Transcript

00:00So, boys, they slap each other and abuse each other and nobody minds.

00:04But if you say one harsh word to a woman, she doesn't forget it.

00:07She says, you know, speak politely to me, mind your language.

00:10This kind of attitude simply means that she becomes very controllable.

00:14Whenever you want to control her, just threaten her with abuses and she will become so terrified,

00:19she has become a respectfully caged woman.

00:21And if she flies out, the entire society will say, oh, look at her.

00:25There she is, the slut.

00:26And the woman does not want to be called that.

00:28And why does she not want to be called that, again, that's a social value that's been embedded

00:32into her.

00:33They have discovered security within the cage and outside the cage are challenges and competition.

00:41Freedom is not really free.

00:43Freedom comes when you pay the price.

00:47And we don't want to pay the price.

00:49Even men don't want to pay the price.

00:51But it breaks my heart when I find women content with their own encaged and miserable conditions.
