Constitution amendment: Our position on women's freedom
Pirate Praveen Sat 30 Nov 2019 4:16PMPublicSeen by 157I saw this post -> https://mastodon.social/@aworldinpages/103225247650283334 on Mastodon today and I wanted to have this as one of our basic principles.
Since we have to start somewhere, I am suggesting these words, but I'm sure we will come up with something better during discussions.
"Mainstream opinion on women's safety seems to put women solely responsible for their safety and always tend to blame the victim when any violence on women is reported. When society accepts it's easy to blame and treat women (the way people do) and get away with anything, that contributes to the violence women have to endure. We firmly believe it is the responsibility of the entire society to ensure safety of all women."

It is also worth noting the noticable imbalance in the male to female ratio in Indian Pirates. We should take measures to even this out too.

If we are doing this we need active involvement from the woman in Indian Pirates. Otherwise we'd yet another group of men with an opinion on how woman should be treated or taken care of.

Twoot is an opinion.
But when it comes to our position, what are we proposing here? Is it legal law changes for women safety?
