Equality V/S Equity

Equality is giving every individual the same opportunities and resources. 

Equity is where resources are distributed on the basis of an individuals needs and problems. 

Donot do the mistake of considering them the same! They are different and infact, kind of contrary to each other. If I give one roti each to an adult man and a child, it will somewhat look like injustice to the adult man, for it will not fulfill his needs, right? Let us understand this difference better.

Let us take the example of our country, India. The gap between the rich and the poor is wide here. I give Rs.100 to a rich man and a poor man, this is Equality. But this doesnot reduce the gap between the two. So, we need such a system where there is equitable distribution of resources, which means the poor should get more, as the rich already has sufficient resources. 

This picture below will help to further clarify the idea of equality and equity in the society.

Feminism

*These are my views and opinions and are not meant to hurt anyone's feelings or intentions

Feminism is a belief that women and men should have the same opportunities and rights.This DOES NOT mean that a women can use her rights to dominate over a man. These lines need to be understood properly.

Just because you are a woman doesnt mean you have the rights to violate somebody else's rights. Let me explain through an example.

Suppose, in a crowded place, if a man mistakenly pushes a woman, she slaps him. We call it Protection and Empowerment.I totally support Women Empowerment and Equal rights. But,what if I reverse the roles and a woman pushes a man? The woman, if gets slapped, will surely file a case or fight back the man. What do we call this? Where did the equality go?

What I am trying to convey here is that if you want equality, learn to accept to be treated the same way as you treat others. As simple as that.

Once, I read a post that said - 'Going to the doctor to see whether its a girl or an abortion'. I was like -What? Not all men are bad.

Also, if you think deeply, who is responsible for their bad behaviour? Their families and surroundings. So, why not raise a child who respects not only girls but everyone.Give your boy the same values and etiquettes that you give to your girl or vice versa. Ultimately,  we are responsible. This way we can change our society and have a better future.

And thats the end.Hope you liked it. Do follow!
