Why we Woman still feel bad about these kind of statements.
By now Indian woman should get use to this.
May it be a illiterate man or a CEO of Microsoft their willingness towards accepting the woman empowerment is negligible.
Why is it so difficult for men to understand that inspite of the multiple augmenting barriers a woman makes her place in family , society and importantly in her career.
Right from the beginning a woman - past tense as a little girl is given different values by her elders.
She is asked to dress not as per her choice but as what the society thinks , what the tradition says and how Men will look at her.
She is asked to learn house hold activities since her childhood with a single purpose of her getting married sometime in future.
Her choice of education career should again be in sync with the society , family , future family and so on.
While this little girl is growing she is constantly compromising on many of her choices in the name of family , sanskar , society etc
Her choice of friends is also monitored.
She struggles , makes her way and starts her career,
Men then suddenly brings out all the principles of equality , they don't realize equality unless she is a competitor or a working associate.
Why reservations for woman, why concession for woman, why do they gossip, why do they shop etc and etc.
Doesn't a Man gets concession in his work space for his family , social life , the frequent breaks for their smoke and chai ,
and Men they gossip about woman
What happens when their wife ( working woman specially ) are home waiting for them after struggling a long day , a long life , when exactly at that time their husbands are busy riding bikes, playing games, drinking or pubbing , no policy of equality then exist for them
God made woman and Man with their specifications ,
Woman with their tender physique , emotional heart , a brain molded since childhood with values which are not made for men. She still creates her identity , her space and career.
Men with no physical barrier , values given of being good , gentle man ,honesty etc but never nourished with statements like you have to leave your family , you have to cook , you have to work simultaneously , and have to do multi tasking you should not be wearing such clothes , you should not be out so long , you should choose career keeping your future and current family etc etc etc.
With favorable situations and different society values for woman and men any Man can develop his career , status ,identity etc.
Its always a challenge for a woman , Appreciate the way she is , Respect her career , her views , her identity.
She can be your competitor but just as any other male colleague.
Step into her shoes sometime , live her life for few days and then decide should she wait for karma to give a her pay hike.
Mr.Nadella are you by any chance insecured by the woman taking over the technology world.
I am sure you must have seen immense woman talent at "Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing, the largest annual gathering of women technologists".
Apology on your statement is wretched.
It not only brought shame to the nation but showed how Men of Indian origin treat and think about their woman.
Your Wiki profile has details about your father but failed to mention about your Mother. You probably must have not paid so much attention.
Loving and respecting your Mom ,sister in not enough.
Grades don't measure intelligence.Maturity doesn't comes with Age. You proved this statement.
All I want to say is Get well Soon !!!
SUSH
