International women day

[Feroz Afridi]

On the occasion of women international day

On the day when you were born
[My] Pashtun daughter your father got worried

Your luck became fire for you in your own home
Your presence became an insult for your close and distant [ones]

The brother became important than sister in this very house
Sister is weak and the brother became pillar of the family

Among these very children one became weak and the other better
It’s a strange law of the powerful

The man’s orders are executed inside and outside home
Woman is silent no matter what comes over her

Male receives adore and is dear to everyone
Female is black, shame and dishonor

Every work is on her delicate body
Home, field, water, wood, grass etc

If it’s water or wood or animals
The cooking and feeding [of everyone] is her responsibility

She is working from the eternity to the end
[She] is taking grief for smile

She would eat and would sleep sometimes without eating
If there is any leftover from the males

When young she would live in her father’s home
When grown up she is abject in the other’s home

During youth she is the doer of everything in the owner [husband]’s home
During old age is guardian of the grandchildren

When all the home works are done [for her]
She has to take care of children, chicken and hens

This woman who has given birth to a human
Then why is the man silent over her throat?

پښتانۀ ښځه
نظم
چه په کومه ورځ وجود د ستا پیدا شو
پښتنې لورې بابا د په سودا شو

په خپل کور کښې خپل نصیب درته سور اور شو
ستا وجود دخپل پردی مخکښې پیغور شو

په خپل کور کښی ورور دخور نه معتبر شو
خور کمزورې ورور ئې مټې د ټبر شو

خپل اولاد وی یو بے وزله بل بهتر شو
عجیبه غوندې قانون د زورور شو

کور بهر د نارینه حکم چلیږی
ښځه غلې وی که هر څه په تیریږی

نر نیازبین وی د هر چا د سترګو تور وی
ښځه تور وی ښځه شرم وی پیغور وی

په نازک وجود هر کار د دې په غاړه
کور، پټی ،اوبه لرګی واښه ټول واړه

که اوبه دی که لرګی که ځناور دی
پخول او مړول د دې په سر دی

د ازل نه تر ابده کړی کارونه
د خندا په بدله اخلی غمونه

کله وخوری کله څملی بے خوړو نه
که څه پاتې شی کټوئ کښې د سړو نه

چه وړه وی د خپل پلار په کور دیره وی
چه شی لویه بیا د بل په کور سپیره وی

چه ځوانی وی د خاوند د کور هرکاره
چه زړه شی د لمسو شی څوکیداره

چه د کور کارونه پاتے شی ترې واړه
ماشومان چرګے چرګان ئې شی په غاړه

دغه ښځه چه انسان ئې زیږولې
بیا ئې ولې په مرئ دې سړې غلې؟

This celebration is ridiculous.

Not only the emancipation of women was used as a tool by the Capitalists to produce twice more by integrating the female gender into the economic/salarial system but also this type of celebration is pathetic as it is only a single day.

Feminism is an intellectually dishonest concept promoted by employers to make women work and contribute to the productivity because the real differences are between the poor and the richs, not between a male and a female.

When you see people in Greece rioting, there is no male group and no female group, they're all protesting against the elites.

The male/female dichotomy is a false concept because what is common between the female boss, the female living by rents and the factory-worker female, the woman who cleans up toilets ?

None. They have different social status and in real life, one group of women are enslaving the other group. That's called the "class struggle" and the fact that they're all women will not change anything to the situation..

So Feminism is a big lie.

I am so greatful to my father for not seeing or turning me in to his weakness. I am greatful to my brothers for not forcing me to walk in their shadows and I am ever so greatful to Him for reminding me that I could, indeed I could.. everytime I broke down saying "I can't." and thank you mom for not making me eat the leftovers.

every day is a celebration for women who are not oppressed by cowardly, insecure males.
strong men love women. weak men are afraid and angered by the power of a strong woman.
chauvinists for your retorts.
