I live in a typical brown middle class family and I am the only daughter of my parents. I am so much hated because Iβm a girl by my entire family Iβve always been a good daughter, good at my grades in school. I am doing MBBS right now which means Iβll become a doctor in a few years. But I am still underestimated by my family just because Iβm a woman. Iβm a feminist I want equality and it kills me when I see so much patriarchy in my own family. My dad earns my mom earns too but whenever she has to do something she wants she has to take his permission. He cannot get up to take a glass of water himself and he thinks its our duty to do so, it does not matter whether Iβm studying or doing something important I have to get up and bring him that glass of water or make him tea. Yesterday there was some problem in the kitchen and it got late to make his tea he yelled and shouted at me and my mom that I canβt even have my Tea on time. Today he says to me that all this is happening because he has given us too much freedom and says shoes are supposed to be kept on its place. I felt so bad it broke my heart. I have no respect left for him. I just talk to him because Iβm financially dependent on him and I have to make a career. All these years have not been easy for me when Iβm trying so hard to become a doctor, Iβm in my 3rd year now and this is the kind of support I get from my own family where Iβm told that Iβm a piece of shit and I feel so bad that I cannot do anything about it except of just sitting and crying
Heyβ¦ donβt be sad buddyβ¦
You are going to be in a very noble profession.
Like youβve to be strong. Once you complete your studies & be financially independent. You can talk to him that see Dad I am not liking your behaviour from a very long time & now itβs the time to change your perspective.
Heβll definitely understand this. Believe me.
Just focus on your studies. Dr Sahab ( I guess this brings a smile on your face).
