Lately there have been a new trend of attacking women especially single women everywhere, as if the only problem in this world is a single woman, I understand this counter argument because for a period of time one side was demonising men and making it look like men are the problem and that every strong man with strong personality is a predator or a misogynist, I do understand that most of men are angry with that trend which I don’t agree that men are misogynists and predators, because feminism is not about it that, and a political wing stole the cause and made all about men putting target on their back, a target for their political gains, which I’m absolutely disgusted by, the same way I am disgusted by this new trend that is suggesting that every “single and childless woman” is toxic and miserable and angry, the same way the left made every single strong man “misogynist and women hater”, because if we as a society continue on this path we will end up being a miserable childless and toxic society.
If we go down this path, with each side labelling the other side and attacking others for simply living their lives and wanting to enjoy a good life, every side will lose, for example if we continue this war against each other, will I can say that “if every single childless women is miserable and hatful plus angry”, then I can say that “every single man is lonely acholic, who goes back every night to an empty house no family, just one night stands or he’s getting drunk every night, partying every week with no goals and no one to go back home to” see we can all respond to any attack to deepen the division.
I don’t know what kind of feminist you have encountered in the west but the definition of feminism in the middle east is still the old one, women fighting for their basic rights, fighting against the sharia laws which treat women like slaves, a women here can’t file for a divorce because men only hold the right to verbally divorce his wife, he can come back home from work and verbally say to his wife “you’re divorced” and that’s that, feminist in the middle east is what happened to Mahsa Amini in Iran, she was portly murdered by the morality police for not wearing her Hijab properly, feminist in the middle east is enduring abuse at home on the hand of the men in the family without having the protection from the state, unless the female victim is murder with cold blood which is called “ Honore killing”, feminism in the middle east is about having the freedom to love and living an independent life away from the family’s home, women in the middle east must fight a 14th century laws just to live as a normal adult on her on, without men’s guardianship, feminism in the middle east are not fighting over not shaving their armpit or who pays for the first date or if we want the man to open the doors for us ,believe me that’s not feminism that’s a privileged women not knowing what to fight for anymore, because if you have all your rights and you’re treated as first class citizen and your rights are preserved by the laws “civil laws” not the sharia laws then you might want to fight for everyday issues and pivot from the main cause. And the danger that comes out of the “childless single women”, the consequences on all women around the world are severe, because men in the Middle East will use this narrative, physically backing it with what men or anyone who supports those opinions by stating that “even men in the West are sick of you”. If you think of it women in the middle east still live in the 14th century with a modern theme on the outside, if you think that sharia laws are dangerous for the western civilization then let me tell you in the middle east it’s our reality and that’s why feminists in the middle east might not look like the westerner feminists, because the female founders of this movement didn’t care much about a joke or appearance or make up and all the things you get to hear today, it’s about personal freedoms and living among a society where women don’t endure physical abuse and social repression, it’s about social justice and living like any free human being on earth, not as a slave waiting for her master at home, or social master to give her the crumps of his mercy.
Feminism is about strong women wanting to be around strong men, no one want’s a weak partner and I don’t think a relationship between the two sexes are about who has the upper hand, if it’s about that it means you’re in business partnership not a true relationship, and as much I celebrate my femineity and feel blessed with it and feel comfortable being a strong woman while celebrating my femininity, it makes me feel sexier, the same way men should celebrate their masculinity and feel comfortable with it, because being feminine and masculine both can be celebrated. Both could become toxic when used for the wrong reasons or when the two sides declare war on each other. And equality is not just with our pay check, or paying for the first date, because we both know that we both can do it without feeling imbalanced, but when we both know how to balance our powers and make a harmonious relationship in society, because to be honest with you who wants to be in a relationship where one is the dominant and the other is submissive, because shit goes down you want to a have a strong partner, strong wife fierce girlfriend and a strong husband or boyfriend, knowing that when hell breaks lose you can lean on your partner knowing you choose the right man or woman.
“A harmonious relationship is a peaceful, supportive connection built on mutual trust, respect, and understanding, where partners feel safe, heard, and work together, even during disagreements, to maintain emotional balance and shared goals, rather than dominating or sacrificing needs. It’s characterized by positive interactions, ease, and a sense of unity, like musical notes that blend beautifully, requiring effort and flexibility from both sides. “
