Be it work or home, the modern age is all about gender equality in all spheres of life. However, why is it that only women are a commonly asked women, what they want? Why aren’t men asked the same question? Undoubtedly women have fought for their rights, but men too have their own struggles. In this battle of gender equality, we somehow forget about men’s emotions. Hence, on International Men’s Day (November 19), FPJ spoke to a cross-section of men to understand about their thoughts and what they want from society or their loved ones. From appreciation to respecting their time and efforts… the answers were varied and interesting. Here is what they had to say
Women are given priority in today’s times because it’s always been a man’s world until now. A good husband, father, and son are hard to find, and when you have one, you need to ensure that you celebrate this. There has been much discussion over the years about how men interact with women, but there has been no change in the trend. I’m not saying that this needs to stop. What I’m trying to say is that we should probably acknowledge that a man puts in a lot of hard work and effort in a relationship and that he is not as emotional. He’s unable to express that. So maybe one day in a year we can just ask him because everybody feels good, even if it’s a man, if he is asked, given a hug, and just told, “I love you,” by your beloved, your parents, your children, and even your friends. I think it’s important for every man to be hugged once and just acknowledged for all that he is doing for his family, friends, children, and parents.
