thanks to a woman they are alive, it is so decadent just to be the spectator without any way to save so much pain, so much suffering! Since the Covid 19 Pandemic began, violence against women has increased, it seems that for some we are only objects and it is like a pattern, women forgot the struggle to obtain something as basic and democratic as the right to vote, consequently they continue to raise their girls as if women were born to care for men, when we should teach them how beautiful mutual support is, promote humility and gender equality, no one should feel that there is a difference, we are all human, we are all light and energy, we have arms, legs!
It is impressive as a simple sentence, I manage to trigger a series of feelings and sensations so outrageous in my mind, ... Voting rights ... We all have rights, unfortunately not all are complied with, there is so much coercion or deprivation based on the stipulations of a damaged society, full of a double standard that turns a blind eye to so many injustices, we live in a society where most women are as macho as men . I remember when I was little my aunt told me learn to cook and clean the house so that I can get a good husband! Today I remember those words with shame, I see them so closed, so harmful ... Why didn't they tell me, study, set your goals, grow personally so that you shine so much that you get a life partner that flows and grows by your side ... I am participate that we do not gain anything by complaining, if you change, society changes, your life changes. Let's change our way of thinking!
Good freewrite! I especially like this point:
I was raised in a household where my sisters were taught to be submissive to men. It's an old, Biblical idea that keeps hanging around. Mutual support and exchange is beautiful ... and best for both genders!
@cliffagreen Thanks for reading me! support is very important because in my point of view we are all the same, It seems inexplicable to me that even in this century they teach us to be submissive and that our place is the kitchen! That really bothers me And the worst of all is that this is my family
