Cars for boys and Dolls for girls!! Are we really raising fair?!

We all must have heard or even said "I have been raised like a son "!

Excuse me....lets have a word of discussion now. 

Being a mother I can vouch that no discrete manual comes with babies born with known specific genders. The shades of pink and blue are a clear demarcation for both the primary genders. Having said that, can we infer that 'mushy squishy dolls' are for the gender denoting pink and rowdy clattering rows of cars are for the blue group??!

I recently celebrated my daughter's first birthday and unfortunately I take no marvel to divulge that she received a dozen of soft toys but not a single automobile plaything. Eh... But Why...??!  

The era has already set forth to be marked as an 'epoch of gender equality'! So why a 'miniature toy' would decide my baby's preference?! This practice is a popular Globetrotter and had left a deep footprint 👣 into the minds of human race.

Why a 'baby pink' cannot get amused in revving up a toy car 🚗  and why a 'baby blue' won't love to cuddle and snuggle with a soft Teddy Bear 🐻 ?!  What does a toy has to do with the sex of a child?! Aren't we already barring their young minds and taking a fake pride in 'upbringing without a prejudice'?! 

Never mind!! Let me believe that someday, the egalitarianism would counteract the predisposition because a baby pink can be a 'RAYMONDE DE LAROCHE' and a baby blue could be GORDON RAMSAY!!

"Nazar ka Tika"

The unilluminated hue of black is a typical manifestation of being gloomy and displays some dinginess and sombreness. 

Quite amazingly... The footing of the tint black is so queer:

"kohl (Kajal)" which most of the woman uses to glamorize their eyes 👀 is widely used on the forehead and feet of the babies as "tika" to ward of evils. 😈 😈. Here, I show No offence, to any antediluvian beliefs or any ancestral credences to the "Nazar Ka Tika"!! #bowdown #inrespecttoelders. In fact... The 'generation now' can carry on the legacy if they do not want any offending situation to erupt in a harmonious family 👪. 

But....if only blood can satiate Satan, then only carrying on traditional illogical reliance can nip the fate of budding minds of practical progeny. Hence, my mind depicts a very well-scripted scene few years from now. 

My year old would step in to her teens and would browse through old photographs and would question me "What is that black thing on her head?! " I have two choices to answer :

1) It's to beautify my baby :

No... I do not choose this lie as an answer. I cannot shape her future with a lie. The parents of today's generation are taking such brazen steps to discuss sensitive content like 'sex' with utter truth and confidence. Why should I be deceptive to a child with a nascent mind?! Moreover, My child is the most beautiful face in my life. And what could surpass "the most"?!

2) It's "Nazar Ka Tika" my baby:

No... I cannot choose this truth as an answer either. Almost a decennary from today, the World would repulse to live in a bubble and would seek explanation to every matter of dubiety. What could be my clarification to an irrational belief?!

Is the pressure of parenting more on a house wife?!!? 

Hands in hands, fingers clenched to each other and they both dreamt of a perfect house 🏡. They embarked on the journey with "togetherness" and sailed smooth for few years. Then with "togetherness" they decided to anchor ⚓ their love boat 🚣 to a levee and settle down for a new voyage of "parenthood" 👪 . And then they lived happily ever after..... ❤❤

Isn't the story similar to almost every couple in love?!
But isn't that virtue of "togetherness" of parenting gets faded away with the flip of calendar pages and things become more categorically defined like: "his job" and "her  job"?! Gradually, the time exerts more coercion on the new mother and parenting becomes a little unbalanced job. The house wives gets more intimidated when their soul partner utters "I am tired, you won't understand the work pressure "! This constant harrying makes the house wives take most of the pressure of parenting.

The weekends become a hibernating period after a tiring week for the husbands who just prefers to sip a chilled beer and play a good game of "daddy love" with the baby. And the wife's endeavors of switching between baby's need and stealing some private moments with her partner just go unnoticed. That feeling of not putting up the best foot forward for them who are her world makes her more often crestfallen.

So are you a #joblesswife or #busybeemommy?
