Is Afghanistan ready for a #MeToo movement?

14th December, 2018 · admin 10 Comments

womanDW: A movement similar to #MeToo is taking shape in Afghanistan — one of the world’s most dangerous countries for women — as more and more people are speaking up against sexual abuse.  In light of the recent sexual abuse allegations leveled by some members of the Afghan women’s football team, women’s rights activists in the country are hopeful that a broader conversation over sexual abuse in Afghanistan could take place.  Click here to read more (external link).

    Another brainwashing
    geo-political agenda
    to
    serve the dirty sims
    of
    the
    international parasites.

    Baghlani, why are you threatened if women are treated fair and equal? Your Taliban friends must be happy.

    It is an extremely complex issue under the global social context- don’t confuse yourself in terms like; EQUALITY”, man !
    ***
    **
    *
    YES; WE ALL MUST STRIVE TO RESTORE RIGHTS FOR ALL to the max- UNDER THE EXISTING SOCI/RCONOMIC CONDITIONS OF OUR DOMINANT ISLAMIC FAITH.
    ==========
    ============
    ==============
    You can not balance it all out if you are economically, socially and politically marginalized to the extreme- THAT IS THE GIVEN/ FORCED STATUS TO THE
    PROPLE OF AFGHANISTAN.
    .
    What I am trying to say is that it is totally meaningless to talk about women’s equality on terms of overwhelming Western and/or Communist cultures- you can not apply that model
    in
    Afghanistan AND, IN FACT, TO NONE OF THOSE SUROUNDING ISLAMIC COUNTRIES- THAT IS ONE OF THE
    MAIN REASON FOR ENDEMIC TURMOILS IN ISLAMIC COUNTRIES.
    ================
    ================
    To give you a simple example; when you liberalize women in Western styles, it might look great on the surface for some ; but, if you look at it logically you would not be able to reconcile it to the extremely religiously-conservative Islamic cultures
    and
    sub-cultures of Afghanistan across the board.
    .
    So; if you bring about those kinds of radical changes in favor of the Westetn culture, it willl SQUARLY put you on a vulnerable position for exploitation; mainly due to
    break-down of the family affairs as a basic social unit- you can not logically can do that due to many factors- you will be wiping yourself out in favor of richer neighbors and arrogant global military powers- they
    are lurking to mess you up !
    .
    I hope you understand what I am talking about- this world is getting increasingly global- if you bring incalculable rapid changes, you would basically making
    regular men and women of Afghanistan vulnerable to exploutation from all over; especially, from the
    rogue and enslaved elements of the
    neighboring countries who historically have had been, big time, victims of colonizing powers .
    .
    They have also much more stronger economies due to active interferences of the global arrogant powers- they are formalizing and dictsting the status of the regional economies- deciding whether who gets or not- depending on the current state of political affairs and their priorities.
    .
    Incidentally; currently you end up falling at the bottom,!according to rules of the games of the
    imposing
    global powers.
    ===========
    ===========
    The foreign forces are not there to help you, man- they are doing the very same thing that I am telling you- THEY
    DO
    NOT
    WANT TO BECOME
    VULNERABLE
    TO
    FOREIGN-DESIGNED
    “WHIMSICAL SOCIOECONOMICS”.
    ===============
    ===============
    They don’t give a damn about
    the women of Afghanistan- they just want to create rifts to exploit. AT THE
    SAME RATE THE INVADERS
    ARE STRIVING EXTREMELY HARD
    TO
    MINIMIZE THE RATE
    OF
    KILLINGS AMONG THEIR SOLDIERS IN EXPENSE OF YOUNG
    PEOPLE
    OF
    AFGHANISTAN WHICH HAVE, IN FACT, ZHAVE STEADILY MAXIMIZEF SINCE steadily 2015.

    AFTERALL; YOU ARE THE ONE WHO HAVE
    TO
    SAFEGUARD YOUR OWN
    FAMILY UNIT AND THEN,
    ((IF YOU HAVE A GOOD HEART)), THE EXTENDED LARGER CIRCLES IN YOU CITY AND COUNTRY.
    ================

    *GOOD LUCK !

    The above artice is confusing, goofy
    and
    totally irrelevant
    in
    war-imposed- men, women and children
    have become the victims
    of parasitic global powers.
    .
    IT DOES NOT APPLY
    IN
    AFGHANISTAN !
    ====
    ==
    =
    They invaded Afghanistan, in an order,
    to disrupt and deprive the regular folks from having normal and civilized
    social and legal lives.

  5. BAGHLANI says:

    They
    megalomaniac teams of invaders
    created
    one
    big mess- where
    are they now ?????
    ===
    ==
    =
    All; for the sake
    of
    global
    economic dominance.

  6. BAGHLANI says:
    December 17, 2018 at 5:14 am

    A case
    in
    point:
    .
    As you must have had been aware by now that the invaders do not have any sincere
    respect and sympathy
    for
    Muslims in general.
    ===
    ==
    =
    *That gives you
    a
    clear
    sense of it all !

  7. BAGHLANI says:
    December 17, 2018 at 5:15 am

    It is logical- don’t
    count
    on
    it !

  8. BAGHLANI says:
    December 17, 2018 at 5:30 am

    .
    IT IS
    A
    FAIR GAME
    AFTET ALL
    .

    Sure, you have heard
    of
    the
    Island songs.

  10. BAGHLANI says:
    December 17, 2018 at 5:32 am

    And the
    exploitation
    of
    vulnerable women.
