FEMALE RAGE
A girl's girl perspective on losing it with style ;)
What does a woman need? only a woman knows. I am a woman. I am defined in history, present and future. I know what i want and need, but does it matter?
Ever know what a woman does when she reaches her limit? spoiler: there's lot of eye rolling, dramatic hair flips and few curses over at gossip girl tea party. I would choose a gossip girl tea party any day over some boys pretending to be Men and going to wars to show other boys how strong they are. I mean yes, no control over lust, anger, insecurity, jealousy, is what defines strong. While giving birth, bleeding every month, raising a child, having control over anger, balancing emotions is what defines weak.
Words and their definition were made by humans, but i think people who made certain words forgot to ask if some people are satisfied with the meaning or they want to go ahead and make up their own meaning of existing words, maybe sometimes make up their own words also. So, some kids out there got offended and made up their own meaning of certain words. Example? "Victim card" "feminist" "patriarchy" "misogyny" "rape" "sex" "periods". Well there are more, but notice how some are from the same field, must say these kids have certain obsession.
In the deepest corner of a woman's soul, there is a storm rising, quiet and waiting for the right time to rise, only to realise the storm of female rage rose only to feel misunderstood. I would agree to sit quietly if it was just me, but throughout history, throughout injustices, voices being silenced, ideas being taken away, bodies being worn down and god knows what not things, made a fury rose within me. A fury deep within core of every woman's heart. A fury that screams but no one hears, while whispers are being heard.
But the truth is everyone hears, everyone knows what a woman actually asks for, what a woman actually needs, but they choose to ignore. They can hear us but they don't want to acknowledge, they hear us but they are afraid they will lose their spark, they hear us but they fear it will shatter their fragile masculinity, they hear us but they choose to ignore us.

In my rage, in my fury, in the storm rising within i want to scream till i can't anymore for the all the women in history, for all the women today and for all the daughters of tomorrow. I want to scream for a Man, who chose to believe me, who chose to support me, who chose not to ignore my screams and needs, i want to scream for his needs, his support. For a female rage is against inequality, against injustice, against being treated like an object, against every person whether man or women who have ever been treated unequally, against not letting me choose for myself, not against a man.
If you care about a Man as a Man, learn about the injustice happening with them, learn about their torture suffering, learn about what actual problems Men out there are facing, as not being able express emotions or not being able to control lust is not a problem for you to have fury upon. Crying is not the only emotion expressed by a human, emotions do not have gender and saying that men have not been able to express their emotions from a long time is the statement made to ignore the anger, frustration, jealousy, etc they express which cost them and others their life. To ignore the actual problem and guilt tripping along the way.
Sita who faced years of trouble and banishment because she was kidnapped by a man and later rescued just to be called unpurified, and show her pureness by stepping into the fire, TWICE! Prove her worth again and again, why?
Our mothers and grandmothers who have gone through a lot, just to be called "innocent". No they are not innocent, they are victims. Yes they are strong women, but at what cost? dropping their dreams? spend the whole lives to serve people?
I get to learn new traumatic stories from history everyday about how certain women were tortured, or how much they had to go through, and worse part is the history never stops, the stories of women suffering in past keep coming like they are never ending. And even worse part? the present stories keep continuing too.
And how do i not feel rage when people believe in goddess shakti so much and go ahead and question a woman's power. They fear what they cant understand, they question because the realization and truth is too mature for them.
As women we need to realise that we don't need to look for power, we just need to realise the power within. A woman's strength is not just her patience and sacrifice, its her will. They say women are weak, only if they knew the pain we carry, the pain of all generations.
This rage is of the woman who has created you, the woman who has done so many inventions, the woman whose work was hidden behind a man's name, the woman who will sell her everything for you, the woman who nurtures you all your life while bleeding, the woman who goes through the pain of childbirth, the woman who breaks down and suffers in silence, the woman who is the balance of the universe, the woman who will still choose to give you love, the woman who would kill for you, the woman that can also kill you.
