The United States constitution was amended in 1920 to allow women their right to vote. The so-called world's oldest democracy, was actually a 50% democracy till 1920, providing only half of its adult population their basic political right to elect their own leader.

Britain had done it two years earlier, in 1918. France followed much later in 1944.

These little facts are only a gentle reminder that historically man has regarded woman as nothing more than a sex object that also reproduces.

In view of this bitter truth, it seems pointless to remain in a denial mode like an Ostrich, and insist upon Sita's emanicipated status in Ram's Rajya.

Two thousand and five hundred years ago, Socrates concluded that women are "the weaker sex." Was he right in his conclusion? Perhaps, the devastating answer is, yes.

Perhaps, women by nature are different from men. They are much more forgiving and much less vengeful and violent. If Ram was not man enough to accept Sita, then Sita should have been woman enough to reject Ram. She was an emotional fool to give him a second chance, and of course, he failed her the second time too. Man will be a man.

Ideally, considering what Ram did to Sita, she should have raised an army in the jungles, and directed her two powerful sons to launch an attack on Ayodhya and imprison Ram and seize control over his kingdom by force. That would have been a logical response, and would have altered the destiny of woman forever.

Instead, despite being born of royal blood, Sita chose to live a secluded life away from civilization, and eventually committed suicide. The ultimate weakness of the spirit is killing your own self, instead of killing your enemy. It is violence in inverse. It is an act against nature. It is an act of such low morale and low self-esteem that your basic instinct of self-preservation itself gets destroyed.

That is why, perhaps, Socrates was right when he said that women are weak by nature. Almost like a cow that is such a strong and muscularly endowed animal, but so docile by nature that it meekly suffers her cruel milking by humans, instead of fighting back like other wild animals.

One must understand that in a competitive civilization, there is no room for sentiments. The winner takes all. But women are, by and large, misfits to this rule, as they are more emotional and less rational. That is the root cause of their timeless suffering. Men too suffer when they are emotional in exceptional circumstances.

An emotional fool is bound to be a slave, and a logical and analytical man is bound to be his master. If you can analyse your enemy's weaknesses, you can enslave him by pressing on those weaknesses. Man is a political animal, and power is his ultimate goal.

One of the most fascinating sights is to see a lion, the majestic king of the jungle with awesome physical power, and how it behaves like a helpless slave to a ringmaster in a circus.

Raw emotions are no match to the stupendous power of logic. An emotional woman is no match to the calculated interests of a logical man.

Women have never understood this plain truth. Despite what happened with Sita, they remain foolishly superstitious and worship Ram.

An emotional fool is his own enemy. You cannot blame the logical man for merely acting logically and exploiting a slave to carry his burdens.

An empty drum, a fool, a low-caste, an animal, and a woman -- yeh sab taadan ke adhikaari. These are the slaves who actually DESERVE to be beaten.
