We Made Woman Weak Ourselves Poem by Rahul Sudan

Woman is not safe here
Not because she is weak
But because we made her weak
We made her weak from inside.

We made her weak from the time
She had her first fight with her brother
By telling her that she can't win from him
As he is a boy.

We made her weak
By not letting her to be at her own in dark
When she was a kid
As it was our mentality that she is a girl
So she is going to be afraid.

Then we made her weak
When we kept her inside
Unlike the boys who stay out
Who see the world the way they want
And she just stay in a limited world.

We made her weak ourselves
Thus it is not her fault
If she can't help herself
If she can't save herself
It is the fault of our society
Of our culture.

Where girls are treated
Like they have nothing in them
Like they can't do anything
They can't even save them
Thus the woman is not safe here
As we made her weak ourselves.
